::And secondly, Hitler may not hace beleived in the Judeo-Christian God (Jahovah), if that's how atheism is defined; but I think there is evidence Hitler's did beleive in some supernatural higher power. After the July 20, 1944 assassination attempt, for instance, in a state of confusion Hitler, Goebbels, and few others were discussing what to do next. Goebbels convinced Hitler his surviving the attempt was the intervention Providence, and he had a mission to fulfil. And I don't think Goebbels was just brainstorming propaganda spin, but I may be wrong. Most of the narratives concluded Hitler felt endowed with a mission fom Providence.  [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 15:37, 3 August 2011 (EDT)

:Yes, read Hitler's Private Library: The Books that Shaped His Life. He himself admitted Schopenhauer to be his largest influence. Most historians tend to overestimate the influence of Nietzsche on Hitler, but underplay Schopenhauer. To be perfectly fair, Nietzsche was no Anti-Semite and would have despised National Socialism. And while Hitler was no intellectual in the normal sense of the word, he was brilliant. Uncurably evil and insane, but absolutely brilliant. He admitted to reading The World as Will and Representation again and again as a soldier in World War I. He also used direct quotes from Schopenhauer on multiple occasions, like the Jew is the "great master of lying." Christianity and Schopenhauer's ideas pessimism and will are direct contradictions to everything about a Christian worldview. --[[User:Speaketh|Speaketh]] 13:10, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

::Look at that source: it says, "[http://books.google.com/books?id=VZY6CB_9IGAC&pg=PA104&lpg=PA104&dq=hitler%2Bschopenhauer&source=bl&ots=qURoWO_7J7&sig=MfTsTr1DEUL_2T-9bsVaumVZbSc&hl=en&ei=zI1BTvf5F8qmsQKyzoCzCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CD0Q6AEwBTgK#v=onepage&q=hitler%2Bschopenhauer&f=false the claim becomes even less credible when Hilter could not spell the philosopher's name]."  [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 15:46, 9 August 2011 (EDT)
