Hitler－having been subjected to an abusive relationship with his father, and later on losing both of his parents due to medical-related incidents－suffered greatly as a young man. This appalling past was the road to deicide. This deicide, or killing of God, was an open door for the Holocaust.

In 1933, Hitler was elected Chancellor of Germany after members of other parties who were loyal to the president convinced him that they would be able to control him in that position. Little did they know that this was the worst mistake they could have ever made. When the Reichstag building burned down, Hitler blamed the feared communist party for the incident, and the German press confirmed the accusations. Using his powers as chancellor, Hitler also ordered massive reprisals against the communists. He then continued to dismantle all that remained of Germany’s democratic institutions. On March 23, 1933, Hitler convinced the Parliament to enact the “enabling law.” In essence, this law gave Hitler the ability to do whatever he wanted without the approval of Parliament. Using his new abilities, Hitler abolished and dismantled all other Parties, and by doing so, he became dictator of
