Charles D. Provan is a revisionist scholar and Christian theologian based in Monongahela, Pennsylvania.
As a Christian theologian, Provan is an advocate of a strict constructionist stance on contraception.
On the subject of World War II history, Provan is a skeptical historian who accepts some of the standard accounts of World War II Nazi policy toward Jews, including mass murder in gas chambers in Auschwitz-Birkenau and Treblinka. Provan has demonstrated the scientific feasibility of mass murder by diesel gas vans against the thesis of Friedrich P. Berg. Provan is a leading authority on the meaning and provenance of the German word ausrottung as used by Adolf Hitler to denote the intent to exterminate Jews.
Provan upholds the rights of Holocaust deniers to deny homicidal gas chambers without penalty or imprisonment and believes that some gas chambers were operated by Jews, particularly in Treblinka. For this reason, a video of an interview with Provan was banned and removed by Google from the Google Video website.
Provan has appeared at revisionist conferences as a guest speaker. David Irving hosted a lively debate between Provan and historian Brian Renk in Cincinnati, Ohio on the subject of homicidal gas chambers.
His "holocaust-related" works have been featured in the controversial Institute for Historical Review. His book The Bible and Birth Control is regarded as providing theological justification for adherents within the Quiverfull movement.
Beyond The Bible and Birth Control, Provan's titles include No Holes? No Holocaust? and The Church Is Israel Now.
