Description
States that the puzzle of German behaviour under Hitler lies in an assessment of religious beliefs. Talks about three theologians- Paul Althaus, Emanuel Hirsch and Gerhard Kittel and maintains that the Protestant theology they inherited and shaped allowed them to endorse enthusiatically the rise of Hitler and to accept without complaint the removal of Jews from German life
