With the national public debate against Muslims being allowed to build a Mosque in NYC, I think someone on the national stage should should help clear up a long standing misunderstanding in the west. That is, building a Mosque near ground zero has been compared to the Nazis building a shrine near the sites of former Jewish death camps, by "credible" national figures, and no one has stood up to their incredulity.
Unfortunately, the Nazis do to this day, have shrines built near every former Jewish death camp because the Nazis were Christians and their shrines are Churches. There is no possible debate that the Nazis were Christians, just a state of ignorance about that fact or denial of the truth by the Christian controlled media and education system in the west.
The very charter of the Nazi Party, referred to as the 25-point Program, stipulates clearly that the Nazi movement advocates Christianity and that its members may never offend Christian values.
The name "3rd Reich" refers specifically to only the Christian Kingdoms (Reichs) from German history and excludes German kingdoms that were not "ordained by Christ". For example if the germanic King Alaric I and his kingdom were considered, the Nazis would have established the 4th Reich. Alaric however, is not counted because his reign was before the Germans converted to Christianity.
Hitler himself outlawed non-secular schools and required all children to attend Christian schools. Hitler also established a treaty with Pope Pius XII which is still in effect today and protects Catholic Priests from legal action when they are caught molesting children in Germany.
Additionally, while the Nazis where well known for their organized program to pull silver and gold fillings from the very teeth of their victims, they neglected to plunder the vast treasure of gold that blatantly adorns the very walls of the Vatican. Who else but a Christan would hold Vatican gold sacrosanct?
Finally, it was Christian "Passion Plays" in the vein of Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" that Nazis used to create such fervent anti-jewish sentiment and drive Nazi party enrollment. The Nazi party and Nazi government even created travel packages and supplemented discounts for families that went to see approved "Passion Plays". How is western civilization is such stark denial that Nazis were and are still today Christians?
