Nazi anti-Christian and anti-Catholic utterances
Extent and Medium
2 online resources (2, 15 pages)
Scope and Content
The files contain quotes by Nazi leaders concerning religion, in particular Christianity and Catholicism. The nation should stand united without religious influences. The German law only, and not the law of the Vatican, should be respected, therefore, the Nazi party should be the only one to have power. The Church has failed to stop the emergence of Liberalism, Marxism and Bolshevism which is why the people have lost faith. However, thanks to National Socialism millions of people have found their faith again.
