Pope Pius XI accused Hitler of violating the principles of the Catholic Church and undermining human dignity through his oppressive regime and policies, particularly those targeting Jews and other marginalized groups. In his encyclical "Mit Brennender Sorge" (With Burning Concern), issued in 1937, the Pope condemned the Nazi government's attempts to control the Church and its teachings, as well as its promotion of racial ideology. He emphasized the importance of moral truth and justice, rejecting the totalitarian nature of Hitler's regime.
