Well they have been known to have little boys in their mouths...but I'm not
sure if that counts as cannibalism!

Catholics believe Jesus Christ is god, well atleast 1/3rd of god. I
don't think the son of God could be considered Human. Some christians
have resorted to canibalism though, like the donner party in america,
the deliberate famine in the Ukraine, even in the Wermacht on the
eastern front there was said to be cannibalism, same with the French
when they bum rushed Russia.

Well you're kicked out of the club too. God, JC and the holy ghost are all
God and all individual gods.

Twice. You have to believe he was fully human also.

Maybe. That's now being questioned by historians.

Likely, today just as in the past you'd probably get excommunicated
just from telling the preist you are uncertain if you beleive in god or
not. It's improved slightly I guess though, since you probably won't
have to face the gallows for such an offence.

See, this is exactly what I and many other atheists are talking about.
Religion does not make a person moral or immoral. Neither does atheism
make a person moral or immoral. There are good Christians and there are
bad Christians. There are good Buddhists and there are bad Buddhists.
There are good atheists and there are bad atheists.
To lump the entire group together because of what one or a small
subsection did is stereotyping. If Pol Pot was an atheist (which I
doubt, but nonetheless, that seems to be the going thing), then he was a
"bad atheist". Hitler, on the other hand, was a Christian, but a "bad
Christian".
See how it works? One cannot call Christians bad because of the actions
of Hitler. One cannot call atheists bad because of the actions of Pol Pot.
However, if one covers up the actions of said "bad" person, they are
aiding and abetting and they become "bad".
When Pope Pius XII consented and gave Hitler the blessing to kill the
Jews, Pope Pius XII became a "bad Christian".
It is my hope that humankind can, one day, evolve past the lazy
stereotypes which has hurt so many people for so long.

Hitler wasn't a christian, he was baptized as a catholic but he had
fell out and turned on christendom around the age of 18, when he was
homeless living in Vienna as a Painter. He was kind of an eclectic
spirit, partial to Wotanism and especially the work of Nietzsche, and
social Darwanism, I even heard he had tried to get in contact with
Aleister Crowley just before the war but they never actually had
correspondance because of the allied blockades . Of course in speeches
and such he would say he was a christian to the volk, if he didn't he
would've never been elected to power. The thing is though, the concept
of a mutal moral code for all of humanity is wholly the workings of
judeo-christianity, who refuse to acknowledge that morality like other
examples of knowledge are relative to the people holding the values.
Which is a positive I see in atheism. The destruction of notions like
that and of all religious scape goating of human nature.

Sorry, but Hitler was, indeed, a Christian. You've never read Mein
Kampf, have you?
Some classic Mein Kampf quotes:
"I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the
Almighty Creator." --pg 46
"What we have to fight for...is the freedom and independence of the
fatherland, so that our people may be enabled to fulfill the mission
assigned to it by the Creator." --pg 125
"This human world of ours would be inconceivable without the practical
existence of a religious belief." --pg 152
"And the founder of Christianity made no secret indeed of his estimation
of the Jewish people. When He found it necessary, He drove those enemies
of the human race out of the Temple of God." --pg 174
Finally, in a speech made on April 12, 1922, Hitler summed up his views:
"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. 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 recognize 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."
Now I know you say that he only said that for election purposes, but
what you're saying is a logical fallacy. A fallacy of the "No True
Scotsman" variety.
Hitler was, indeed, a Christian and used his religion as a weapon
against the people he perceived as those that "killed Jesus," and that
he was doing God's work by cleansing the planet of those that have
"original sin".

If you beleive Hitler was a Christian, even a bad christian, you
obviously don't know
anything about Adolph Hitler or national socialism. Im guessing your
just looking
for an argumant. I have read mein kampf, and you doing a quick search
of
: Hitler + christianity on yahoo and showing a few quotes, isn't going
to change the
fact that He was not a christian and saw him self in direct contrast of
it.
Your " logical fallacy" argument doesn't matter if the man saw him self
in
no way as a christian. It might work for charlemagne or the teutonic
order
but not Hitler.

