Mussolini looked to the church as a huge source of power but also as a source of reliability as most Italians would believe anything they're told by the church.
Mussolini tries to show the church that fasism could benifit them and set up a sort of simbiotic relationship (in 1922)
through the years they supported Mussolini and Mussolini gave present to the church and gave them about 100 acres to make a seperate state (the Vatican).
The church didn't particually like Mussolini however worked together in order to further their own personal gain

How did the alliance between Hitler and Mussolini bring Hitler down during World War 2?
Mussolini started wars - against Greece and Britain - that he was quite unable to fight effectively and called on Germany for help, which Hitler gave. A militarily weak ally is a burden in a war. ____________________________________________________________________ Not exactly. Great Britain had been at war with Germany since Septermber 1, '39. In 1940, Mussolini joined Hitler, and the Brit army in Egypt invaded Italian Libya. Marshal Graziani pushed them back, but Italy was defeated at the Battle of Beda Fomm. In East Africa, Italian Somaliland invaded British Somaliland, but they also lost to the Brits who liberated Ethiopia from Italy in the process. In the Balkans, Italy invaded Greece from its puppet state of Albania, a move which diverted the British from the intended destruction of the surviving units of Marshal Graziani's army in North Africa. At first the invasion of Greece went well, but with British help it was pushed back. Although Hitler was not pleased with Mussolini for these failures, he sent sent General Rommel and the Afrika Korps to North Africa, and he invaded Greece through Yugoslavia. The latter proved to be a grave mistake, as Yugoslavia proved to have the most effective resistance of any Axis-occupied nation. Marshal Tito and his army of Yugoslav communist partisans tied down forty German and Italian divisions which might have otherwise been used in Russia or North Africa. The relationship between Hitler and Mussolini was codependent and complicated. This contributor believes that Mussolini (in power for eleven years before Hitler came to power) became jealous of the huge territorial gains made by Hitler in so short a time, and he threw Italy into a war that it was not prepared for. Yet, Germany was only partially prepared for war. Great Britain in particular had become a tougher enemy than Hitler anticipated, and although Mussolini had botched the invasion of Greece, his forces effectively kept the Brits occupied in North Africa and the Med. In the opinion of this contributor, Mussolini was indeed a drag on Hitler, no doubt about it, but Hitler was an even greater drag on himself.
Was Adolf Hitler an altar boy?
It is commonly accepted that Hitler was baptised and reared a Catholic and served as an altar boy. Some even say that he aspired to the priesthood, just like his rival Josef Stalin. It is not known why Hitler turned away from the Church's teaching and became the vicious man that he did, but some say that it was because he did turn his back on his faith that me became a monster. Others say that he kept his faith to his dying day, but this cannot explain his actions as a dictator.actually his actions can be explained perfectly. christians have hated Jews for centuries because they believe it was Jews who killed Jesus. Hitler never gave up on his christian teachings.Hitler's involvement with the Church:a) Hitler was baptized as Roman Catholic during infancy in Austria.b) As Hitler approached boyhood he attended a monastery school. (On his way to school young Adolf daily observed a stone arch which was carved with the monastery's coat of arms bearing a swastika.)c) Hitler was a communicant and an altar boy in the Catholic Church.d) As a young man he was confirmed as a "soldier of Christ." His most ardent goal at the time was to become a priest. Hitler writes of his love for the church and clergy: "I had excellent opportunity to intoxicate myself with the solemn splendor of the brilliant church festivals. As was only natural, the abbot seemed to me, as the village priest had once seemed to my father, the highest and most desirable ideal." -Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)e) Hitler was NEVER excommunicated nor condemned by his church. Matter of fact the Church felt he was JUST and "avenging for God" in attacking the Jews for they deemed the Semites the killers of Jesus.f) Hitler, Franco and Mussolini were given VETO power over whom the pope could appoint as a bishop in Germany, Spain and Italy. In turn they surtaxed the Catholics and gave the money to the Vatican. Hitler wrote a speech in which he talks about this alliance, this is an excerpt: "The fact that the Vatican is concluding a treaty with the new Germany means the acknowledgement of the National Socialist state by the Catholic Church. This treaty shows the whole world clearly and unequivocally that the assertion that National Socialism [Nazism] is hostile to religion is a lie." Adolf Hitler, 22 July 1933, writing to the Nazi Partyg) Hitler worked CLOSELY with Pope Pius in converting Germanic society and supporting the church. The Church absorbed Nazi ideals and preached them as part of their sermons in turn Hitler placed Catholic teachings in public education. This photo depicts Hitler with Archbishop Cesare Orsenigo, the papal nuncio in Berlin. It was taken On April 20, 1939, when Orsenigo celebrated Hitler's birthday. The celebrations were initiated by Pacelli (Pope Pius XII) and became a tradition.Each April 20, Cardinal Bertram of Berlin was to send "warmest congratulations to the Fuhrer in the name of the bishops and the dioceses in Germany with "fervent prayers which the Catholics of Germany are sending to heaven on their altars." (If you would like to know more about the secret dealings of Hitler and the Pope I recommend you get a book titled: Hitler's Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII, by John Cornwell)h) Due to Hitler's involvement with the Church he began enacting doctrines of the Church as law. He outlawed all abortion, raged a death war on all homosexuals, and demanded corporal punishment in schools and home. Many times Hitler addressed the church and promised that Germany would implement its teachings: "The National Socialist State professes its allegiance to positive Christianity. It will be its honest endeavor to protect both the great Christian Confessions in their rights, to secure them from interference with their doctrines (Lehren), and in their duties to constitute a harmony with the views and the exigencies of the State of today." -Adolf Hitler, on 26 June 1934, to Catholic bishops to assure them that he would take action against the new pagan propaganda "Providence has caused me to be Catholic, and I know therefore how to handle this Church." -Adolf Hitler, reportedly to have said in Berlin in 1936 on the enmity of the Catholic Church to National Socialism
