Now imagining some obscure branch of the SS trying to market plush Hitlers midwar.
Though the Blackshirts might've had more success with a plump Musso.

Also it's a popular interpretation of Christian theology that you can't actually go to Hell for 'denying' God if you die innocent having never heard of the guy, so if you find someone in that state maybe shut up and leave them alone, you monster.

They are people who have lived in a complete cocoon of privilege, and I say this as someone who practically got the same treatment for much of my life. They have gotten everything they've ever wanted or needed without strife. I'm not saying that these people should've been beaten by their parents or anything but they just...have no concept of consequence. I think they don't think it can happen to them. They believe they're special, and wonderful, and if they just keep believing hard in themselves they can do anything no matter what!

Right, it's a central tenant of evangelism that you need to, well, evangelize. It's not enough to live according to the moral principles of your faith; you're morally obligated to make sure everybody else does, too. To save them.
