    Equating Christianity with Nazism is bad taste and shows a warped picture of history.

    I guess this is an attempt to counter slurs by Christians saying Hitler was an atheist or whatever.

    Still, this meme not only lowers you to the level of these Christians, but also to the level of Nazi propaganda.

        If Nazism grew in a Christian monoculture, where did all the Jews come from?

        For the sake of debate, please refrain from personal attacks. We don’t have to agree, but can we do so in a civil manner?

        I get your point: Assuming Nazi Germany was nothing but Christian, the picture would be correct.

        But that was not the case. Some were even atheists! And some Christians were some of the fiercest resistance fighters.

        I also think it’s dishonest to reduce the picture to just that. It’s also an example of connecting your political enemy to some monstrosity in an undifferentiated way, just like the Nazis did.
