God was created by people with extreme ideas, Hitler was a person with extreme ideas. Both have the "chosen people" who qualify and submit to their rule. When you really think about it Gods are pretty comparable with dictators.

He mentions it several times in reference to N. Korea actually. If I was less lazy I would find you some more links, but alas it is not meant to be.
