Default Catholics vs. Hitler

The catoholic church would not exist today if it werent for its violent past. The crusades and witch hunts. In medival times the catholic church basically killed everyone who would not convert. So why is the catholic church so highly regarded now. why dont they have the same evil reputation that hitler does. basically hitler was trying to do the same thing. if he was sucessful maybe he would have created a religon that is as highly regarded as the catholic church. I do not condone in any way what hitler did.

Is the catholic church highly regarded? I always thought the general consesus was that the catholic church is kind of scary.

Indulgences, child molestating clergy, etc.

Come on, you have stretched this thing enough. The Inquisition was quite unlike Auschwitz, and Hitler's regime was far more monstrous than Savonarola's. It's not even close.

I hate this forum, the reason of why catholics arent at the same level as Hitler its obvisouly because catholics have also done good stuff, and somehow someway we have a debate about who was worse hitler or the church during the inquisition.

Ok I grant you the catholic church has done both good things and bad things.

Now what exactly was the catholic church's excuse for all the bad things?

P.S. Hitler was a catholic his whole life and his anti-semitism came from the church.
