Hitler used the jewish identity to justify his atrocities.
justification they murder out of hate or greed. The trouble isn't the means
they justify themselves, it is that within the human mindset they want to
kill, so they look for ways and means to justify themselves and sometimes
they just do it out of the honest reason, they just want to.

I agree that the full force of the law and the full attention of security services should be brought down upon such criminals in order to apprehend them, stop them, and punish them. While I would not mourn their deaths on the battlefield, if captured and prosecuted, I would not agree with them being executed and would rather see them incarcerated for life.
Our jails are full already.
In the future we are looking at millions if not tens of millions of combatant Muslims radical nut cases.
Can't you see that it is the teachings of Islam that is responsible for Muslims throwing gay people of 7 story buildings and slaughtering students in their dormitories as they sleep.
Islam must be wiped from this planet.................just like the Hitler's Third Reich was removed from the earth also for its violence against humanity.
There is nothing good about violent and ugly Islam..............exactly zero.
Any person who does not see this is dishonest.

Originally posted by DasaWell I oppose capital punishment, if that's what you mean. Regardless of their crimes, I think we as a civilization have to foot the bill to incarcerate them in a decent and humane fashion.

I think anyone who sets out to do this indiscriminately and by murderous means should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
-Removed-Welllet's have a look at what I said ...
well Hitler was a Christian so religion seems to be doing pretty well on the slaughtering front ... would you now care to tell us how many people have been slaughtered through the centuries for being heretics, heathens, witches, and so on ... ?
Thanks in advance
1) You said I asserted he was a Christian; yep, you got my number there - guilty as charged.
2) You said I concluded that all the Nazi atrocities can be attributed to mainstream Christianity.
Really? From a glib comment about how religion is doing just as well as non-religion in the killing front (because RC just threw a load of stats at us) you concluded (2)?
Originally posted by KellyJayI agree with you KJ. The problem as I see it , is that evil people will use any excuse to justify atrocities both religious and political. Any organisation that divides people will provide such opportunities. This is why I subscribe to a position of Atheistic Humanitarianism,because it seeks bring people together without any contentious preconditions.

-Removed-I didn't deflect the (arguably loaded) question about my views on ISIS, I declined to answer it (and you note it was not relevant).
As I said in my last response, it was a half-hearted comment towards RC (who started the who's the most evil game) that his wall of stats don't leave religion smelling of roses. As for Hitler being a Christian - let's recall he wasn't just *a person*, he wasn't representative of the average person, he was a person in a position of extraordinary power. He had an opportunity to make real his personal ideology by virtue of him being the german chancellor and head of the Nazi regime ... most normal Christians germans committed the atrocities they did, not because of their own convictions, but because of Hitlers'.
Religion (includes Christianity) in of itself is not a cause of death and despair. It is blind adherence to dogma, and charismatic leaders (in this case Hitler) using people as their tools (under the banner of a given religion) which is that cause.

will humans in your umbrella too! Contentions arise when we divide
ourselves and in only one place will the divisions disappear which is with
the One that is above us all in my opinion. Without God we are just a
divided people looking for ways to justify us over them.
Originally posted by KellyJayKJ,even the religious groups using the bible cannot agree , let alone agreement with non biblical religions. To suggest that religion unites us is not the world I see. Our common bond is our Humanity I think we should concentrate on that.

The post that was quoted here has been removedAdolf Hitler may have been a Roman Catholic, but by that time Protestant Christians considered the Roman Catholic Church as having become apostate.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_Reformation
During the Second World War in Yugoslavia, as with the Catholic Church in Croatia, many Muslim clerics in Bosnia and Kosovo were willing accomplices in the genocide of the nations Serbian, Jewish and Roma population. From 1941 until 1945, the Nazi-installed regime of Ante Pavelic in Croatia carried out some of the most horrific crimes of the Holocaust (known as the Porajmos by the Roma), killing over 800,000 Yugoslav citizens - 750,000 Serbs, 60,000 Jews and 26,000 Roma. In these crimes, they were helped by Muslim fundamentalists in Bosnia and Kosovo who were openly supported by the Palestinian Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin al-Husseini. A notorious anti-Semite, he openly encouraged Muslims to join Nazi units that would be later implicated in genocide and crimes against humanity - the infamous Hanjar (or Handschar) 13th Waffen SS division. One of these crimes was the The Massacre at Koritska Jama Gorge, in Bosnia during 1941. The Nazi's also established a puppet state in Serbia under General Milan Nedic, who along with the Cetniks also particapated in the Holocaust in wartime Croatia (which included Bosnia) and Serbia.
What united al-Husseini and the Third Reich was a common hatred of the Jewish people.

A substantial number of Muslims made common cause with the NAZIs during World War II. There was considerable sympathy for the NAZIs in the Middle East and North Africa. The Grand Mufti in Palestine provked anti-Jewish and anti British riots even before the War. There was an anti-British coup in Iraq (1941). Anti-British forces gained considerable strength in Iran where the Soviets and British intervened (1941). There was considerable anti-British sentiment in Egypt which was prepared to welcome Rommel and the Afrika Korps with open arms (1942). The NAZIs never conquered Egypt, but they did occupy areas with Muslim populations, including Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union. Several Muslim SS units were formed to fight with the Wehremacht. All of these units after the War were accussed of commiting honredous attrocities.
