A wackjob with a set of insane beliefs, a blend of ideology and religion, which he packaged and sold to a nation, causing untold suffering.
He sold it to a Christian nation (62.7% Protestant, 32.5% Catholics, 4.8% other, 0.8% Jewish in 1933) of willing buyers.
Some describe Jesus as a wackjob rabbi who saw the world ending very soon...so there's nothing odd about such believers getting taken in by another wackjob...and what better way to get the gullible in than by utilizing their existing fear, paranoia and superstition based beliefs.
Some here should read about how the German 6th celebrated Christmas when they were encircled at Stalingrad at the same time they were conducting an all out ideological war of death and destruction and indifference to the immense human suffering they caused.
The Waffen SS identified as Christian in over 50% of its members..Himmler relaxing/adjusting his policy to accommodate them when they protested his original demands.

Yep. There are many different christianities, and they are not all equal.
IIRC ,. wabi denigrates other people's gods by calling them false..which is a really cheap shot. (but commensurable for such a simpleton.)
He can no more prove such gods as false than he can prove his god to be real.

Norse settled Greenland as pagans where a Frost Giant would certainly be fitting....then they converted to Christianity and their settlements failed, so Jesus and faith wasn't able to help them. One can still see the crumbled remains of a church.
