"This man is completely carried away; everything he says and writes has the mark of his egocentrism; this man is capable of trampling on corpses and eliminating anything that is an obstacle. I cannot understand how there are so many people in Germany who do not understand him, and cannot draw conclusions from what he says or writes. Has any of them even read his horrifying ‘Mein Kampf’?"
The above quotation is from Pope Pius XII who seemed to be the only man in Europe to understand Adolf Hitler's intentions from the beginning! This begs the question how was a whole nation deceived?
They were deceived because in the end people will believe what they want to believe and truth has very little to do with it. Adolf Hitler was not born with the title 'Der Fuhrer' neither was he born a monster, he became both of these in his short life. He was able to convince a Nation that genocide was the answer to all their perceived 'problems', how could he do this? Because the nation was ready to be seduced and they were.
As we know six million Jewish people, men, women and children lost their lives in the Holocaust. Alongside that we have the Polish resistance fighters, Catholic Priests and Religious, Russian prisoners of war, Gypsies and tragically the list goes on. This does not explain how a people who had embraced a cultural ethos for hundreds of years had now become a nation of murderers. This is a country that produced Ludwig van Beethoven, the philosopher and Nobel Prize Winner Hermann Hesse, the artist Hans Holbein and many more acclaimed artists and philosophers.
In order for Adolf Hitler to fulfill his dream of a Jewish free Germany he had to program the German people to see the Jewish people as he did, a people who he saw as rodents to be exterminated. What Hitler did not do was to attempt this from the outset, he knew that the German peoples had to be de-sensitized towards murder, that it would become acceptable, but this had to be done little by little and drip by poison drip. Using stealth and seduction Hitler did precisely that, he convinced the German peoples that murder was the answer to all their problems.
To succeed in this mission he also had to convince the German peoples that they were superior to any other race and all other nations. In other words he elevated the German people and isolated those who were not German by setting them apart as 'different' the 'not one of us' which made every German feel proud of his heritage at the cost of another's dignity. In order to maintain the fallacy of the perfect human specimen Hitler began a programe of forced sterilization of those who were deemed 'mentally deficient' after this success, he began the move towards forced euthanasia of those deemed by the Nazi's as unfit to live, approximately 60,000 Germans died using this legal method of murder. These orders were made law and carried out from 1935 to 1939 before Hitler began the Mass extermination of the Jews.
Another ground breaking move made by Hitler was to legalize abortion as he stated with these 'enlightening' words, "In view of the large families of the native population, it could only suit us if girls and women there had as many abortions as possible. Active trade in contraceptives ought to be actually encouraged in the Eastern territories, as we could not possibly have the slightest interest in increasing the non-Germanic population." Should we be too surprised that almost 70 years later most Western countries also embrace that 'theory' and have put it into affect? Also that 'catholics' are also embracing this 'enlightened' way of thinking and like the Nazi's genocide has also been sanitized into more acceptable terms as Pro-Choice, and the baby is called a 'cell'. We are in this day and age living the Nazi ideal, some simply don't know it yet, they are too busy supporting this genocide of the innocents.
In order to further de-sensitize people Hitler came out in favour of 'religion' by promoting a 'positive Christianity' with words that were deliberately ambiguous so as to seduce the faithful away from Christ and to focus on the Fatherland and the Germanic race. Unfortunately there were many who bought this cheap talk for cheap grace at the cost of many lives. Once again Adolf Hitler would show his 'true colours' once the war had begun and his rabid hatred of Christianity came forth, as Joseph Goebbels said, "The Führer is deeply religious, though completely anti-Christian...He views Christianity as a symptom of decay. Rightly so. It is a branch of the Jewish race." Hitler himself also added his own words when confronting the Christian 'threat' to his power, "Christianity is the prototype of Bolshevism: the mobilisation by the Jew of the masses of slaves with the object of undermining society." As the Germans threw out the Crucifix and embraced the Swastika should we not feel alarmed when within our own countries there are organizations which are attempting to ban the Crucifix from all Government buildings and institutions? Some have also taken the step to have the Ten Commandments removed from Government buildings, who is frightened by the Commandments of God? Only those who are breaking them!
The rise to power of Adolf Hitler happened because people wanted an excuse for their own failures, they wanted to feel proud again of their own origins and to feel superior to those deemed unworthy. They grew immune and apathetic towards outright savagery as one inhumane law after another was put into affect. Not all Germans accepted this dictatorial lifestyle and there were pockets of German resistance who paid with their lives in order to try and defeat this maniac, but they were in the minority. Just as there are many good strong and faithfilled Catholics who peacefully picket abortion killing rooms and protest this murder of unborn babies who have no voice.
Adolf Hitler used all the mediums possible to him so he could project his own madness to the German people thereby completely disabling any conscience they may have had about mass murder. His program of de-sensitization was complete through the notorious paper 'Der Sturmer' run by that rabid Jewish hater, Julius Streicher, this paper alone sold over 25,000 copies a week with headlines such as this 'The Jews are our misfortune' another headline was this one, "Whoever buys from a Jew is a traitor to his people." Drip by drip brought about the apathy and acceptance that Hitler had orchestrated from the beginning. As in today where many 'catholics' accept a different Doctrine over and above the Commandments of God and the Teachings of the Catholic Church. When many 'catholics' support an avid anti-christian message such as the Da Vinci Code book and movie, and with relish read the forbidden 'gnostic gospels' yet fail to read The Gospels by citing that they do not wish to be 'Sola Scriptura', that is an excuse too far. These 'catholics' do not read the Bible because they fear it, and believe that ignorance will pay off in the end. Deliberate ignorance is a deliberate choice and they fool no-one except themselves.
The final solution to the Jewish problem had begun with the unspoken acceptance of the German Nation, and the silence of many Western countries who also did not want to make their own countries a safe haven for the Jewish people. One of only a few to speak out was Pope Pius XII when he said, "Whoever exalts race, or the people, or the State, a particular form of State, or the repositories of power, or any other fundamental value of the worldly community... whoever raises these notions above their standard value and divinizes them to an idolatrous level, distorts and perverts an order of the world planned and created by God." Just as in Nazi Germany it becomes dangerous when a country accepts evil as a good, and murders it's most vulnerable citizens, rather than live by their Faith which opposes murder.
We may look at this particular time in history as an aberration, something that none of us would ever do, yet can we say this with true conviction? Is abortion now legal in nearly every civilized country? Is euthanasia not being performed in some Western countries? Are there not experiments done on stem cells in the name of research every single day? Are we not creating life in a test tube every single day in nearly every country of the world where 70 year old Grandma's are giving birth to newborns? Have we not become what we say we hate? When we listen to the screams of those who support Pro-Choice, as their faces become twisted and distorted and their screaming rises to an hysteric pitch, it is easy to visualize the comparisons to that man of evil, Adolf Hitler, after all he also supported abortion and euthanasia, what is the difference between then and now?
The most scary aspect is, that Adolf Hitler was not born evil, yet he became it. The entire German people were not born evil, yet they supported it. The worlds population at that time was not born evil yet they ignored it. When evil knocks at your door will you recognise it's dark message? Our Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI warns us with these wise words, "The more one understands the holiness of God, the more one understands the opposite of what is holy, namely, the deceptive masks of the devil"
How did Hitler murder over 6 million people, because he could. The question is did we learn from history or are we repeating it?
Peace of Christ to ALL
