FWB,
You should try some of Hitlers speeches, or maybe reading Mein Kampf. There are plenty of references with him proclaiming religious affiliation. I'm sure he also hammed it up as some people will say anything to get elected. He used religion as one of the identifiers to unite the group of people he wanted to have in Germany. And the bulk of people who were Nazi officials (and who followed his orders without question) were Christians.
As for him being a socialist - not really. His brand of socialism was for the benefit of the State not the people. Germany had private industry - not exactly a staple of real socialism. He used elements of left wing socialism to achieve right wing stateism.
