I am sorry that someone gave you four negative checks. Yet, I am truly sorry if ALL you were doing was speaking the truth. However, if you brought up the fact with the intent of insulting another, then you only suffered the consequence of your attack. So, you must deal with that if that is what happened.
Still, I will answer a little on what you have written. I don't know what fact you brought up about Hitler and what context you put it in. But, yes Hitler was a Christian. In fact, it is said he was in the seminary studying for the Catholic priesthood. Yet, this is not an indicment on the Catholic Church because he left the seminary and did not become a priest. No one knows for sure when and how, but we know that he surely lost his way. He was greatly influenced by Fredrich Neitsche (yet he did mistunderstand a lot of what Neitsche was saying). God have mercy on the man and so may we. However, that is all I know of him.
May the Lord bless and keep you. May He let the light of His face shine upon you.
God's and your beast of burden

No Hitler was not a christian. He may have claimed to be one for PR purposes but in private life he believed that Christianity was a Jewish plot to undermine the west by inculcating concepts like compassion and generosity to the weak which were anathema to Hitler. He thought the weakest should be eradicated.
He was brought up Catholic but discarded all observance as soon as he left home to loaf about Vienna trying to get into art school. He was never in seminary.
Like someone once said, just because you're born in a stable doesn't make you a horse.
If you have any proof of your accusation - perhaps you should post your sources.

I don't think that Hitler's Christianity is very relevant as an explanation of his behavior, anymore than Stalin's atheism explains his. Rather than try to use these people to attack various belief systems, we should recognize that they were uniquely evil people.
Do we think that Hitler and Stalin demonstrate that people with mustaches are evil? That's about as reasonable a conclusion.
When the religious right engages in evil, they're wrong because they're engaged in that evil, not because they share a religious faith with a historical mass murderer.

No one seems to understand that what you say, and what is real, are two different things.
Yes, Hitler was Christian.
In fact, he was inspired by a play performed at Christmas time in the South of Germany. This play portrayed Jews as evil, and he sought to remedy it.
I support you, man.

He may have referred to as himself a christian besides the undeniable fact that the actuality is, he wasn't. Christians have sturdy morals and we hear to God. God in no way informed him to bypass kill threat free Jews, he did that thoroughly on his own because he replaced into delusional. I basically see him as a psychopath and his Christians feedback were only a cover up. because if he had honestly examine the bible, he wouldn't have executed any of this. he may no longer were an atheist and it truly is totally attainable that he believed in some type of pretend god made up in his head. besides the undeniable fact that the actuality is, he's now in hell with different atheists. so, you may't say he replaced right into a Christian. i'm so unwell of atheists like you making such impolite and misrepresenting statements. i recognize the way you're saying "highly in the present day even as all you gotta do is seem IT UP!!!" why do not you seem up God? why do not you surely bypass examine the bible?

Just because you said it don't make it a FACT. Prove it.
Besides Hitler delved into a little of everything religious from
Christianity to Norse Mythology. In the end what he did was
NOT Christ-like so I say he was NOT a Christian!!

Bad example of a christian. I see your point, but there's bad apples in any barrell. I doubt most Christians reading this would back his views.

Hitler claimed to be a Christian. It is quite obvious from his actions that he did not live up to what he claimed, in more ways than one.
