Synopsis

Adolf Hitler's religious beliefs have long been a subject of debate, with theories ranging from devout Christian to atheist or occultist. Historian Richard Weikart uncovers the surprising truth: Hitler was a pantheist who saw nature as God. This book explains how Hitler's twisted interpretation of natural laws, combined with racist Darwinism, led him to believe in the annihilation of 'inferior' humans and the promotion of the Aryan race.
