| 总结: | Christopher J. Probst has written a helpful book on an important topic. For far too long, historians have assumed that members of the Protestant Confessing Church were opponents of the Nazi regime, when in fact they were opponents of the “German Christian” movement that developed a synthesis of Christianity and National Socialism within the Protestant Church. The German Christians, who gained control over significant portions of the Protestant Church, were virulently hostile, toward baptized Jews as well as non-baptized; members of the Confessing Church were frequently sympathetic to the plight of baptized Jews, if few cared about the non-converted., The contribution of Probst's book lies in his careful examination of some of the pastors and professors from the two factions. |
