Is There A Link Between Catholics and Nazism?

Question

Positive Christianity is the religion that most neo-nazis use to fight against Jews because they believe that Jesus was a man persecuted by the Jews and as a result say that Jews are the lowest forms of life.

I also realized that most neo-Nazis claim to be Christian. Is there a link between Christianity and Nazi ideology?

Answer 1

I've had conversations with white supremacists who call themselves "Christian." These people do not care about Christianity for its on sake, nor do they judge it on its own merits. To them, Christianity is only worthwhile if they can use it to prove their own superiority over other groups of people, and especially over other races. So they see Christianity as a means to the end of bringing their idea of "order" to society. If and when they figure out that it cannot be exploited for that purpose, they will have no further use for it.

This is antithetical to the message of Christianity as understood by all orthodox churches. We understand Christianity to reveal our *sinfulness*--to reveal that we are not superior in any way, but that all persons are equal partners in our daily struggles, and that we all equally need God to reach out His hand to bring us to Him.

Hello,

No, hotter heads like Martin Bormann in the original Nazi party realized there were too many Christians in Germany so they had to put up with them for a spell. Hitler though born Catholic abandoned the church and sacraments at a very early age. Ultimately it was considered incompatible with National Socialism and Hitler himself was inconsistent in his logic praising Christianity in one speech and denouncing it in another. Eventually Christianity was slated to be eliminated or eradicated. Please check this article which will shed some light on my point::

Nazi Policy And The Catholic Church

http://www.catholiceducation.org/articles/history/world/wh0033.html

The likes of modern Neo - Nazis and the KKK are almost border line blasphemous or very foolish claiming to be Christian. The parable of the Good Samaritan says it all and trounces their claims. For those unfamiliar, Samaritans were Jewish - Assyrian combos. When Assyria conquered the Jewish people, some collaborated and married with their Assyrian overlords. They were detested by the Jewish people and the generations that came after were considered horrible mongrel bastards. Since Jesus said these sorts of people are your neighbors to be loved and cared for. the whole idea of discrimination based on race or culture is no better than spitting back in Jesus' face.

European Catholics, Nazism, and Islam all practice authoritarianism.

All three are monopolies.

Pastor John Hagee from Texas has said that Hitler literally copied some of the practices of the brutal European Catholic Spanish Inquisition against Jews, Islamists, and non-Italian Catholics.

Unfortunately there is a link between Catholicism and Nazism.
Hitler was a Catholic.

Charles Edward Coughlin (October 25, 1891 – October 27, 1979) was a Canadian-born Roman Catholic priest at Royal Oak, Michigan's National Shrine of the Little Flower Church. He was one of the first political leaders to use radio to reach a mass audience, as more than forty million tuned to his weekly broadcasts during the 1930s. This radio program included praises of Hitler and Mussolini[1] and has been called "a variation of the Fascist agenda applied to American culture."[2] His chief topics were political and economic rather than religious, with his slogan being "Social Justice," first with, then against, the New Deal. Antisemitism permeated his radio broadcasts...

Answer 4

Actually, the nazis were really occultists and killed the jews out of racial, not religious prejudice. If a christian had a jewish grand parent, they would still be considered a jew because they would not meet the nazi definition of the aryan race. Religion was merely used as a front to accomplish other goals. And neo-nazis are supposed to be white supremacists, not religionists, so why have a jewish savior.

Answer 5

Yes. Nazis believe in Christianity.

"I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so." - Adolph Hitler to Gen. Gerhard Engel, 1941

"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Saviour as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognised these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God’s truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognise more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow my self to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice...and if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people." - Adolf Hitler, speech in Munich, 12 April 1922

Answer 6

No.

Many Catholics and Catholic clergy died in concentration camps during WWII. (Do a Google or Wikipedia search for "St. Maximillian Kolbe" for just one example)

Today's neo-Nazis may *claim* to be Christian, but they don't even come close.

True Christians realize that our faith stems from our Judaic heritage and that Judaism is the root of our Christian faith. Jesus Christ was a Jew, and faithfully observed the Jewish Law.

I know that Hitler was anything but Christian... his own writings confirm this...

"Christianity is an invention of sick brains...The war will be over one day. I shall then consider that my life's final task will be to solve the religious problem." [Hitler’s Table Talk, p. 142-4]

"Christianity is the biggest lie the Jews ever told humanity"

-- Adolf Hitler, 13 December 1941.

"So it's not opportune to hurl ourselves now into a struggle with the Churches. The best thing is to let Christianity die a natural death," -- Adolf Hitler, 14 October 1941.

"When National Socialism has ruled long enough, it will no longer be possible to conceive of a form of life different from ours. In the long run, National Socialism and religion will no longer be able to exist together…The heaviest blow that ever struck humanity was the coming of Christianity. Bolshevism is Christianity's illegitimate child. Both are inventions of the Jew. The deliberate lie in the matter of religion was introduced into the world by Christianity." [Hitler's Table Talk, p. 6-7]

"Christianity is a rebellion against natural law, a protest against nature. Taken to its logical extreme, Christianity would mean the systematic cultivation of the human failure." [p. 51]

"Christianity, of course, has reached the peak of absurdity in this respect. And that's why one day its structure will collapse. Science has already impregnated humanity. Consequently, the more Christianity clings to its dogmas, the quicker it will decline."[Hitler's Table Talk, pp 58-62]

"Hitler usually concluded this historical speculation by remarking 'You see, it's been our misfortune to have the wrong religion. Why didn't we have the religion of the Japanese, who regard sacrifice for the Fatherland as the highest good? The Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?'" [Speer, Albert, Inside the Third Reich, Bonanza Books, New York, p. 96]

"The reason why the ancient world was so pure, light and serene was that it knew nothing of the two great scourges: the pox and Christianity." [Table Talk, p. 75]

"The Jew who fraudulently introduced Christianity into the ancient world----in order to ruin it----re-opened the same breach in modern times, taking as his pretext the social question. Just as Saul became St. Paul, Mardochai has become Karl Marx." [p. 314]

i do no longer extremely understand what i'm getting at right here. sure, there is not any atheist Vatican and all are distinctive. maximum in basic terms prefer to stay their lives in peace, like all of us else. And see you later as they act peacefully to all of us else, then what's the problem? i don't have an issue with people who don't have faith in God, yet I do have an issue with people who've an issue with people who do have faith in God. yet what's the hyperlink with Communism? nicely, have you ever study Marx, or Lenin, or Mao? and that i hate no person, yet I presume on your afterthought, you mean ideals different than atheism? For atheism is a concept as nicely, i'm hoping you realize. you will do nicely to be fairly extra sparkling. +IHS

The Nazi's shot Priest in execution style on the sides of the road and left their bodies to rot. They also recorded it for posterity so we can all watch it.
