...sorry I don’t have the time to address all the different sides brought up here.

Don, when I stated that Christianity today is responsible for most wars, bloodshed and atrocities, I was referring in a roundabout way to the US and its allies who are looked at by the rest of the world as Christian powers and countries. It was a Christian president who recently unleashed an unprecedented slaughter on totally false pretenses on the citizen of Iraq, which killed hundreds of thousands of innocent bystanders.

It is a successive line of US presidents and governments who have killed countless Palestinians in their misplaced and ill-conceived support for Mideast state-terrorist #1, the Zionist state of Israel. The same folks support every oppressive, undemocratic regime, ranging from South America, the Mideast to Africa – as long as these regimes further the US agenda and its interests.

How many hundreds of thousands, probably millions have died by the hands of these US sponsored tyrants – God only knows!

I can hear your forthcoming argument already ringing in my ears “but these are not REAL Christians”! That leads me to the old, and between the two of us much discussed, metaphor “would the real Jesus (and his real followers) please stand up?”… I really don’t care who the real followers of Jesus are, if they are born again, bear the fruits of the spirit, are true disciples, participate in the Eucharist, believe in the end time, a pre or post trippers, acknowledge the trinity, blah, blah, blah…

In the eyes of the rest of the world, that is watching, we are the Judeo-Christian world responsible for most wars and tensions on this planet.

To carelessly pass this label to the Muslim world is simply naïve and uninformed.