Sorry, but I do know Adolf Hitler (note the spelling. There's an F.)
and I read Mein Kampf as well. It's a scary, scary book. And I do know
about National Socialism. Your post above shows your lack of
understanding of what I know and don't know.

Well, when you say something as blatantly false as "Hitler was not a

Sorry, but I didn't look up "Hilter + Christianity" on Yahoo. I pulled
them from the copy of Mein Kampf I have in my bookcase.

Your " logical fallacy" argument doesn't matter if the man saw him self
in

So the "My feelings as a Christian..." speech doesn't mean anything?

It might work for charlemagne or the teutonic

but not Hitler.

Why would it work for Charlemagne or the Teutonic Order, but not Hilter?
Please be clear and thorough.

The morons forget that the good Christian population supported him and
accepted his Christian motivatation and justification.
They also imagine that the holocaust happened out of nothing - that
Jews hadn't been pariahs for killing Jesus (how could anybody but a
Christian call a Jew "Christ-killer"?) for the greater part of two
millennia, and that for a large part of this it was encouraged by the
church?

It's always amazed me that Christians bother to put the blame on any
group of people for killing their Christ. Be it the Jews or the
Romans to put the blame on, shouldn't they actually be thanking the
people they blame for the death of Jesus, since if Jesus hadn't been
crucified, in order to take away their sins while dying on his cross,
they wouldn't have their sins washed away like magic.
A story about Jesus coming to Earth, preaching for a few years, and
then ascending back into heaven, unscathed and unharmed, wouldn't seem
to work for them, because they basically think their god required the
blood of animals and humans in order to appease it. Sick stuff, imo.

I couldn't possiby be any more Clear. Hitler wasn't a Christian its as
simple as that. Of course he would have to say he was to gain power,
since the majority of germans were practising christians. Anything he
says that will Influence public opinion (the Quotes from rallies) also
Mein Kampf, is censored propaganda and therefore shouldn't be used in
an argument. He hated christianity but knew the only way to gain power
was in a democratic fashion. Not a coup, which he had found out the
hard way. Anybody who says "Mein Kampf" was a "scary scary book" has
obviously never read it. Have you ever read Anything by Nietzsche and
do you know how important his philosophies were in the development of
the NS state? Obviously not. The Teutonic order and Charlemagne
genuinely saw themselves as christians, yet at the same time invading
Heathen peoples like the Prussians and saxon cleaving the Heads of
anybody who denied Christianity. Going around chopping of Heads seems
to be the opposite of what jesus preached, but what makes them less
Christian than anybody else.
My grandfather served as a scout in the Hitlerjugend and in an
anti-aircraft squad near the end of the war, and has told me many
stories of what Germany was like back then. I have also read
extensively of NS and Hitler on my own accord. I promise you Hitler
wasn't a Christian.
a quote from Mr Goebbels
"The Fuhrer is deeply religous, though completely anti-Christian. He
views Christianity as a symptom of decay. Rightly so. It is a branch of
the Jewish race... Both [Judaism and Christianity] have no point of
contact to the animal element, and thus, in the end, they will be
destroyed."

Got proof of this? Remember, you say that Hitler's speeches and Mein
Kampf cannot be used.

Not a coup, which he had found out the
hard way. Anybody who says "Mein Kampf" was a "scary scary book" has
obviously never read it.

I have read it and it is a scary, scary book.
Chapter 11: Nation and Race:
For, since the inferior always predominates numerically over the best,
if both had the same possibility of preserving life and propagating, the
inferior would multiply so much more rapidly that in the end the best
would inevitably be driven into the background, unless a correction of
this state of affairs were undertaken.
This is scary, scary stuff.

Have you ever read Anything by Nietzsche

Yes. In _Ecce Homo_, Nietzsche wrote, "[The Germans] have no conception
how vile they are... [and] wheresoever Germany penetrated, she ruins
culture."
Not to say that Nietzsche was a Christian; he wasn't. He disliked
Christianity and Judaism as well.

and
do you know how important his philosophies were in the development of
the NS state? Obviously not.

