I prefer atheism to Christianity. No one kills people in the name of atheism, unlike Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, and even some Buddhists in the name of their religion.
(And yes, atheists like Stalin and Pol Pot killed millions... but not in the name of atheism. BTW, the favorite trope of Hitler being atheist is wrong... he was a devout Christian.)
No, Hitler was never a devout Christian at any time during his adult life. His long term plans after winning the war was to liquidate the churches. Like many politicians, he referenced God during many speeches, but that was in no way indicative of his religious beliefs.
Said Flynn: “If we are going to have one nation under God, which we must, we have to have one religion. One nation under God, and one religion under God.”
Wow.
This guy’s a little too close to General Jack D. Ripper to my liking.
Which one religion would we have? The Religion of Trumpism?

Even if that were true, his crimes were not to support atheism, unlike the things religions do. He was a racist, who found a scape goat, one that centuries of Christian propaganda set the stage for acceptance of Jews as bad.
The vast majority of Germans belonged to a Christian church during the Nazi era. In 1933 there were 40 million Protestants, 20 million Catholics, and small numbers of people adhering to other Christian traditions. The German Evangelical Church (the largest Protestant church) and the Roman Catholic church were pillars of German society and played an important role in shaping people’s attitudes and actions vis-à-vis National Socialism, including anti-communism, nationalism, traditional loyalty to governing authorities (particularly among Protestants), and the convergence of Nazi antisemitism with widespread and deep-seated anti-Jewish prejudice.

Love the reminder of Kubrick/Ripper.
Yes - shows us again how un-American Flynn is, and how he either don't understand, or doesn't care about, the Constitution.
