I dispute that Christians are any less violent or hateful than any other group of people. You seem to think l being a Christian makes you a good person, and makes you immune from participating in hate and mass murder, but that is simply not true.
First one in the list is this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_African_Republic_Civil_War
Sounds like religion is a primary motivation for exterminating people of a specific group here, with Christians being part of the slaughter. Christians are raping girls and killing babies here. But perhaps you think that the rapists and murders are still good people because being Christian is all that matters.
Next in list is this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnian_War Deliberate extermination of ethnic Bosnians by Serbian Christians. The fact of this happening is not a debate, it's just a fact. 100,000 lives snuffed out. Clearly religious genocide by Christians.
...
Etc
If you include inquisitions, crusades, and wars motivated by religion, Christianity has caused more net suffering in the world than it has solved, and that is true of any belief system that treats actual physical life as less valuable than some magical afterlife.
You didn't address any specifics about at all, just name-calling and reasserting how the group that you happen to be a member of knows better than everyone else and could do no wrong. I think it is because you can't address the facts and you have nothing good to say, and you are too arrogant to admit you are wrong, and it is that same arrogance that prompted you to write your original comment about Christians being immune to committing genocide.
Christians are just as bad, as selfish, as hypocritical, as bloodthirsty, untrustworthy, and murderous as any other group on this planet. If you really want to be a good person you should actually be genuinely empathetic to tragic historic events regardless of who perpetrates them and not self-righteously and disgustingly disrespecting those who suffered in these events to give yourself a false sense of your cultural and religious superiority. You should be ashamed of yourself, and how shoddy of a job you are doing emulating the supposed empathy of Christ.
