The mistranslations may hold up, but what is one supposed to make of this, linked to of course, from AIG's site...and here, and this article which talks about "Justice Jackson" from the Nuremburg trials saying that the nazis wanted to get rid of xianity?

Hitler came from a Christian background, and was supported by many Christians. His eventual aim was to "reform" Christianity to include his racial theories. Nevertheless, Christians continually deny the influence or support of German Christians and claim that Hitler was an atheist, which is clearly not true.

I couldn't find the link AIG gave, but I could find

' The track record of both intelligence agencies and the Christian Churches in the war crimes field
has attracted controversy. For example, serious allegations have been made regarding help given to suspected Nazi war criminals in the immediate post-war years by both the US Counter Intelligence Corps in the Klaus Barbie case, and Vatican officials as well as other senior Church official�s who co-operated
with Nazism and the fascist Ustasha movement in Croatia.'

There is no doubt that Hitler wanted the German Christian Churches to be subservient to him, and to have no independent political power..

But Hitler personally was a creationist.

'Das, was der Mensch von dem Tier voraushat, der veilleicht wunderbarste Beweis fuer die Ueberlegenheit des Menschen ist, dass er begriffen hat, das es eine Schoepferkraft geben muss!' Hitler, 27 Feb, 1942
