Hitler’s attitude Hitler was in two minds about what his policy towards the Christian churches should be. On the one hand, the churches could be a powerful ally. The Catholic Church had supported the Nazis because it saw them as a bastion against Communism. On the other hand, the Church represented a rival authority to the Führer. Catholics were required to give their allegiance to the Pope, and the Protestant churchman Martin Niemoller, had openly spoken out against the Nazis.

LO: To understand and explain Nazi attitudes about religion The Protestant Church Hitler united the Protestant churches into one organization led by the pro-Nazi Bishop Muller. Its members were called 'German Christians' and their slogan was “The swastika on our breasts and the cross in our hearts”. Over the course of the next few years the churches came increasingly under attack. By 1939, RE lessons had been abolished and all church schools closed. What do you think the slogan of the German Christian Movement was getting at? LO: To understand and explain Nazi attitudes about religion

The German Faith Movement In 1934 the German Faith Movement was set up. This became the state religion and was based around the Hitler Myth. It aimed to promote the Aryan people and Nazi ideology. "The National Reich Church demands an immediate stop to the printing and sale of the Bible in Germany ... On the altars must be nothing but Mein Kampf, and to the left of this a sword." From the rules of the National Reich Church. LO: To understand and explain Nazi attitudes about religion
