Well Christ said that he brought the sword and this video man would define a religion in terms of its relative pacifism. He would make an excellent hindu.

All he said was that any religion which actively prosecutes a policy of earthly retribution upon its detractors or non-adherents is invalid. And he’s right. I personally believe there is no demand on Christians to be pacifists (I know Christians who disagree with that) but at the same time Christianity has no concept of Jihad. The great commission is to “go out and make all men my disciples” not “kill them if they refuse”.
