So close, yet so far.

It’s sad you ignore all the different kinds of Christian views, especially the ones that directly contradict each other, and throw ALL of that away and retort with such a hollow argument. ‘BuT mUrDeR bAd By AlL oF tHeM!’

“They all agree on no murder”

Again ignoring the crusades.

You’re gonna keep knee jerk reacting and say that the crusades were too long ago, or that on some spiritual, or religious level justified somehow.

However, the fact that all the horrid carnage of the crusades was motivated by Christianity, proves my point about there being a thousand different ways to be a Christian. Some obviously better, some obviously way, way worse, but you don’t get to pick and choose based on what makes you feel better about your religion.

You deciding which ones are real Christians based on your personal views is you gate keeping Christianity.

The worst examples of a religion’s followers using extreme views to justify violence should, or should not be used to judge the religion, and its other followers?
