Hitler made choices, God did not make those choices for him.
Originally posted by @chaney3Excuse me chaney, but when I read the creation account in genesis, after God was done creating, God said that everything was very good.
Where did evil come from?
Did God create everything?
Yes.
God created evil.
Evil came after God was done creating. So you're dead wrong due to a lack of correct information and faulty reasoning. Like most around here.
Besides, evil isn't a thing, it's an act of rebellion and defiance committed by a created being.

Christians are under no such commandment to obey a government that operates in defiance of God's law. You ask the most foolish questions.
You should know that since you claim to have been a Bible believing Christian once upon a time.

Is that what Romans 13:1 means?
But Peter and the other apostles replied, “We must obey God rather than men."
So if men expect you to break God's law, obey God's law. I'm surprised you missed this bit over the decades of your Christianity.
