THAT was EPIC! Thank you! I copied and pasted to my ever increasing arsenal of rebuttals for idiots on FB. Hope you don’t mind.
Never get between and goat humper and his goat...
In this day and age..one never knows!
In heaven, Ronald Reagan is laughing. Probably, very hard.
The Old Testament sanctions the annihilation of peoples who existed at that time.
The Koran, on the other hand, sanctions terrorism, torture, violence against unbelievers for all time.
That is a huge difference.
Whatever it “has been,” it might just be again. So deal with it.
Hey. Larry finally said something that got him in the news again.
Atheism and Mass Murder
Joseph Stalin’s atheistic regime killed tens of millions of people.
Concerning atheism and mass murder, Christian apologist Gregory Koukl wrote that “the assertion is that religion has caused most of the killing and bloodshed in the world.
There are people who make accusations and assertions that are empirically false. This is one of them.”[1] Koukl details the number of people killed in various events involving theism and compares them to the much higher tens of millions of people killed under atheistic communist regimes, in which militant atheism served as the official doctrine of the state.[1]
Communist regimes killed 60 million in the 20th century through genocide, according to Le Monde, more than 100 million people[2] according to The Black Book of Communism (Panné, J.L., Paczkowski A. et al, 1999).[3] and according to Cleon Skousen[4] in his best-selling book The Naked Communist.[5]
It is estimated that in the past 100 years, governments under the banner of atheistic communism have caused the death of somewhere between 40,472,000 to 259,432,000 human lives.[6] Dr. R. J. Rummel, professor emeritus of political science at the University of Hawaii, is the scholar who first coined the term democide (death by government). Dr. R. J. Rummel’s mid estimate regarding the loss of life due to communism is that communism caused the death of approximately 110,286,000 people between 1917 and 1987.[7]
The rest of the history

As are Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Jimmy Madison, JFK and even FDR.
The Catholic Church has never even been in the top ten.
And all those things being said from this idiot is about as ignorant as anybody can be.
Okay, I understand now. It's satire!
/s
Sorry, but you need to do some research. There are militant Hindus who are burning Christian churches and have put Christians to death. The current leader of India is a militant Hindu, causing great concern for churches in India.
Just dismiss it
Don’t try to reason it out
It’s like trying to reason the relativity of antebellum slavery with the self righteous
They don’t want a rational talk
They just see an easy cost free high road hammer
Now it's the DemocRAT Party, right Larry? Murdering people by the millions with special emphasis placed on baby killing.
Wow, so "get on our high horse" and "Marine corpse" trumps the Gettysburg Address and anything Washington and Jefferson ever said.
Vikings were Catholic?
Not get in the way. lol
‘What’s So Great About Christianity?’ Ask D’Souza
by Gary Bauer
D’Souza begins by busting the myth, pushed by so many atheist writers, that Christianity is on the wane in America. Armed with compelling statistics, D’Souza shreds the secularization narrative by explaining that while liberal church affiliation has plummeted in recent years, there has been significant growth in traditional Christian churches. And though we most often hear of Western Europe’s abandonment of Christianity, overall, there is “a global revival of religion,” and, contrary to popular opinion, Christianity, not Islam, is the fastest-growing religion in world today.
D’Souza then gets to the business of explaining just what is so great about Christianity. In a powerful passage, D’Souza highlights how Christianity has changed the world:
“The sublimity of Christ and his disciples completely reversed the whole classical ideal. Suddenly aristocratic pride came to be seen as something preening and ridiculous. Christ produced the transformation of values in which the last became the first, and values once scorned came to represent the loftiest of human ideals.”
Through Christianity, a new set of values (humility, compassion, charity, etc.) arose that served as the underpinning of the West’s most crucial institutions (monogamous marriage, family, basic human rights, etc.) and of American democracy. It is no accident that history’s great movements of conscience-abolition, desegregation, pro-life-have had firm roots in the faithful, who believe that all are equal in the eyes of God.
After stopping to debunk the lie that religion, and in particular Christianity, has been the source of most of the bloodshed throughout history (for example, only about 2,000 people were executed for heresy in the 350 year Inquisition, while the atheist regimes of Hitler, Mao and Stalin alone killed more than 100 million people), the author moves on to address what is for many the foremost obstacle to belief: The problem of evil.
