    Atheist Nazis slaughtered the Jews as atheist leaders historical are genocidal sociopaths who take great pleasure in murder, rape and torture. Nazis murdered thousands of priests and so terrified Christians they were afraid to fight the atheist Nazis. Atheists, of course, did not nothing to oppose the genocide as is typical. Your fury is that the Nazis didn't kill all Christians for their perfect atheist society goals.

    Many atheists essentially claim they are god, for which then morality is only relative to what they want for themselves. That is why atheist leaders tend to be mass murderers, torturers, control freaks and demand the population worship them. The #1 atheist leader in the world today is Kim Jung Un - and you will see many Democrat atheists on the forum always rushing to his defense.

    If they believe they are god, they aren't atheists. And where are the people on this forum rushing to Kim Mung Un's defense?

    Oh dear, the poor Christians we’re afraid to fight the Nazis. But yet you attack the atheists for doing nothing. Do you have any idea how silly you sound? And to say I am angry at the nazis for not killing Christians puts your thinking in the same place as the nazis. Stop projecting these evil thoughts onto me, No one wants any kind of religious or areligious society. You sound paranoid

    Why didn't German atheists join together and fight the Nazis?

    I’m s sure many did...interesting that your attacking. The very small minority of oaatheists and giving a pass to the millions of Christians
    Atheists don’t all know each other to organize. They don’t have churches to go to where they can organize. I am an atheist and I hardly know enough atheists to start a movement

    A veteran anthropologist, after discovering a city where humans had evolved past hunter-gathers to form complex cities of permanent and elaborate stone structures said it has become clear to him what made it possible for humans to organize and so unify. He concluded it was religion as every ancient city has religion at the center as with the most elaborate structures and symbols.

    How can atheists be superior if so many are incapable of or not inclined to organizing into large cohesive social structures?

    Those in the KKK use His name to justify their acts and that is all. You don't care about Christ but you use the acts of the KKK to demean him. What a twisted world!

    When you are a self-worshipper it is hard to get others to join you.

    Yes you are correct and they will band together for awhile until it is time to decide whose morals are the most "relative".

    Complete and utter fundamentalist Christian revisionist twaddle!

    The holocaust slaughter of the Jews was carried out based upon the modern antisemitc writings of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and Henry Ford. Atheists are not antisemitic but many Christian sects are and it is they who are responsible for the holocaust.

    Obviously you have never heard of the Library of Alexandria or the Royal Library of Antioch. The Chinese had libraries more than a thousand years earlier than those.

    Knowledge is the legacy of atheists but I would not expect a fundamendalist theist to understand that concept.

    And it is well established that it was the Christian professing Republican party that financed and enabled Hitler.

    Hitler and Stalin were Christians. Hitler said he committed his atrocities against Jews in the name of Christianity. That is an established fact.

    Christian professing Bush said he was inspired by the Christian god to invade Iraq to get those WMD which he never found. Tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis died. But you never hear even the slightest criticism from the Christian professing far right.

    This nation was founded by Christians killing off the native Americans and the slaughter has never really stopped, unfortunately.

    Now we have lethal weapons in the hands of the mentally unstable who consider churches to be shooting galleries.

    When does the madness end and who will be left standing?

    Dear @JakeJ

    I find the key factor is FORGIVENESS and positive attitude towards others,
    Regardless of one's affiliation, denomination, or identity of faith.

    Both Atheists and Christians who "cannot forgive each other"
    pose harm to themselves. Negative energy and thought patterns,
    especially blame, anger, hatred not only impose on one's mind and health,
    but affect one's judgment and relations with others.

    If you look at the people involved in crimes and violence (and many accidents as well),
    how many of these cases involved emotional problems, fights, abuse or addiction affecting relationships, etc.

    People who are angry or hateful all the time are going to experience
    more stress on their minds and bodies, and more strain in their relations with others.
    By attracting more people like that around them,
    this increases the chances of negative events happening in environment of hostility.

    On the other hand, people who understand forgiveness and faith in humanity
    (again, regardless of their identity as secular/nontheist or religious/theist)
    and especially those who understand and apply the principles of spiritual healing
    to improve their minds, health and relationships, increase their chances of
    better health and reduce their risk of falling victims to abuse or addiction.

    I find that people who REJECT spiritual healing tend to do so
    out of unforgiveness of past issues, whether they are Atheist or Christian
    rejecting this.

    People with KNOWLEDGE of the healing power of forgiveness tend to share this with
    others around them, so they would be more likely to recognize and address
    problems in advance related to anger, abuse, addiction or crime/violence resulting
    from these if they are allowed to escalate further (whereas spiritual healing therapy
    and counseling is used to cure the cause of various forms of ills,
    whether in the mind or body or in relationships and general society.)

    If a person REJECTS spiritual healing, either having no knowledge
    or REFUSING to consider this as a solution to help correct or prevent
    problems, then not only that person but people AROUND that person
    are less likely to have knowledge and access to spiritual healing.

    So either way, we can either attract and circulate "negative energy"
    that creates an environment more prone to conflict, crime, abuse and violence,
    or circulate "positive healing energy" based on faith in forgiveness to
    heal people in mind, body and spirit that makes for healthier relations
    and a safer more stable social environment collectively.
