  1. I think the top image is actually American or British WIII propaganda – saying the enemy is the Nazis, who are trampling on biblical morals and beliefs. It’s in English. If it were in German then I’d think it was meant to be a Nazi propaganda image against Christianity/religion). I didn’t think the Nazis were anti-Christian (though Catholics were not considered “as Christian”?) but not sure how they reconciled the fact that the Old Testament is all about Jews… and Jesus was Jewish.

  2. The pro-Nazi church was the German Christians (Nazi ideology + “cleansed” theology); the opponents were the signers of the Barmen Declaration (1934, Lutheran, Reformed, United Church), the so-called Confessing Church. My interpretation of the top image is that Nazi ideology has killed Christian faith and its Biblical basis.
