Blaming Christians for the Holocaust is beyond ignorant.

Where do you get that? I never blamed Christians, I said, that during the holocaust, a Jew wouldnt feel safe coming across that same group of men. Why? because it was not uncommon for Christian Germans to turn in their Jewish neighbors to the Nazis.

The Einstein quote is from a 1940 Time magazine article. It is not a direct quote from Einstein. In 1947 he distanced himself from that quote by saying he did have some praises of the Church in the early rise of Hitler, much earlier than 1940, but the quote greatly overstated his earlier statement. But Einstein left Germany in 1933 due to Hitlers rise, so he wasnt there for the persecutions. So honestly...what does he know?

BTW, did you know Muslim extremists now kill more people each year than were killed in the entire Inquisition?

So what...tell that to the Jews who were burned alive, terrorized and had to flee for their lives. Are you trying to minimize the evil of the inquisition?

Christian countries in general and America in particular are the only countries where Jews have ever been able to live in peace, and Jews once again have a nation of their own because Christian nations made it happen.

G-d made it happen, in spite of the Christian nations. In the 1920 San Remo conference, Israel was granted their historic homeland from the sea to the Jordan river, the League of Nations ratified it but the Christian nations then reneged on the deal, even though it is technically still binding to this day. It took the horrors of the holocaust for the Christian nations to relent and agree to a Jewish homeland. Is that your idea of Christian support? Or the boycotting of arms that the US did to Israel?

No, you are whitewashing history. The church has a lot of Jewish blood on its hands as well as a long history of abuse. Do you deny the Christian atrocities? Your Jesus would not agree with you. Here is a Christian article for you. History

“The church has a lot of Jewish blood on its hands”

Your highway only goes one way. But in reality it went both ways.

“Through out most of the last 2000 years,...”

No way in hell the negatives add up to “most” of two millenia or even a lot of two millenia.
