167. No - I could not find it in google either. I read it in a history
of the third reich and I believe it may have been a biography of Goebbels. Something like that wouild not easily appear on a web search unless the text was cited somewhere.

As for pulling it from their ass - I was really dumbstruck as a researcher when I read it. It was in a book on a friend's bookshelf (a US Attorney) in Washington DC who is Jewish. We discussed the quote and I found it a pretty stunning event because I too had always heard that Hitler "used" Christianity or was a Christian.

But I do not get anything from Mein Kampf to support the notion that Hitler thought anything more of Christianity or religion in general as a means to promote fascism - and that it was a very useful tool for that purpose in the same way that Stalin felt religion was an "opiate" for the masses , Hitler used it as a propaganda tool solely for the "religion" of Aryan supremacy (which is the absolute antithesis of the teachings of Jesus IMHO)


Abyway - If I ewver track the 4exact source down I will let you know. It was a reputable source as I TRY to be (altho like anyone occasionally screw things up).
