The Romans Would Understand

The article presents information on the fact that why did the Nazis engage in a conflict with German Protestantism, which they could have easily avoided. It is true that they have set up a totalitarian state, but there is no need to be literal about it. Two-thirds of the Germans are Protestants. Many good bourgeois who approve of all else in Hitlerism resent its interference with their faith, it is significant that German Protestant leader Martin Niemoller, leader of the rebellious Confessionals, was no liberal or radical disguising opposition to fascism under the cloak of religious controversy but a reactionary who participated in the brutal attacks on the left after the war and in 1923.
