National Cultures, Nazism And The Church By Andrew Krzesinski

In National cultures, Nazism and the Church by Andrew J. Krzesinski many valid points and references are made about not only Nazism but also the ways, causes, and methods that Christianity is involved within them. Mr. Krzesinski, the author of this book, served in the 172nd tank battalion during World War Two and would write many other pieces, some of which include Nazi Germany’s Foreign Policy and Religion of Nazi Germany. These works paired with the fact that he directly was involved in the allied forces during the war make this piece credible. This book mentions the origins of the Christian Church, how and why they affected Germany the way they did, and how these implications would eventually lead to the downfall of the Nazi force. He dives further into the explanation when he describes Germany’s struggles to eliminate the Christian faith, the way that the Nazis employed extreme racism to their foreign policies, and the relationships between Satanism and Nazism. Through the reasoning and explanation of the Christian Church Mr. Krzesinski is able to explain the rise, life-span, and eventual end to the Nazi regime. The question is how exactly was this done?

Through his many examples and direct quotes Krzesinski is able to paint the picture of how and why the Nazi force came to be the way it was. That through the denying of the Church they doomed themselves from the beginning. That the eradication of all freedom within a society creates unjust and often times failure. That because Christianity was introduced to Germany too quickly, that the ideas were taken and then misinterpreted. National cultures, Nazism and The Church by Andrew J Kzresinski is a great read and is able to effectively relate the ideas and concepts behind Germany’s Nazi power in World War
