While Hitler supported and approved of Rosenberg's ideas, he distanced himself to some extent in order to maintain the support of conservative Christians. Rosenberg wanted to use the idea of positive Christianity as a transition to easily move towards a more fully racialist faith. He believed that Protestant and Catholic churches had distorted Christianity, moving the perception of Jesus away from the Aryan view.
The concept of 'Positive Christianity' was strongly supported by the Nazi movement, particularly by Alfred Rosenberg, a German philosopher who strongly supported the Nazi ideology.Īdvocating 'Positive Christianity', he planned the "extermination of the foreign Christian faiths imported into Germany", and for the Bible and Christian cross to be replaced with Mein Kampf and the swastika. Martin Bormann, Hitler's 'deputy' from 1941, saw Nazism and Christianity as incompatible and had a particular loathing for the Semitic origins of Christianity.
