Hitler Was Religious

Time Magazine, in a letter to Joseph C. Sommer, Vice President of the Humanist Community of Central Ohio, said,

"We appreciate your noting that we were mistaken in characterizing Nazism as an officially atheistic regime. The National Socialists indeed did acknowledge a deity and, however anti-Christian their tenets and methods, aimed to establish the German supremacist faith they called "positive Christianity." And too, as you point out, Hitler claimed life long allegiance to the [Roman] Catholic religion.

We have notified the appropriate staff so that they may correct our files."
