Believer: "To claim Hitler was a christian has to be a master act of self-deception."
</i>
If everyone is only "human", and prone to sin/evil, etc., then what makes the "christian" different?
I suppose what I am asking... is... what makes a christian different than a non-christian, if everyone is prone to human error?

Believer: "According to your information, Hitler used the incident where Jesus drove out the sellers in the temple because of their dishonest practices. Any reasonable person, whether a believer or not, should be able to recognize that Hitler twisted Jesus's actions to justify the murder of 6 million Jewish men, women and children."

You have "failed" to explain why millions of people were allowed to be deceived, and they by the way were predominately "christian".
If appears all of those german citizens, were just "gullible"? So, you believe you are "smarter" than all of those german christians? What makes you "smarter", or more able to spot a liar? What makes you "less" gullible than all of those german christian citizens?
