Shebaqueenof--

Religion is exploited, abused as a tool for those without authority to gain power. God has been invoked by all religions to wage war against other religions and even different factions of their own religion.

Protestant vs Catholoc

Shia vs Sun'ni

Muslim vs Jew

Muslim vs Christian

Etc.

All believe in the same god, the real differences are tribal, national, ethnic and creed. It boils down to gaining power and securing resources. Religion is a "plot device" to rationalize war.

crazyinsane105...

Have you ever seen ME television/news? Have you watched or read any of the STATE CONTROLLED media from Islamic nations?

If the answer is no, then spend about 6 years like I did, then get back to me. If you have and you still think Islam is not being exploited by their own leaders to promote hate, mistrust and war, then there is something seriously wrong with you.

The average person just wants to live in peace. Islamic leaders are promoting war and hate. It's a FACT!

@jsinger101 So the only way to put the Germans back to there rightfull place of power and glory was the elimination, or enslavement of all other races, particularly the Jews. So please, don't say that Hitler killed Jews because of his hatefull Christianity. I take offense. Feel free to write me back :)

@jsinger101 Hitlers hatred for the Jews did not come from his Christian beliefs, he had no Christian beliefs! Hitler belived in the old pagan gods of Germany and wanted the new religion of the third reich to be old school German heathenism. His crazy beliefs thought that the German and Nordic peoples were decended from an ancient Aryan race, who were giants and had magical powers. But because of intermarrige with Jews the Aryans lost there size and powers and became just average people.

@jsinger101 Hitler was actually baptised as a Catholic as a child in Austria. Later on he rejected Catholicism and all that had to do whith Jesus Christ. After WW1 he was sent as an army spy to infiltrate and report on a political party: The German National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP)(NAZI). While in the party Hitler was introduced to the Thule society, a pagan and heathenistic organisation with activities in the occult, astrology, and a strong belief in Darwins theory of evolution.

@jsinger101

Das experiment is a german movie based on a real experiment conducted in san fransisco some decades ago. Anyway it's not proven that anti semitism was the main cause of attrocities in concentration camps we have to remember that alot of not-jews were also killed. Anyway see the movie and you'll grasp a hint of humans dark nature.

@jsinger101 No NO NO NO NO NO .. Please that is wrong... due the lack of an the means of wanting to destroy religion an Christianity... AN of course Eugenics Hitler did what, he did .. Don' t mix Jesus teaches with Hitler.... Please don't talk shit, like that ever again in your life.. Study Lessons!!

@jsinger101 well no, thats not clear at all. hitler wasn't really religious, the point behind nazism was to create a new religion around the idea of the master race, type it "the nazi's and the occult", its really interesting. The SS were meant to bread themselves into angelic status. type in the nazi babies, to see how far these ideas of eugenics were taken. christianity is not what motivated the nazis, and the extent to which they perverted it shows this. i am an athiest, by the way.

Ugandans are all religious fanatics. Boycott them all.

As far as your claims to the propagation of anti-semitism by Christians, also false. Are there so called Christian groups that are anti-semite? yes. Are they recognized by mainline groups today, NO. There are documentaries even by Jews abt Christians towns rescuing hundreds of thousands of Jewish refugees from the nazis, risking their own lives for the Jewish people. Christians were rounded up like animals into churches, and murdered by Nazis in France for protecting the Jewish people.

[lesliejs]

you have your facts wrong. did some mainline religious groups become aligned to hitler's perspective? Yes. Was hitler a Christian? If we consider the definition of a "Christian" as per the Bible, Hitler was far from it, he was more or less a god to himself, which is also a humanistic perspective.
