Was Hitler an Atheist?

How Hitler Exploited Religion to Seize Power

By: Owen Morgan

Narrated by: Owen Morgan

Was Hitler an atheist? The answer is sometimes ambiguous. Some political pundits claim Hitler was an atheist, and others claim he was Christian. In the turbulent years of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler cynically used both the Protestant and Catholic churches to strengthen his grip on power.

Although some religious leaders opposed him, many either accepted or actively supported his ascent. How and why did these powerful institutions allow themselves to become tools of a brutal dictatorship? This book explores the complex relationship between the churches and Hitler's regime.

Owens commitment to accuracy

Owen has a soothing reading voice so I appreciated that with such a heavy topic. I appreciate the level of commitment to finding answers

Well-written and researched

This was a balanced and fair examination of Hitler’s religious beliefs, but more importantly, it’s an examination of the beliefs that drove those who supported him. Also, Owen did a good job reading his own work. Worth the read!

how easily people fall for hate

I really enjoyed learning about the church and the history of how the facicist could take over.

Very Well researched

Loved it. Well researched, detailed, interesting. Lots of esoteric information on little-known subjects. Will read more from the author

He weaponized religion

However his personal beliefs tended, he weaponized the church in his conquest and the church let it happen. Owen highlights how differently events might have unfolded, had church leaders not served their own self-interests.

This audiobook book may have a few editing errors. A few sections were repeated, though I realize Owen may have been reading page highlights in line with the text. I don't know, since I haven't seen a physical copy, yet.
