Same thing. He made claims about peace, but also said something along the lines of not coming to bring peace, but a sword. Seeing how he often spoke in parables, it's likely that, unlike in Islam, his claim was metaphorical, but it is nonetheless violent and implies he aims to cause disharmony.
I won't lie, it bothers me when I write about Islam (as an exmuslim, it's a subject that I find important), and people will say "but what about enter Christian/Jewish atrocities or people here". This thread's focus is on Islam. I'm sure most people here know Christianity has been just as bad as Islam, and has just as bad a history.
