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." (Bormann 1953, pp. 119-120).9th April, 1942, dinner: "There is something very unhealthy about Christianity." (Bormann 1953, 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." (Bormann 1953, p. 278).(Undated): "Do you really believe the masses will be Christian again? Nonsense! Never again. That tale is finished. No one will listen to it again. But we can hasten matters. The parsons will dig their own graves. They will betray their God to us. They will betray anything for the sake of their miserable jobs and incomes." (Lutzer 1995, p. 104.)(Undated): "Historically speaking, the Christian religion is nothing but a Jewish sect.... After the destruction of Judaism, the extinction of Christian slave morals must follow logically.... Ah, the God of the deserts, that crazed, stupid, vengeful Asiatic despot with his power to make laws!" (Robinson 1943).Quotes from other Nazis:Martin Bormann: "The Christian religion and National Socialist doctrines are not compatible." (Bormann 1945).Joseph Goebbels, 12/28/1939: "The Fuhrer is deeply religious, 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." (Boelcke 1970).Heinrich Himmler: "We shall not rest until we have rooted out Christianity." (NAACD 2005).Hans Kerrl, 11/19/1935: "Adolf Hitler is the true Holy Ghost." (Kerrl 1935).Ludendorff, 1935: "The days of the Cross are counted. We must deliver the German nation from the pernicious influence of Christianity." (Quoted in Anti-Semitism Throughout the Ages, by Count Heinrich Coudenhove-Kalergi. 1935.)Robert Ley, 1937: "Catastrophe was only narrowly averted. It was all due to the faith of one man! Yes, you who called us godless, we found our faith in Adolf Hitler, and through him found God once again. That is the greatness of our day, that is our good fortune!" (Ley 1937).Paul Schnabel, 7/04/1935: "In a certain sense National Socialism is religion, for it does not require its partisans to be convinced of the rightness of its teachings but to believe in it." (Schnabel 1935).Quotes from US government documents (1946-47):"The attention of the Tribunal is next invited to Document 840-PS, previously introduced into evidence as Exhibit USA-355. The Tribunal will recall that this was a Bormann decree of 14 July 1939, referring
