“It is true that about 500 years ago, Christian fanatics killed about 10,000 people over a 100 year time period (about 100/year) in the name of the Roman Catholic church
And 800 years ago they killed half a million for the same reason

Like Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and the Kims, the various Popes killed for one reason: maintaining absolute power.

There’s your problem, not atheism, or religion. “

Correction, as a Christian, and Bible based, don’t label ME a Catholic. Catholics are not Christians. Limit your reply to Catholics since they are the ones that murdered others in the name of Catholicism.

Yeah just write off the Church Jesus Christ Himself Founded... Yeah that Pope benedict XVI looks like a real Zealot on his recent USA visit..

The Catholic Monks of Europe lead the Western Civilization Read a Little History! In New and innovative Agriculture Wineries Mettalurgy Augauducts Education Charity etc..

The benedictine Monks of England had the Most Advanced Mettalurgical Furnaces to start the Industrial age They were stymied by Henry 8th by disbanding Them ... as they did in France later on..

Excuse me. Care to clarify that bigoted statement?
