The essay explores the intricate dynamics between the Nazi regime and the Catholic and Protestant Churches during the Third Reich, emphasizing three key areas of conflict: synchronization, anti-church policies, and euthanasia. It argues that both parties adopted a pragmatic approach rooted in mutual self-interest, rather than radical confrontation. The analysis identifies three factors influencing this relationship: shared anti-liberal and anti-Marxist views, a significant misperception of the Nazi regime's nature by the churches, and the enduring Christian influence on the population.
