  Out of my own curiosity I have spent about 2 days on and off reading Mein Kampf. Not in its entirety but parts of it. Honesty it is apparent that our Old Buddy Hitler has some serious issues... this whole Aryan race thing and all. However here is the problem as I sat back and thought about it I began to see that his book is really no worse than the Bible, and I find this to be ironic.

  Hitler was into the superior race thing and the killing thing and the chosen people thing, but apparently so were the writers of the bible. We also take a look at the atrocities committed by Hitler and they are no worse than the killing God did and not even a drop in the bucket in comparison to what he apparently plans to do at armageddon. I am not sure if Hitler plans on killing animals as well, I don't really plan on reading any further.

  God tells the Hebrews to go out and exterminate nations in opposition to them. People who lived in lands that they no doubt had been in for years. Just because they wanted it in some promise that GOD apparently made to this one guy Abraham. They were told to kill children with the edge of the sword even in the moms tummy. The OBVIOUS reason is that god used his incredible ability to look into the future and realize that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE LITTLE BOYS in the future would try to kill all the israelites and not a single one worship YHWH. I wish he would have just used some of that ability to tell the future when he was contemplating making adam and eve and this giant clusterfugg we are in now LOL.

  These books are such a freaking joke...

  Well, the genocide of the canaanites never actually happened, the Holocaust did...

  Then again Adam and Eve never did exist either so I guess the whole tower crumbles doesn't it...

  But to those who believe that the bible is the word of God and that those things did happen, no doubt God and his recorded stories of killings and genocides are far worse. So either we accept the fact that the bible is an utter lie and trash (the most probable take on this) or Bible God is worse than Adolf.

  as he should be with that bigger beard vs the chaplin version.

  and then the little dictator carried out some of the terrible things he proposed in MK , which still has to be demonstrated for the bible story, except in self fulfilling passages.

  So prologos, what you are saying is that the killing volume is directly related to the density of ones facial hair... that makes far more sense to me than the talking serpent idea

  CAA, perhaps you were simply joking, but Hitler in his later years was a vegetarian. Although it may have been initially on the advice of his doctor, he at least afterwards gave a moral dimension to this new lifestyle, valuing animals' lives and criticizing Eva for wearing make-up made from animal fat (like lipstick). So in fact Hitler was kinder to animals than God was.

  For my last 2 years I have been tired of the bible. Even in talks I mainly just gave good old advice and illustrations because it became ahrder to justify things from the bible and feel ok about it. Since really deciding this Religion thing was too much for me I cant even look at a biblew without almost laughing and crying at the same time.

  God of the Bible was an evil angery mean-spirited being who seems to favor one group over another and then justify it with the most foolish of reasons. Yet we condemn people for life for the simplest of things...

  I dont know ether it was in "Mein Krampf", but he had a thousand year Reign, a perfected human race, a 144 column temple. disfellowshipping/suicide like Rommel, Pioneers (no, that was stalin) (HJ) A volontary workers Corps (AD), a great army of young woman (BDM),

  I believe "Mein Krampf" was written in prison with the help of a bible "scholar".

  He was another imitation religious messiah of the political kind with divine overtones.

  Naaahhh... Hitler was a criminal. Jehovah never demanded a pure race, nor did he ever commit genocide.
  He doesn't have an organization endoctrinating children to His standards. Naaaahhh... God is nothing like Hitler, and the Bible is nothing like Mein Kampf.
  Silly thought.
