If you REALLY want to be specific, you could make note of things like the fact that the Vatican objected to Hitler's euthanasia policies but not the holocaust and that one of the main justifications of the holocaust in Germany was Christian superiority and attribute the holocaust there too.

Where in the bible does it say that thou shalt kill all thine jews? I want numbers here.

still, I say war claimed more lives than your piddling religion.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Then one wonders why you aren't laying blame at the feet of the people who perpetuate atrocities under the guise of Christianity. The armies and the kings and the countries who go to war.

I can only assume you don't lay the blame where it belongs because you're too busy with all the cocks that need to be sucked.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm sure little Ester Evangalist was giving you a ton of lip before you gave us the enlightening factoid that religion has kiled a whole lot of people.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
