That particular way of putting it doesn't quite imply, but still connotes, the idea that slaughter, rapine, and torture are the common thread of religions -- neglecting that such things have been common throughout ALL of recorded history, for lots of different reasons.
So, phrased in that way, it smells of atheistic hubris...
(Yes, this was near the top of your posting history. I'll scroll further down, too.)
Cheers!
No, that is not what I am saying at all. Again, my statement was quite straightforward and pretty simple to understand: simply the fact that people of all faiths have committed atrocities -- just a short renunciation of another poster's statement that no Christians in all of recorded history have ever instigated unjustified violence.
Your error (and I think, partly, the other poster's also) is in incorrectly equating what I said about the people with being some sort of disparaging or dismissing statement about the Christian faith in general and of Jesus' original, uncorrupted message. It is not equatable. Understand where I'm coming from and what I'm saying now?
