"I begin to lose all respect for humanity when I think that some people on our side,
Ministers or generals, are capable of believing that we cannot triumph without the
blessing of the Church. Such a notion is excusable in little children who have learnt
nothing
else."

"I condemn Christianity; It is to me the greatest of all imaginable corruptions; it seeks
to work the ultimate corruption, the worst possible corruption. The Christian Church has
left nothing untouched by its depravity; it has turned every value into worthlessness,
and every truth into a lie, and every integrity into baseness of soul... it lives by distress;
it
creates
distress
to
make
itself
immortal...
I call Christianity the one great curse, the one great intrinsic depravity, the one great
instinct for revenge.....I call it the one immortal blemish upon the human race....." - The
great German philosopher, Friedrick Nietzsche (1844-1900)

able Talk is genuine so-far as that a set of notes were indeed written down by Heinrich
Heim and Henry Picker, under the direction of Martin Bormann, purporting to be the
private opinions of Adolf Hitler. Nobody doubts that. The problem is that it was
translated into French by Franois Genoud (a man who openly admitted to David Irving
that he forged a document claiming to be Hitler's Last Testament) and then Genoud's
French translation was rendered into English by Cameron and Stevens. Genoud seems
to be the one who have made the big changes...
David Irving and Albert Speer are both on record as being convinced that Table Talk is
authentic Hitler.
The problem with denouncing everything Hitler may have written except for Mein
Kampf is that it allows unworthy people to create their own Hitler as there is not
enough information, especially in later years, to give us a picture of a developing Hitler.
I dont think Hitler changed his basic message, but in the early years he was trying to
get the German people to follow him, to join his party, so he was more prone to use
Christian speech and imagery. Once he was Chancellor not so much. During the war,
his speeches were more rare and more about encouraging the German people to be
strong and keep the faith not the Church faiith, but faith in their soldiers, in
themselves, in their sacrifices as necessary and bearing fruit. Also to keep having
children and not allowing themselves to get soft on Jews.
If you study enough about Hitler, you can easily tell that HTT is as genuine as it gets.
