I understand some take quotes from him RUNNING for office 1920's &1930's..in an attempt to win the Christian vote.
But what did he say after he got into office and banned Elections...is that more accurate of his REAL feeling?...show me where I'm wrong.
Quotes from Hitler AFTER he gained Power:
Dec 10 1941 Hitler said: Christianity is a rebellion against natural Law, it a cultivation of human failure
Oct 14 1941: The best thing is let let Christianity die a ntural death it has reached the peak of absurity
Dec 13 1941: Christianity is an invention of sick brains
Dec 14 1941: Christinaity quite simply to the annihliation of mankind. The heaviest blow to humanity was Christianity<------Adolph Hitler said this and much more.
Why do some misrepresent history about Hitler and his obvious hate for Christinity?????
Serious answers ONLY!!!

I'm not sure, but I imagine some quotes that people use to show that he was a christian were quotes he used to try to gain the support of the christian population in Germany. Hitler was, after all, a politician. What he said he beleived in public may have little resemblance to what he actually believed--just like politicians in the US lately.
I've no clue what his personal beliefs were, but I have trouble with the claim that Christianity was behind the Nazis. I'm an atheist myself, but that claim still doesn't sit well with me.

Because we know so little of Hitler's upbringing, many assume he was a Catholic by birth and probably attended church at one point or another in his youth.
It is probably safe to assume that Hitler was not a Christian, and you are most likely right about him only trying to appeal to Christians to win their votes. Hitler actually seemed to have contempt for most religions and viewed them as thought without rationality.

Hitler attending Catholic school and the Catholic church in Germany sanctioned his actions for a time--maybe that is the very reason he hated Christians--maybe something very bad happened to him as a Catholic child growing up.

Holy Roman Empire.
Does that term ring a bell? Germany is the old Holy Roman Empire. Who put Hitler into power? Was he not the king?Research it. Was he not Catholic? Who put him in power? Christian he was not-Catholic he was.

Probably because he privately criticized the religion, but was still a believer in Christ. In my world that makes him a Christian.

Hitler was raised a Catholic. However, he clearly was not a Catholic later on - but a nationalist facist.

Hitler was not a Christian.
He was a demon posessed Catholic and the natzi party was sponsored by the catholic church.

Because they don't want to admit they supported his killing of catholics as well as jews, since most of the German people were good protestants.

funny because this is what he said afterwards
God the Almighty has made our nation. By defending its existence we are defending His work....
Only He can relieve me of this duty Who called me to it. It was in the hand of Providence to snuff me out by the bomb that exploded only one and a half meters from me on July 20, and thus to terminate my life's work. That the Almighty protected me on that day I consider a renewed affirmation of the task entrusted to me....
Therefore, it is all the more necessary on this twelfth anniversary of the rise to power to strengthen the heart more than ever before and to steel ourselves in the holy determination to wield the sword, no-matter where and under what circumstances, until final victory crowns our efforts....
In the years to come I shall continue on this road, uncompromisingly safeguarding my people's interests, oblivious to all misery and danger, and filled with the holy conviction that God the Almighty will not abandon him who, during all his life, had no desire but to save his people from a fate it had never deserved, neither by virtue of its number nor by way of its importance....
In vowing ourselves to one another, we are entitled to stand before the Almighty and ask Him for His grace and His blessing. No people can do more than that everybody who can fight, fights, and that everybody who can work, works, and that they all sacrifice in common, filled with but one thought: to safeguard freedom and national honor and thus the future of life.
-Adolf Hitler, in a radio address, 30 Jan. 1945
Providence shows no mercy to weak nations, but recognizes the right of existence-only of sound and strong nations....
This Jewish bolshevist annihilation of nations and its western European and American procurers can be met only in one way: by using every ounce of strength with the extreme fanaticism and stubborn steadfastness that merciful God gives to men in hard times for the defense of their own lives....
We have suffered so much that it only steels us to fanatical resolve to hate Our enemies a thousand times more and to regard them for what they are destroyers of an eternal culture and annihilators of humanity. Out of this bate a holy will is born to oppose these destroyers of our existence with all the strength that God has given us and to crush them in the end. During its 2,000-year history our people has survived so many terrible times that we have no doubt that we will also master our present plight.
-Adolf Hitler, in a recorded radio address, 24 Feb. 1945
