A Comm for Historymemes

There are serious threads of neopaganism in evangelical Christianity now – just look at ‘crunchy moms’.

That's... not even close.

Really, look into the religious practices of Nazi institutions and high-ranking Nazis.

I feel like my original point has been lost. I’m specifically speaking against the ‘no true Scotsman’ thing we’re seeing, and how that thinking is leading many people to accidentally cheerlead for the very forces that are ripping us apart.

There’s overwhelming evidence that Hitler was a staunch Christian

I’m sorry, but this reads as the many, many coping ‘readings’ that try to downplay his overt Christianity.

I get it, and I’m not trying to attack you, but this is just wrong.

He did not convert in the years after this quote, as can be evidenced by his favouring of the church up to the end days, the Catholic Church supporting his efforts due to mutual reciprocity, his integration of christian teachings and outright requirements into the Nazi requirements (including requirements for medals), continued iconography, etc.

I’m sorry if it hurts, but Hitler was a Christian, and you can’t say his own words don’t matter because a quote is from a few years before he took power.
