It is a fact that the Church tried to protect many individuals from the evils of Nazism and its death camps, despite whatever else certain of its members may have done.

Sadly, most of the analyses of Nazism leave all of its various occult roots at the doorstep of one poor old Russian woman, Helena Blavatsky.

 Nazism and the New Age, Hitler and the Occult
The strength of their work is ironically due to their positive attitude toward the occult: it appears they rather admire the "Ancient Wisdom" as expressed in Gnosticism, Catharism and other esoteric movements, and they trace its threads through history with nostalgia as well as academic interest.
Pius XI flatly equated Nazism with "aggressive paganism", condemned the removal of the Old Testament from churches and schools as an act of someone who "blasphemes the name of God", and reaffirmed the Jewish Bible as "sacred books" which "record the story of the chosen people, bearers of the Revelation and the Promise".
Hitler seemed determined to keep his occult roots hidden from the general public; the groups and individuals he targeted for early elimination were those who knew of those roots and who might expose him (thereby challenging his control of the "Plan").

Here he was tapping into the ideas on root races that had been propounded by H P Blavatsky, founder of the Theosophical Society, but he was in fact specifying and identifying very much with the German Aryan race.
If we think about the lessons of Nazism and the shadow within certain kinds of new age belief, it really comes down to the fact that there is a terrible risk in such projections.

By occult, we mean the formalized religious expression of pagan culture as opposed, for example, to the philosophical ideas of Hellenic paganism.
As we seek to understand Nazism, it is important to remember that Judaism and its Christian and Islamic offshoots are fundamentally opposed to homosexuality.
But at its very root there is a spiritual element to the Holocaust that suggests that it was, in some respects, vengeance against the people whose moral laws had relegated pagan sex-religions to obscurity and ignominy.

In recalling the movements which contributed to the birth of Nazism, it is necessary to observe that not all those involved in these movements were sympathetic to Nazism itself.
It is clear that Nazism was not a natural growth from Christian soil, its origins being neither Protestant nor Catholic.

 The Occult Roots of Nazism (review)
Although the gas chamber mythos has been the center-piece of ongoing Establishment efforts to diabolize the Third Reich, there has been a parallel attempt to remove that epoch from objective consideration by casting it in a less homicidal but more bizarrely demoniacal light.
Such books as The Morning of the Magicians or The Occult and the Third Reich first broached the notion that the National Socialist era, in addition to its multifarious other evils, had actually been conjured up by wicked wirepullers behind the visible leaders.
We were introduced to the enigmatic figures of Rudolf von Sebottendorf and other supposed adepts of the fabled Thule Society, which now have become household words among even casual students of the period; and behind them an earlier strain of philosophers who, shockingly enough, had erected a religious worldview upon "Aryan" racialism.

Although there has always been a theocratic strain in fascist movements, several factors are contributing to a latter-day, "folkish" (or tribal) revival among white youth who are beset by an acute sense of disenfranchisement in Western societies.
His first book, The Occult Roots of Nazism, is a masterful study of a much sensationalized subject — racist groups in early 20th century Austria that embraced forms of mystical nationalism and helped incubate Aryan racial ideas.
Although he never attracted many followers, Madole became known as "the father of postwar occult fascism" by saturating his ideology with a mish-mash of science-fiction and other notions drawn from eastern traditions and theosophy, a mystical religious movement originating in late 19th century America.

 Homosexuality and the Nazi Party
For it was the CS which created and shaped what would become the Nazi persona, and it was the loathing which these "Butches" held for effeminate homosexuals ("Femmes") which led to the internment of some of the latter in slave labor camps in the Third Reich.
Betraying his roots in the "Butch" faction of the German "gay rights" movement, Roehm viewed homosexuality as the basis for a new society.
As Grunberger asserts, Nazism itself was a "pseudo-religion" (ibid.:79) that competed, in a sense, with Christianity and Judaism.

Read the "Occult Roots of Nazism", although it may be a bit intellectual for you.
Someone in an earlier post mentioned Hitler's use of the imagery of the Teutonic Knights: their was a lot of occult mystery surrounding all of the military orders during the middle ages.
Again, there was a lot of occult type imagery associated with the Teutonic Knights, which Hitler (or at least many of his top advisers) was intrigued by and wanted to be associated with because of its spiritual implications for the strength of the German people.

In The Occult Roots of Nazism Goodrick-Clarke convincingly argued that the most powerful appeal of National Socialism lay in its essentially religious millenarian and occultist elements, especially as derived from the turn-of-the-century German Ariosophists, in particular von List (1848 - 1919) and von Liebenfels (1874 - 1954).
The Ariosophists' doctrines advocated rule by gnostic elites and orders, a hierarchical society based upon racial purity and occult initiation, and the founding of a pan-German world empire involving the ruthless conquest and eventual extermination of non-German inferior races.
Nazi anti-Semitism was rooted in this apocalyptic demonology, which blamed the Jews for all ills, including liberalism, communism, the corruption of morals, and the downfall of a traditional world.

This book is essential to the understanding of the occult history which lies at the roots of Nazi racial theory.
We have a book titled "The Occult Roots of Nazism." The author describes the modern German occult revival and states that "mention must be made of another theosophical tendency," namely Steiner, and describes his role in these groups.
I would think it is that Steiner is part of the modern German occult revival, which is part of the occult roots of Nazism, per the author's thesis.

Levenda's history of occult Nazism begins describing the histories of Madame Blavatsky's Theosophy and Alestier Crowley: the British occultist who founded the OTO (Order of the Eastern Temple) known for his practice of sex-magic.
Nazism gets credit for being a religiously anti-modern philosophy, but remaining anti-Christian, millenarian, utopian, and romantic in character.
This is probably the most thorough treatment of Nazi occult ideology in English, and where it surpasses similar works is that it continues documenting neo-Nazi survivals right up to the present.

A scholarly case study of a strand of this phenomena is Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke's "The Occult Roots of Nazism," available since 1994.
This is one (not uncontroversial) example documenting the strange and diffuse links between Nazi ideology and the occult.
What is more difficult to pin down is the link between the Nazis' rejection of modernity and their embrace of a pagan, mystical ethos, with the belief in the occult that this implies.

 Bloody Utopian Dreams, Part 2: The Enigma of the Third Reich   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Germany’s theological roots run deep; Martin Luther’s strike against entrenched Roman Catholicism, and much of the ensuing Reformation and Anabaptist movement, are historically significant to Germany.
It could be said that German-central Europe was experiencing an occult renaissance of sorts, and each of these movements (and others not listed) played a part in creating an undercurrent of Germanic spiritual adventurism.
First, the simple fact is that as a movement Nazism re-forged the entire structure of Europe, and continues to have lasting social repercussions (politically and culturally, today's European Union was birthed from the ashes of World War II and the Nazi's impact on European life).
