To be fair to the original issue raised here, somewhat offtopic by now
but probably still somewhat relevant because of religious affiliations
of many -- though not all -- Goanetters, is not just whether Hitler
*was* a Catholic.
The debate was more nuanced. Of course, one can understand why it is
being distorted along the way, including by those who spare no chance
ot talk about Islamic Fascism at every slightest opportunity!
We were considering, correct me if I'm wrong:
* Whether Hitler made use of religion.
* Why next to nobody talks about Hitler's religious roots, though an
Osama would obviously benefit from no such luxury.
* Consequently, whether the Catholic Church took a policy of benign
overlooking of Nazism, did what it could to battle it, could have done
much more, or simply itself benefitted from the regime (or a
comination of some of these parts).
In sum, the attempt to reduce this to a "Was Hitler a Catholic" debate
is a way of subverting the issue. FN
