If you want to use historical instances, you would have been better off with the Spanish Inquisition (Here, I'll say it for you smart alecks, "No one escapes the Spanish Inquisition!!") than with WW2 Germany.

Hitler's Germany was not Christologically driven, it was driven on a cult worship of Hitler. At worst, some denominations/clerics kept silent about Nazi horrors, while others, like Dietrich Bonhoeffer were shot for their unflinching opposition.
