'... religion was discouraged', but they had armu chaplains? That doesn't make sense - or at the very least calls for an explalation.
During the Holocaust, many people were captured, abused, and eventually mudered based on what social group they were in. This includes homosexuals, disabled people, "gypsies", and most of all, Jews. The Jewish people were treated like animals simply because of their religious beliefs.
___
The Holocaust had nothing to do with religion.
Christianity played no direct part in the Holocaust. However, Roman Catholicism in particular had encouraged the demonization of the Jews for centuries.
The motivation was entirely racist, political and ideological, not religious. (Obviously, there was a religious background to antisemitism, but religion was not a motive for the Holocaust). Michael is arguing with me about this, and i am showing him that I am right.---The Holocaust wasn't all about religion. Sure, the Jews were the main targets, but 6 million other people were also killed. Poles, Russians, homosexuals, gypsies, communists, socialists, intellectuals, and anyone who disagreed with Hitler. The Jews were the main target yes, but not the only target and people seem to forget that.---The Nazis did not persecute the Jews for their religion but because of their ethnicity ('race'). The Holocaust had almost nothing to do with religion.
