Texas state Sen. Charles Perry (R) used his inauguration speech on Tuesday to warn that a government without God was similar to the Holocaust under Nazi Germany.

After placing his hand on the Bible and taking the oath of office, the newly elected Republican talked about a “spiritual battle” that was been waged in the United States, according to Lubbock Online.

“There were 10,000 people that were paraded into a medical office under the guise of a physical,” Perry explained. “As they stood with their back against the wall, they were executed with a bullet through the throat. Before they left, 10,000 people met their fate that way.”

“Is it not the same than when our government continues to perpetuate laws that lead citizens away from God?” he asked. “The only difference is that the fraud of the Germans was more immediate and whereas the fraud of today’s government will not be exposed until the final days and will have eternal-lasting effects.”
