That was the church, not the Christians.

Yup. Just like Islam is a religion of peace and the suicide bombers are just really confused folks that have nothing to do with Islam.... I mean I'm sure some people buy that nonsense, but most people with a lick of common sense think that Catholic Christians burnt Protestants (and Muslims, Jews, etc.) and Protestant Christians burnt Catholics and other Protestants. You have to be pretty out of touch with reality if you honestly believe that forced conversions haven't been conducted by Christians of all stripes. Look at black Americans today -- do you really, honestly think their slave ancestors came to the US as AME baptists? Of course not. Christians have practiced forced conversions on each other and on non-Christians for 2000 years and that practice continues in some places til present day.
