This is not controversial or an indictment of anyone, any religion, or anything. It's got nothing to do with correlation = causation, their starchy diet, what religion their neighbours (and the Allies for that matter) followed, or moral relativism. It's just true about the German people at the time.

I shouldn't even have responded in the first place, because I think it's a pretty silly derail off the topic, which is Islamic lunatics in the world right now, and I continued (and continue to continue) the derail.

It just rubs me the wrong way when I read "Hitler believed X, he didn't like the Pope, and the Nazis had some crazy religious ideas" and while that may all be true, the people who got behind it all and carried it out were Christian people. It had to be, because that's who lived there.

Then you agree. The religion was completely irrelevant in what happened
