Who is worse: the Christian God, or Adolf Hitler?

Dude, I don't know where you get your views, but they are not a reflection of God as revealed in the Holy Bible.  Have you ever read it?  Ever had a serious discussion with real people who have also studied it and could have dismissed it all as bunk, but instead they "bet the farm", their lives, reputations, livelihoods on it.  Talk to some real Christians in person.  Anonymity on a yahoo answers forum is not going to get you the real answers you're seeking.

Nazi Germany and the third reich. Hitler

Of course it is...but that's inevitable given your earlier point about using the bible to justify just about anything.\n\nI am sure Hitler could have found good cause to use the bible to justify his actions had he not been an atheist.

Afraid, no - I despise them because they slow down progress (ready to burn and kill people who claimed that the Earth was round, and every scientific progress since) and with cold, zombie-like determination harass everyone else to follow their rules, spouting horrible insults and threats. The Bosnian war was started by Christians. Hitler's army was Christian. All those wars were actively encouraged, blessed and supported by the respective churches. So all evidence points that they are fascist-like, genocidal and totalitarian, brain-dead bunch of hypocrites who preach heterosexuality, monogamy and morality, and adhere to not a single of those standards (Mormons are Christians and promote polygamy, in case you felt like arguing; for the rest, check Dumbya and his republicans).

bolter_70002 you should be ashamed of your self using Hilter as a comparision to Christians is just plain ignorant.  Please show some respect for those who have faith.  As far as the question goes, people are flawed, some people like to pretend to be christians so that can have a reason to be hatefull, that is not christian though.  I will make the statement maybe others don't want to if you are racist or belive yourself to be above other human beings than you are no christian just a wolve in sheeps clothing, being a follower of Christ is about being humble, and leaving a life of servitude, Christ said what you do for the least of those you do unto ME.  Which is pretty clear, you hate on someone you hate on Christ, and that is a bad place to be, Christians who are not continualy striving to be all that Christ has called them to be are not the kind of Christians I want to be associated with.  Please understand we all fall short of Gods glory but the wise man asks Christ to help him up.

Hitler was more evil then history wrote.  Some of the things in the history books are really toned down from what happened.  My father was in World War II.  He told me first hand stories about what he saw during the war.

Hitler did not all of a sudden say, 'Hey, lets band everyone together by hating Jews.' The hatred of Jews in Europe goes all the way back to the time it became Christian. Passages in the Christian's New Testament paint "The Jews" as being the children of the devil, hypocritical, and interested only in money rather than in Gd. \n\nWho wrote the following???\n\n"""But since I learned that those miserable and accursed people do not cease to lure to themselves even us, that is, the Christians, I have published this little book, so that I might be found among those who opposed such poisonous activities of the Jews and who warned the Christians to be on their guard against them....Now, in order to strengthen our faith, we want to deal with a few crass follies of the Jews in their belief and their exegesis of the Scriptures, since they so maliciously revile our faith. If this should move any Jew to reform and repent, so much the better. We are now not talking with the Jews but about the Jews and their dealings, so that our Germans, too, might be informed....Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore, in John' 3:39 he states: "If you were Abraham's children would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil." It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.... For they are a heavy burden, a plague, a pestilence, a sheer misfortune for our country. Proof for this is found in the fact that they have often been expelled forcibly from a country, far from being held captive in it....Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer self-glory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.......but then eject them forever from this country. For, as we have heard, God's anger with them is so intense that gentle mercy will only tend to make them worse and worse, while sharp mercy will reform them but little. Therefore, in any case, away with them!"""\n\nIt was Martin Luther, one of the founders of the Protestant movement in Christianity!

Adolf Hitler was raised as a Roman Catholic by his parents, as was customary where he grew up. His father, though nominally a Catholic, was a freethinker, his mother a practising Catholic. Young Adolf was baptized, served as an altar boy, and received the sacraments. Influenced by pan-german nationalism and social darwinism, he began to reject the Church and Catholicism as an adolescent, according to his own accounts. After he had left home, he stopped attending mass and receiving sacraments altogether, thereby ceasing to be a practising Catholic.[5]\n\nHitler's religious beliefs changed over the years and as they have to be gathered from his numerous public and private statements, which present a discrepant picture, they will remain ambiguous. In public statements, Hitler frequently spoke positively about the Christian heritage of German culture and his own Christianity, which appealed to deeply-rooted sentiments within the electorate[6]. Moreover, Hitler never formally or publicly left the church[7]. However, Hitler’s private statements were more mixed. There are numerous alleged negative statements about Christianity and the Church reported by Hitler’s intimates, e.g. Goebbels or Speer.[8].\n\nThough Hitler rejected traditional Christianity in general, he was far from irreligious. Joseph Goebbels, for example, notes in a diary entry in 1939: “The Führer is deeply religious, but deeply anti-Christian. He regards Christianity as a symptom of decay.” \n\n...\n\nIn contrast to other Nazi leaders, Hitler did not adhere to esoteric ideas, occultism or neo-paganism and even ridiculed such beliefs in private. Drawing on Higher Criticism and some branches of theologically liberal Protestantism, Hitler advocated what he termed Positive Christianity, purged of everything that Hitler found objectionable. Hitler never demoted Jesus himself, but viewed traditional Christianity as a corruption of the original ideas of Jesus[10], who was reinvented as an Aryan opponent of the Jews. In 1927 he said: "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized 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."[11] Hitler did not believe in a "remote, rationalist divinity" but "in one providential, active, deity."[12]. In Hitler's belief this god had created the world, in which different races fought each other for survival along social darwinist lines. He often referred to "providence" guarding and guiding the "Aryan race", supposedly the bearer of civilisation, in its fight against the Jews, supposedly the enemies of all civilisation. Ultimately, he considered himself a Messiah-like saviour of the German people.\n\nAs the Protestant Church was more open to such reinterpretations, Hitler demonstrated a preference for Protestantism over Catholicism.[13] His views were supported by the German Christians movement, but rejected by the Confessing Church. According to Steigmann-Gall, Hitler felt "remorse that the churches had failed to back him and his movement as he had hoped."[14], stating according to Albert Speer: "Through me the Protestant Church could become the established church, as in England”\n\nDespite his rejection of the Catholic Church, Hitler admired the pomp of Catholic ritual and the hierarchical organisation of the clergy. Later, he drew on these elements, organizing his party along hierarchical lines and including liturgical forms into events or using phraseology taken from hymns. Because of these liturgical elements, Hitler's Messiah-like status and the ideology's all-encompassing nature, the Nazi movement is sometimes termed a "political religion".

It was up to Hitler to ask for forgiveness for his sins.\n\nnobody else can do that for you.

None... til Ratzinger was put in. I'm Pagan, so, that's bad news for me... especially 'cause Pagans were killed in the Holocaust, and that guy's track record's none too good.

Hitler was not an atheist, but your point is a fair one.  You cannot accurately judge an individual by his association with a particular race, religion, or other group.  Neither can you say that each member of the group is typical of its membership.

adolf hitler?\n oh and you just said it lol

Brooke, I sympathize. They can't handle historical fact - all they have is their one book, and they believe everything in it. So outside fact has no meaning. If the bible told them the sky was pink, they would look at it and say "what a pretty pink sky". If you told them it was blue, they would argue forever about how the bible says it's pink, so it's pink. They still refuse to accept that Hitler was a Christian, even though we've provided tons of evidence that he slaughtered the Jews due to his religious beliefs. Don't take it too personally - the christers don't like people messing with their world view.
