Anton Holzner (the pseudonym for SS-Sturmbanführer Albert Hartl) was a former Catholic priest who left the priesthood and the church and became an SS officer.
Two of his books, Eternal Front and Master Life, present the non-Christian religious attitude often referred to as "gottgläubig". His other two books, Priest Power and God's Law, reveal the methods of the priesthood. God's Law provides a fascinating portrayal of the six stages of his evolution: from fun-loving little boy to rebellious cloister school pupil to exemplary theology student to idealistic young priest to disillusioned older priest who leaves priesthood and church to become a National Socialist.
