And to be fair, they also did some great things, too. Without German scientists and engineers there would be no space flight, no highways, no modern jets, etc. There is a reason why one of the biggest contentions after the war was who will get the brains behind the Reich for their own uses.

Science, like religion and economics, is not an evil unto itself. It is a means to power for good or bad. And like all means to power they can be easily perversed by evil men.
