Almost all of the atrocities committed by any Bible-based religion were done by catholics. Some have been committed by so-called protestants and catholics in Ireland in particular and some in Europe. Fact.

As posted by someone else, the wars against muslims were not preemptive, but in response to aggression INITIATED by islam. The numbers of people killed by islamic aggression and terror FAR outstrip killings done by zealots connected with Bible-based religion. There is no comparison.

“Almost all of the atrocities committed by any Bible-based religion were done by catholics”.............


Tell that to John Fisher, Thomas More, Edmund Campion, etc. The hunting down of priests in England and Ireland was what caused ‘priestholes’ to be built into the walls of castles and mansions. Catholics in Ireland were not exactly treated nicely by the ruling classes of England and neither were the Catholic priests, monasteries, etc. during the “May Laws” under Otto von Bismarck.

This thread is about the current Islamic crazies who are hell-bent on conquering the world for their faux-god, Allah. It does no one any good to throw out such incendiary charges when there were plenty of guilty parties, and many more who were not guilty - on both sides.
