Nazi attitudes towards Christianity[edit]
A number of Nazis promoted positive Christianity, a militant, non-denominational form of Christianity which viewed Jesus as an active fighter and antisemite who opposed the institutionalized Judaism of his day,[46] they denounced the Old testament, demanded the removal of Paul from the New Testament and changed Jesus into a German war hero.[28] As a result the Confessing Church movement was started in opposition to the nazification of the Protestant churches. In 1937 all Confessing Church seminaries and teaching was banned. Dissident Protestants were forbidden to attend universities. During Hitler's dictatorship, more than 6,000 clergymen, on the charge of treasonable activity, were imprisoned or executed.[47] The same measures were taken in the occupied territories, in French Lorraine, the Nazis forbid religious youth movements, parish meetings, scout meetings, and church assets were taken. Church schools were closed, and teachers in religious institutes were dismissed. The episcopal seminary was closed, and the SA and SS desecrated churches, religious statutes and pictures. 300 clergy were expelled from the Lorraine region, monks and nuns were deported or forced to renounce their vows.[48]
The Nazi leadership made use of both Christian symbolism, indigenous Germanic pagan imagery, and ancient Roman symbolism in their propaganda. However, the use of pagan symbolism worried some Protestants.[49] Many Nazi leaders, including Adolf Hitler,[47] subscribed either to a mixture of pseudoscientific theories, particularly Social Darwinism,[50] or to mysticism and occultism, which was especially strong in the SS.[51][52] Central to both groupings was the belief in Germanic (white Nordic) racial superiority. The existence of a Ministry of Church Affairs, instituted in 1935 and headed by Hanns Kerrl, was hardly recognized by ideologists such as Alfred Rosenberg or by other political decision-makers.[53] A relative moderate, Kerrl accused dissident churchmen of failing to appreciate the Nazi doctrine of "Race, blood and soil" and gave the following explanation of the Nazi conception of "Positive Christianity", telling a group of submissive clergy in 1937:[5

So the Nazis pervert Christianity into a supporting theocracy of Naziism, and expell or execute all other religious worshipers... and this leads you to claim they were Christians?
Do you even pay attention to the idiocy you spew anymore?
the nazis did exactly what christianity had been doing for the previous 1000 years.
