Richard Dawkins interviewed by Bill O'Reilly

From tonight. (April 23/2007)
Bill O'Reilly was surprisingly pleasant (for Bill O'Reilly).
However, all evidence points to Hitler being a Christian (Not that that has anything to do with him being a monster, just as if he had been an atheist. As well Hitler held strange neo-pagan beliefs [in fashion with many people at that time] yet we don't blame paganism). But let's assume he wasn't a Christan, he certainly believed that Christianity was necessary for the kind of world he wanted to create. If you read Mein Kampf (If you do I recommend having a brick wall handy to bang your head against for relief) and many of Hitler's other writings you will see he talks repeatedly of Christianity and his support for it.

"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter." - Adolf Hitler, in a speech on 12 April 1922

"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord." - Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

Monsters are monsters for many reasons. Most Christians would never support the holocaust, nor would most atheists, nor Pagans, nor Shintoists, nor....... etc, etc.

And when Christians make the "Stalin, and Mao argument" they are pissing on their own shoes. Most Christians will first admit that "Yes, Christianity did some horrible things," (Crusades, Inquisition, The Pope not standing up against Hitler, etc, etc.). "but atheism has been involved in some of the most brutal atrocities in recent history". With the overall suggestion that it will happen again with atheism. Well if that's the argument what's stopping Christianity from doing it again? Or any other religion that has perpetrated atrocities? It's a poor argument against atheism. But it is a very good argument for not trusting people in power, always questioning our leaders and thinking for ourselves.
