Perhaps you can explain how come Christians were going along with
Adolf when he sent them in droves (milions, literally) to
concentration camps?

You are free to like and dislike religion, churches and believers,
but
distorting description of reality to make it more like you would like
it to be, is going to fail.
108 is hardly droves. It was Jews who were sent to death camps by the
millions...while most Christians, both clergy and laity, looked the
other way or even approved. Hitler rose to power blaming Jews and
Communists for everything and appealing to Christian hatred of Jews that
went back at least to Luther.
"We are at fault for not slaying them [the Jews]."
---Martin Luther, "On the Jews and Their Lies"
"What shall we do with...the Jews?...set fire to their
synagogues or schools and bury and cover with dirt whatever
will not burn, so that no man will ever again see a stone or
cinder of them."
---Martin Luther
"Whoever wants to be a Christian should tear the eyes out of
his Reason."
--- Martin Luther
"The party as such represents the point of view of a positive
Christianity without binding itself to any one particular
confession."
---- Adolf Hitler, in the Nazi manifesto:
We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity in
fact our movement is Christian.
---Adolf Hitler, in a speech in Passau, 27 October 1928,
Bundesarchiv Berlin-Zehlendorf,
[cited from Richard Steigmann-Gall¹s The Holy Reich]
"Christ was the greatest early fighter in the battle against the
world enemy -- the Jews. The work that Christ started but did not
finish, I, Adolf Hitler, will conclude."
--- "The Book of Political Quotes," London: Angus & Robertson
Publishers, 1982, p. 195)

Sure, there were religious leaders who opposed Nazism, such as the
Lutheran theologian who wrote "First they came for ... ." I cannot
remember his name off hand. There were others, but look at the
preponderance. Consider in the United States the role of
fundamentalists and evangelicals. They are almost lockstep with
Don-the-Con t'Rump, who is America's "big pela-man" and cult leader,
just as were Mussolini and Hitler. Religion is largely about do not
ask questions, obey your leaders and pay what you owe your religious
leaders (tithes etc) and masters. It is a perfect conditioning system
for a compliant population under fascism.
