Dear Christine:
Thanks for the excerpt. I found it quite interesting. This rather interesting excerpt, however, does not prove that Hitler was a Christian. In fact, the following part of the excerpt proves that he was not a Christian:
<<As a matter of fact, Hitler has very little admiration for Christ, the Crucified. Although he was brought up a Catholic,
and received Communion, during the war, he severed his connection with the Church directly afterwards. This kind
of Christ he considers soft and weak and unsuitable as a German Messiah. >>
To a Christian, the crucified Christ, who later arose from the dead, is at the heart of the matter. The crucifixion does not show weakness, but the great strength of His love and compassion for all people. So to say that Hitler felt the crucified Christ was unsuitable as a German Messiah confirms that Hitler rejected Christ and thus Christianity. Hitler was NOT a Christian and your own excerpt proves the point.
