Many people used biblical views to justify the cleansing/purification of non-christian peoples from their impure path. A sick philosophy, but not really in any way promoted by the bible (and I really do mean that most sincerely).

Christianity has a worldwide moral implication, inasmuch as anyone who doesn't follow that worldview is doomed to eternal torment. May as well kill 'em now, then?

I don't see where eternal judgment in hell logically precedes "kill them now." The Bible does make moral judgments. Of course. It also has a rescue mechanism which forbids killing them now. Vengeance and final judgment are the Lord's. I don't know who is saved or who is not. I just tell the story.
