The idea of a 'master race' is pointedly evolutionist, not Christian.
Indeed it is. But the prejudices of the useful idiots who served the master race theorists were all informed by Christianity.
Oh come on - just Christianity thinks it is the only way?
The other one that springs to mind is Islam--another offshoot of Judaism that just can't seem to coexist with Jews. With one or two exceptions, anytime in history you find a religious war, Jews, Christians or Muslims will be at least one of the participants. The "People of the Book", members of one of the religions of the Arabian Peninsula are the only ones who consistently try to kill non-believers.
The Jews were the first. When they returned to Israel from Egypt, they sacked towns and killed everyone, man woman and child. And that kiddies was the invention of Genocide.

I don't know if this will fly. Have you notice no scriptures being quoted by those who hate Mel, his movie and Christ. But hey it might be interesting to start quoting a few scriptures. Never know what light will shine through.

Absolute nonsense. Christianity is not about how the Jews did this dastardly thing. It's about what Christ did for us - willingly - out of His great love.
"The other one that springs to mind is Islam--another offshoot of Judaism that just can't seem to coexist with Jews."
Every faith (and I'm including atheism and agnosticism as "faiths") believes it is the one that has it right. If they didn't think they had it right, why would they belong to that faith?
Perhaps the issue for you is the belief of Christians (and others) that there is a place of eternal punishment. But frankly, given the world we live in, believing in having to be born over and over until you get it right is a lot more cruel.