Yes, I know Nietzsche's stance on issues. I know many Nazis used
Nietzsche as a book of quotes, but Nietzsche hated what the Nazis would
eventually stand for. He labeled this kind of thinking "genial
imbecility" full of "boyish blasphemies".

The Teutonic order and Charlemagne
genuinely saw themselves as christians, yet at the same time invading
Heathen peoples like the Prussians and saxon cleaving the Heads of
anybody who denied Christianity. Going around chopping of Heads seems
to be the opposite of what jesus preached, but what makes them less

Why do you say that the Teutonic Order and Charlemagne are Christians?
You say that they "genuinely saw themselves as Christians" but how do
you know that Hitler didn't "genuinely" see himself as a Christian? All
I can go by is what he's said in his books and in his speeches.

Sorry, but even though you say I can't use them, Hitler still said many
times that he was a Christian. No amount of pussyfooting and weasel
words can erase what Hitler said from the public record.


a quote from Mr Goebbels

"The Fuhrer is deeply religous, though completely anti-Christian. He
views Christianity as a symptom of decay. Rightly so. It is a branch of
the Jewish race... Both [Judaism and Christianity] have no point of
contact to the animal element, and thus, in the end, they will be
destroyed."

More from Joseph Goebbels:
"Christ could not possibly have been a Jew. It is not necessary to prove
that scientifically-- it is a fact."
"We have a feeling that Germany has been transformed into a great house
of God, including all classes, professions and creeds, where the Fuhrer
as our mediator stood before the throne of the Almighty."
From Hermann Goring:
"God gave the savior to the German people. We have faith, deep and
unshakeable faith, that [Hitler] was sent to us by God to save Germany."
"Although [Hitler] himself was a Catholic, he wished the Protestant
Church to have a stronger position in Germany, since Germany was
two-thirds Protestant."
From Rudolf Hess:
"With all our powers we will endeavour to be worthy of the Fuhrer thou,
O Lord, has sent us!"
From Heinrich Himmler (who attended Mass regularly):
"You Einsatztruppen (task forces) are called upon to fulfill a repulsive
duty. But you are soldiers who have to carry out every order
unconditionally. You have a responsibility before God and Hitler for
everything that is happening. I myself hate this bloody business and I
have been moved to the depths of my soul. But I am obeying the highest
law by doing my duty. Man must defend himself against bedbugs and rats--
against vermin."


This is how Hitler treated the christian church

Because he felt they were too lilly-livered to do the task handed to
them by God to cleanse the world of the evil Jews.
Note: I do not agree with the above sentence I posted, but that's how
they felt.



http://constitutionalistnc.tripod.com/hitler-leftist/id2.html

Noting the tripod.com address, I dubiously went to the site. The
contents of the site seem one-sided and misleading so I did some more
research into this "John Jay Ray" chap.
This guy seems to be a frothing right-winger who frequently retorts that
people that disagree with him are "Communist". Therefore, the above
site should not be used in any argument.


http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/mischedj/ca_hitler.html

Another personal website? Hmm...let's see this one.
This one is better than John Jay Ray's site. However, the site does
question Hitler's honesty. Why shall we believe what Hitler says when
he said "Christianity is a rebellion against natural law, a protest
against nature." versus "My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord
and Savior as a fighter."
Which is to be believed? Why does "Table Talk" have more credibility
over "Mein Kampf" in your eyes?

There's a difference Between what is false and what is propaganda. To
be able to decipher propaganda you have to understand what and where
the Lies are. You're quoteing Hitler and Nietzsche with the same
fervor of a christian going between the Jewish canon and Gospels. You
fail to look at the big picture, or your just not capable of it.
Im using Logic along with Private conversations. anybody who knows
anything about Hitler Knows he was born and raised Catholic but Became
repulsed by it. Anybody who honestly Beleives he thought of himself as
a Christian haven't the slightest clue, and incapable of understanding
National Socialism and the Mindframe of the people.

