What if during the rise of Hitler, part of the message was "The Party and The Church". You have Hitler seeing himself as new Holy Roman Emperor.
When the war comes you have the Nazis fighting "In the name of God" They have that as a central theme of their propaganda. They make the Jews out to be the ones that have been forsaken by God.
How would that change the way people would see the Nazis during the 30s and the 40s if they went that route?
As well post war, POWs would remember, that in the camps, the Nazis would be saying that they were the ones chosen by God and the Allies were the ones trying to over throw God's choice. As well they could use in their propaganda, after they attacked the USSR that they were trying to restore the church to the Soviet people that were being denied that.
Would there be a larger separation between the church and state? How would this been seen in other parts of the world?
