Your use of the word Genocide in your favorite historical tragedy belies your attempt to explain away or ignore the vastly larger numbers of people killed in the 20th century, by non-religious governments. The larger numbers comes from the obvious fact of larger populations and more efficient killing machines.

I did not bring up the issue about who killed the most people: religeous or secular governments, but thanks for making my point. Only paucity of resources and victims deprived the religeous authorities of the all-time genocide championship crown.

When it comes to genocide, you can't get easily get beyond 100 percent, which would mean killing all the men, women and children in a conquered city.
