    The nazis were overwhelmingly christian tho. They even formed their own special form of it that literally just takes out the jews.

    The soviet union specifically prosecuted christians, so trying to say they were the same is wild

      Using Christianity for propaganda reasons doesn’t change the fact that the Nazis wanted to restructure the German people’s belief system around their pseudoscientific racial theories and state-worship. Another thing to note is that the Nazis hated the Catholic Church, which about half of Germany followed, and didn’t tolerate Protestant sects which went against their ideology. Following Christianity was absolutely not a priority for the Nazis. They’d have absolutely gotten rid of it if they could.
