The Deutsche Christen or the "German Christians" were pro-NSDAP pastors, theologians, or simply lay people. They were mostly Protestant because Catholics had their own group called "Kreuz und Adler" or "Cross and Eagle". They published newspapers during the Third Reich era, photos of which can be seen here:

Ah, tell your wife she should not be swayed by such nonsensical lies!β

This is a cutout clip from the movie "SA Mann Brand", it was made by the Third Reich in 1933 and received the qualification of Particularly Valuable by Third Reich authorities, that was the highest qualification for a movie in the first months.
It is the conflict between the SA of the NSDAP against the Communists in the last months of the Weimar Republic.

Richard DarrΓ©βs neo-pagan ideology lost him favor with the NSDAP and eventually led to him being replaced and his representatives being arrested
βLike Rosenberg, however, DarrΓ© quickly fell from grace, and was formally replaced as Reich Agriculture Minister in 1942 by GΓΆring's subordinate Herbert Backe. Even before this date, however, DarrΓ©'s adherence to a neopagan ethos was losing him influence.β
β The Holy Reich, Richard-Steigmann Gall, pg. 124
Itβs also well known that the arrest of Darreβs land representatives was done in part due to his neopagan ideology, even Wikipedia admits this:
βKoch's industrialization plans led him into conflict with DarrΓ©, who held the office of the Reich Peasant Leader and Minister of Agriculture. DarrΓ©, a neopaganist rural romantic, wanted to enforce his vision of an agricultural East Prussia. When his "Land" representatives challenged Koch's plans, Koch had them arrested.β

Hakenkreuz. The hooked cross. Hitler saw the hooked cross in church when he was young, and it was the inspiration for the new German flag. Donβt let the pagans get into your head about it. Adolf Hitler was Christian.

De Benoit, in an interview in the magazine βTYR Myth - Culture - Traditionβ (issue 2, 2003, p. 104) emphasizes: βthe myth that the Nazis were pagans is kept alive by certain circles, for very obvious reasons of propaganda... Nazism is a genuine product of modernism... while with its slogan βEin Volk, ein Reich, ein FΓΌhrerβ , this obsession with the concept of βoneβ, it is also nothing more than a CLEARLY POLITICAL βMONOTHEISMβ. Born in Bavaria, i.e. in a preeminently Roman Catholic region... the Nazi party secularized within itself the Catholic concepts and came out in the form of a canonical Church, headed by an infallible pope (the FΓΌhrer), followed by an anointed clergy ( the party officials) and an elite of elite Jesuits (the SS), with dogmatic truths, aphorisms and persecutions of heretics(Pagans)β¦β
Persecution of Pagans in Hitler's Germany.
Adolf Hitler expresses, like other Christian dictators in history, his open hostility towards any, "divisive" in his opinion, request to highlight or restore religious elements of the pre-Christian era by the various "pagan" associations that existed in the country from the beginning of the 20th century: "various irresponsible teachers are propagating their "Nordic" Religions, polluting almost everything." Even the right-wing, Teutonic, anti-communist and anti-masonry organization "Tannenbergbund", of General Erich Ludendorff and his wife Mathilde, who left the Nazi Party already in 1928, is outlawed by the Nazi regime after 8 years of action, with the accusation that it has been diverted into... "paganism"! (magazine "TYR Myth - Culture - Tradition", issue 2, 2003, pp. 105 - 106). In the same year (1933), Kurt "Weishaar" Paehlke (Kurt "Weishaar" Paehlke, 1875 - 1945), founder 7 years ago (in 1926) of the "pagan" organization "Union of the Goths" ("Bund der Guoten"), is arrested for over a year in a concentration camp, the organization is outlawed and its property confiscated.
