How can they say that Hitler was an atheist when he has gone on the record making these statements:
"National Socialism and religion cannot exist together" (1941)
"The heaviest blow that ever struck humanity was the coming of Christianity." (1941)
"Let it NOT be said that Christianity brought man the life of the soul, for that evolution was in the natural order of things." (1941)
"Christianity is an invention of sick brains: one could imagine nothing more senseless." (1941)
"We'll see to it that the Churches cannot spread abroad teachings in conflict with the interests of the State." (1941)
Also, Hitler told Hermann Rauschnig that he inten"to stamp out Christianity root and branch." (1933)
He also said: "One is either a Christian or a German -you cannot be both"

So why do people still say he was an atheist?

Much the same as many of our current administration claims to be born again christians, their actions and policies indicate just the opposite tendencies. In many of Hitler's speeches he stated he felt he was doing god's work in bringing Germany back to a position of power and he often talked about himself as a christian. Sounds strangely familiar.

He did not believe in a christian God. He did have some ideas about bringing back the worship of the old German gods. Wotan, Thor and the like.

If your statements are accurate quotations, then he was not exactly a born-again Christian. Since you seem to think he was not an atheist, what religion do you think he professed? Hint: He was baptized a Roman Catholic.

I think neither Christians nor Athiests want to claim Hitler as one of their own. I've seen evidence on both sides.
