What does the Pope stand to gain by comparing Atheists to Nazis?

Aside from the irony of the Pope's statement, I think the Church has bigger things to be doing than calling Atheists names.

    Seems that Roger Cohen agrees: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/17/opinion/17iht-edcohen.html

    My favorite line, "I can see why Benedict might view modern life on a largely secular European continent as a hedonistic wasteland. But it is preposterous for him to deplore the “moral relativism” of the West when the moral absolutes of the church have so often proved no more than a hollow shield — or even a seductive disguise — for predators."
