And as an 8-year-old schoolchild, growing up under a Nazi dictatorship as Geiser did, where would you have obtained your moral frame of reference to decide what was "unquestionably" immoral?

How about church? You know, the Ten Commandments thingie?

I suggest you read the Old Testament. That's not so much a morality play against genocide... as a manual for it. The Nazis were well aware of this and played off it when it suited their purposes.

It may come as a surprise to you, but Hitler not only persecuted Jews, his Nazi regime also actively restricted other organized religions. (Hitler and Christianity). Instead, he sought to subvert and eradicate Judeo-Christian beliefs and morality by substituting a fabricated, paganistic cult based on ancient Teutonic myths.
