This is why I hate the fact that Hitler and Stalin were "atheist" is always this huge "gotcha" that religious folk drop.
First all it's a lie for at least one, maybe both them.
But even if it where true, they were anti-religious because they saw religious, organized religion especially, as a threat to their power. They weren't rational or measured people.
Hitler didn't see religious people as a threat to his power. He counted on them.
Irrespective of his personal beliefs, he completed presented himself as a good Christian, and got the Christians to support him.
Hitler never personally murdered any Jews or threw anyone in the gas chamber. He just had others do it for him. Good, Christian family men. Who sent Jews to the gas chamber.
