And ScubaSteve, I do agree with you. We should learn to understand Hitler as an individual. But you must be very careful when you read it. I think if you read it, you shoud very prepared for the content taht lies within.
Spence, I can understand you. But that can't be continually applied to everything. You have to get your hands dirty sometimes, and I think ScubaSteve has a good cause here.
Now if I were in a vulnerable state of deep confusion and emotional wreckage, it would be dangerous to read Mein Kamph, as it could quite potentially lead to me becoming like him. But instead, before deciding to read Mein Kamph, you shoud make sure that you are only after learning about Hitler's psyce, so that we may prevent another Hitler from rising. You should be opposed to his ideas before you ever read it. If you are seeking philosophical truth, then Mein Kamph may very well make you the next Hitler.
Nice thinking Scuba...
