hitler evrim teorisine inanan bir tabiatçı bir ateist değildir. olsa olsa evrim teorisini kendi manyakça planları ve ahlak anlayışına destek olarak gösteren bir diktatördü. bilimsel bir olguya inanmakla onu amaçlar doğrultusunda manipüle etmek farklı şeylerdir.
Hitler seeking power, wrote in Mein Kampf. "... I am convinced that I am acting as the agent of our Creator. By fighting off the Jews. I am doing the Lord's work." Years later, when in power, he quoted those same words in a Reichstag speech in 1938.
Hitler's Germany amalgamated state with church. Soldiers of the vermacht wore belt buckles inscribed with the following: "Gott mit uns" (God is with us). His troops were often sprinkled with holy water by the priests. It was a real Christian country whose citizens were indoctrinated by both state and church to blindly follow all authority figures, political and ecclesiastical.
Hitler's references to providence and God and the ritualistic pageantry of Nazism were more than likely pagan than Christian. Earthly symbols of German valour and Teutonic strength were to be worshipped - not the forgiving, compassionate representative of an "Eastern Mediterranean servant ethic imposed on credulous ancient Germans by force and subterfuge" (the phrase is Burleigh's own, in Michael Burleigh, The Third Reich: a New History, Pan, 2001). A Hitler Youth marching song (Grunberger, A Social History) illustrates it:
sonuç olarak kendileri darwin gibi bir bilim adamının bulgularını kendi bozuk ahlak anlayışına destek olarak göstererek dünyayı savaşa sürükleyen ve dini imanı faşizm ve güç hırsı olan bir manyaktı.