Yah what a scary scary paragraph, what if I told you his solution to
the problem was giving german women the incentive of having many
children by giving them Money and social support.
Goebbles Isn't hitler, also your quotes say nothing of Christianity,
they could be talking about Odin for all you know.
A person who believes Hitler saw himself as a Christian, calling
somebody else's opinion "misleading" is priceless. Im not even gonna
get into Revisionism since you seem incapable of outward objective
thought. Its really great you using propaganda to further your
argument but discounting those website as not "objective", again
priceless.
Hitlers only religion was National Socialism. Why don't you Read about
Operation tannenberg or other operations against the Church in Germany
and the occupied territories . He was to get rid of christianity as a
religion and european Jews as a people, to make make for something much
more important, National Socialism.

I wonder if the Jews in the concentration camps in WWII practiced
cannibalism. I have never researched it; I have never stumbled across
anything addressing the issue one way or another, but it seems that with
the widespread starvation and malnutrition, and the ample supply of
protein in the form of recently deceased prisoners, it would not surprise
or offend me if some of the survivors survived by finding "alternative

It isn't symbolic. The crackers and grape juice 'magically' transform
into flesh and blood. So, yes they do. The ritual modified from the
actual consumption is right out of the stone age.

If you were a Catholic, used "symbolically" and were sincere it would mean
excommunication for you.
The Catholic Church says that the wine and bread *are* the blood and body,
there is no symbolism involved.
Why it continues to look like bread and wine is a mystery.
Their catechism is on-line to verify all this.

The "why" only looks mysterious because it is based on Plato's idea that
"form" (the way things are physically) and "substance" (the way things are
spiritually) are entirely unrelated. Consecration changes the substance while
leaving the form as it was; the liturgical term "transubstantiation" literally
means, "change in substance." Other sacraments like baptism, confirmation and
ordination are believed to likewise change the "substance" of a human being,
without changing the form. Let us ignore for the moment that the Church had to
steal an idea from pagan philosophy to write their theology.
The "how," on the other hand, has led to some of the most bitter internal
battles in Christendom.

Because Jesus at the last supper changed the substance of bread and wine into
the substance of his Body and Blood all the while remaining under the visual,
taste, and texture of the substance of bread and wine.
God can do that, you know.

No, he's serious. I said in another post he knows more than everybody and
here is proof:
Newsgroup: alt.recovery.catholicism
Date: 2001-03-03 22:52:09 PST
duke lebourgeois is the correct spelling but "duke's real name is probably
Earl Weber.
No one can get through to douche lebougre.
That is, of course, everyone else's fault -- according to douche himself.
Why, he's the most mild-mannered of fellows -- he keeps telling us so. He
knows about stuff. He knows more about more stuff than all of us together.
Didn't you know that? He's told us often enough! Why, he even knows that
the people who set up the newsgroup and wrote the charter and FAQ are the
ones who should never post here.He knows that anyone who disagrees with him
should leave the group immediately -- that's what he told me, and Mac, and
in time will tell Apostate of Grace.
It's obvious to him that a newsgroup established for ex-Catholics should
welcome preachers bent on bringing us back into the fold.
It's quite plain (to him) that anyone who hasn't told /him/ some
overwhelmingly good reason for feeling him/herself injured at the hands of
the RCC is just a weakling and a liar, badly in need of his help. And it's
widely known that douche never changes anyone else's name, always reads a
post to which he's replying all the way through, and never lies.
He's a superb logician, never resorts to ad hominem attacks, never
introduces red herrings and never changes definitions in mid post.
He's great at mathematics, too.

So you have to pretend, right? But if you get caught pretending, your out.
It's kind of like the Emperor's New Clothes then, isn't it?

right? Can you tell him to make my dog speak human language? Any of them,
I have four. He's omniscient, he knows where I live. If one of my dogs
starts speaking human language (not "tongues") I'll believe in your god.
