as usual one of the biggest hypocrites here spews more intolerant sterotypical bunk. but i came to understand people this pathetic can only make themselves have a small illusion of self worth by denegrating the beliefs of others...in manyc ases it is all they have.

i feel immense pity for you dealmonkey.


the same for other small minded hypocritic people of your ilk. they preach about tolerance, but only respect people who believe the same as they do, and consistantly jump on any chance to belittle, hurt, and minimalize the beliefs of others.

i know out there somewhere hitler is proud of you, your just the type of person that makes people like him possible...just clever enough to be witty gaining the admiration of the equally moronic, but not smart enough to realize what a useful idiot you are to the elite.

Be careful with that "pity". They just love to climb all over people for saying that.

<- knows😉

I agree with you btw😀

"umm. Hitler CLAIMED to be a christian, numbnuts."


He was raised Catholic, and that's not a claim. He preached the same drivel we just heard Bugs deliver. 'Truth' this... 'salvation' that... As much as it might disgust you that Hitler had similar beliefs, that doesn't change anything. I'm sure there are plenty of muslims out there who think Osama only CLAIMS to follow Islam.

And many murders share your non-Christian point of view. It may bother you that these types of people share your views, but that doesn't change the fact that you're a hypocritic bigot.

Hitler was a christian numbnuts.


uhhh, i know people like to spread that myth, but the fact is he said things to different groups of people to get thier support, christians, atheists..it did not matter. as long as useful idiots could vote for him.

try again bigot.

 
you try again Shad0hawK. Hitler was a Catholic from begining to end, the Pope even denied Mussolini's request to have Hitler excomunicated.

i know, but they have to have something in order to feel good about themselves.

BTW here is a bit of trivia.

more people have suffred and died as a result of militant atheism than from any abuse of religious philosophy.



 
maybe if you leave out the Roman empire, the Crusades and the holocaust.

ROFL!!


the useful idiots are so historically mis-informed... to those many bigots in the catholic church he was a catholicand at times even quoted scripture

to the intellectuals he was an atheist, quoting marx and nietszche(he actually did more of this than anyting since hes was basically the head of the national socialist party(aka "nazi party")

primarily he was an occultist


like most politicians he said to whatever group what they wanted to hear to gain support.

Nothing wrong with what he did. Christianity is the true religion and you will go to Hell if you don't accept it so he is trying to save some people. It would have been bad if he had said "Time to convert now people because I am going to rAM THIS PLANE INTO THE GROUND IN 20 MINUTES!"

Didn't even the Christian fundamentalists who founded our country manage to build a little something about freedom of religion into the constitution? Doesn't that make you think perhaps you're just a little bit out there?

The pilot talking about his mission trip to Costa Rica - that's interesting, and I'd be glad to listen to that for a few minutes on a plane. The pilot calling non-christians crazy - that's a mistake I wouldn't stand for on a commercial flight I had paid for. If I was an AA exec, I would ask for an apology, in writing, from the pilot to all the passengers before allowing him to fly again.

but going through conformation does make you a Catholic until you are excomunticated, which Hitler never was.

Damn, the Religious Zealots are coming in second to the Communists?
 
Being a christian isn't something you get from your parents or from an upbringing.
If YOU don't have a personal relationship with Christ then YOU'RE not a christian. You don't get in based on who your parents are or what they wish you were.

At least according to your Religious Dogma

Awwwww, still a little raw from that last thread are we? YOU don't even know what my views are, so why the hell are you trying to associate them with "many murders" ??? I guess having the nerve not to see it your way counts as being a "hypocritic bigot."

What can I say, spoken like a christian HoP...

of course hitler would never try to promote himself as somehting he was not to gain political support...

ws hitler truly a christian? how about we let his own words answer that question.

Night of 11th-12th July, 1941

"National Socialism and religion cannot 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....
"Let it not be said that Christianity brought man the life of the soul, for that evolution was in the natural order of things." (p 6 & 7)

10th October, 1941, midday

"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 43)

14th October, 1941, midday

"The best thing is to let Christianity die a natural death.... When understanding of the universe has become widespread... Christian doctrine will be convicted of absurdity....
"Christianity has reached the peak of absurdity.... And that's why someday its structure will collapse....
"...the only way to get rid of Christianity is to allow it to die little by little....
"Christianity <is> the liar....
"We'll see to it that the Churches cannot spread abroad teachings in conflict with the interests of the State." (p 49-52)

19th October, 1941, night

"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."

21st October, 1941, midday

"Originally, Christianity was merely an incarnation of Bolshevism, the destroyer....
"The decisive falsification of Jesus' <who he asserts many times was never a Jew> doctrine was the work of St.Paul. He gave himself to this work... for the purposes of personal exploitation....
"Didn't the world see, carried on right into the Middle Ages, the same old system of martyrs, tortures, faggots? Of old, it was in the name of Christianity. Today, it's in the name of Bolshevism. Yesterday the
instigator was Saul: the instigator today, Mardochai. Saul was changed into St.Paul, and Mardochai into Karl Marx. By exterminating this pest, we shall do humanity a service of which our soldiers can have no idea." (p 63-65)

13th December, 1941, midnight

"Christianity is an invention of sick brains: one could imagine nothing more senseless, nor any more indecent way of turning the idea of the Godhead into a mockery.... <here insults people who believe
transubstantiation>....
"When all is said, we have no reason to wish that the Italians and Spaniards should free themselves from the drug of Christianity. Let's be the only people who are immunised against the disease." (p 118-119)

14th December, 1941, midday

"Kerrl, with noblest of intentions, wanted to attempt a synthesis between National Socialism and Christianity. I don't believe the thing's possible, and I see the obstacle in Christianity itself....
"Pure Christianity-- the Christianity of the catacombs-- is concerned with translating Christian doctrine into facts. It leads quite simply to the annihilation of mankind. It is merely whole-hearted Bolshevism,
under a tinsel of metaphysics." (p 119 & 120)

9th April, 1942, dinner

"There is something very unhealthy about Christianity." (p 339)

27th February, 1942, midday

"It would always be disagreeable for me to go down to posterity as a man who made concessions in this field. I realize that man, in his imperfection, can commit innumerable errors-- but to devote myself deliberately to errors, that is something I cannot do. I shall never come personally to terms with the Christian lie."
"Our epoch in the next 200 years will certainly see the end of the disease of Christianity.... My regret will have been that I couldn't... behold <its demise>." (p 278)


again, the simple fact is hitler was a person who would say anything to anyone if he could gain from it.

i suppose he would make a great democrat today.

Funny, your attitude towards others who disgree with you tends to be more like Judas than Jesus. I'd hate to see what you'd do for 10 gold pieces!
 
One should also note that Catholics refer to themselves as Catholics and protestants refer to themselves as Christians.
The Catholics' beliefs are quite different. Being Catholic does not make one a christian at all. The Catholic church seems to put Mary on the same high pedestal as Jesus without anything in the Bible to back that up.
When Mary came to visit Jesus, Jesus did make clear that Mary was not held up to any loftier position than any of us.
Mathew 12:46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. 47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. 48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? 49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! 50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Matthew 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
I am sure several of you have heard the repetitious "Hail Mary"

Psalms 97:7 - Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
The Catholics are graven image worshippers. They will pray to their gold cross their Mary statue their Saint cards. The christian knows this as folly because of God's word on the matter.

Isaiah 42:8 - I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
So as you see that is why we Christians differentiate ourselves from Catholics.
