“Hitler was a pagan. So was Heinrich Himmler. Swell couple of guys, weren;t they?”

That is the intellectually dishonest fallacy of Arguing from the Particular to the General.

There are far more Christians who have perpetrated atrocities on a grand, institutionalized scale — such as nearly every Medieval monarch, noble and clergy.

Nice try.

Couching your own ad-hominem in a rant against fallacy raises your gall from mere nerve to outright effrontery. The most shallow attempt at research proves your vitriolic lies as shallow as your understanding of history:

Pay close attention to the part about individual behavior versus creed. Be careful not to overdose on fact. It’s dangerous for young minds to ingest too much truth at one sitting.

No, nice try at moral relativism Poindexter. First of all you dodged a statement of truth in the fact that the Nazis were pagans. Secondly for every monarch and noble who used Christianity as a rational to kill there were more real Christians to put an end to them. And lastly far more people have been slaughtered in the name of atheism than Christianity. The former Soviet Union and The Communist Chinese are proof of that. Try again.
