[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1273733, member: 7966"] That was some serious cherry picking and gerrymandering to piece that together from the article. In the typical piece of literary article, the writer: Tells the reader what he's going to tell you Tells you Summarizes for the reader what he said Speed readers use this approach to read most things: First paragraph First sentence of each of the paragraphs Last paragraph In the article, the first 5 sentences pretty summarizes what the author and most historians believe: [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler']Adolf Hitler[/URL] was raised by an anticlerical, skeptic father and a devout Catholic mother. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baptism']Baptized[/URL] and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_%28Catholic_Church%29']confirmed[/URL] as a child in Austria, he ceased to participate in the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrament']sacraments[/URL] after childhood. In adulthood, he became disdainful of Christianity, but in power was prepared to delay clashes with the churches out of political considerations.[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-1'][1][/URL][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-2'][2][/URL][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-3'][3][/URL][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-4'][4][/URL][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-5'][5][/URL] It is generally believed by historians that Hitler's long term aim was the eradication of Christianity in Germany.[URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-Bundle-6'][6][/URL][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_religious_views#cite_note-Concise-7'][7][/URL] He did not believe in the Judeo-Christian notion of [I][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_in_Christianity']God[/URL][/I], though various scholars consider his final religious position may have been a form of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deism']deism[/URL]. Others consider him "atheist". He also lead the NAZI party which was Socialist in it's beliefs. Hitler took over this Socialist form of government to become a dictator. Much like Obama would do if he could. [/QUOTE]
