No that's the guy who invented butt-chugging you're fond of, pretty sure he's a baptist.I'm actually quite fond of himAnton Gaissmayer, the inventor of the anal thermometer.

I believe in J.J. Watt.God.. I can't trust anyone who doesn't believe in a power greater than themselves.
"Jerry, you know there's nothing after this life - blow your leaves into my yard one more ####ing time and I'll make sure to end yours forever."Hitler, Stalin, and Jerry Stanfield, neighbor and blower of leaves into everyone else's yard. Hey Jerry I'll buy you the trash bags just pick up your own leaves once in awhile.
As for Stalin, I don't think it matters that he trained as a priest, it does not matter at all. Same goes for Castro.For the record:
Hitler - Christian
Stalin - atheist who trained to be a priest
Pol Pot - a Buddhist (albeit with a twisted view of the religion)
The one thing all of these people had in common wasn't religion, or lack thereof, but the belief you could make the world a better place by killing a lot of people.

Hitler was not religious in his later years either, I don't think he referenced any god in terms of worship after he lived in Munich in his early 20s.
And Pol Pot was ruthless in eliminating and executing Buddhist monks. He wiped out all signs of religion in Cambodia, even the memory of it.
Describing these people as in any way religious when they were doing what they are infamous for doing doesn't comport with the facts. However just because they were - in reality and as how they lived - atheists is not some smear or bad mark on atheism,
I think we all know fundamentalism, extremist, dogmatic orthodoxy in ideology and religion is the problem. Humanism is the answer, which allows for both religion and atheism in a normal framework.

Pol Pot was raised a Buddhist and Catholic. He also was quoted as saying his regime would be democratic like the Buddha had taught. So not withstanding a frogs ### the athiest thing is questionable.is a frog's ### water tight?Are we sure he's an atheist?Pol Pot

Hitler constantly referenced God in his writings and speeches. Stalin spent 5 years in seminary and went back to his childhood religion after the war during a retreat. So again maybe not as athiest as all that.Hot Diggity Dog said:Hitler, Stalin, and Jerry Stanfield, neighbor and blower of leaves into everyone else's yard.

There is a lot conflicting opinion from historians on Hitlers religious beliefs.For the record:Hitler - ChristianStalin - atheist who trained to be a priestPol Pot - a Buddhist (albeit with a twisted view of the religion)The one thing all of these people had in common wasn't religion, or lack thereof, but the belief you could make the world a better place by killing a lot of people.
As fun as it would be to discuss the religious beliefs of Stalin and Hitler with you, I'll pass thanks. But I know that SOB Jerry is an atheist, ******* wont even put up a Christmas tree.Hitler constantly referenced God in his writings and speeches.
