ANd I said:

Just Auschwitzes by Christians!!

In other words...a play on words to point out that Christians worked there and killed jews


I think "Auschwitzes by Christians" goes beyond just claiming there might have been nominal Christians there.

--------------------------------------------------------

<< it turned out that the post-Christian West produced considerably more evil than the Christian world had. No mass cruelty in the name of Christianity approximated the vastness of the cruelty unleashed by secular doctrines and regimes in the post-Christian world.>>

Which of course is a massive stretch in that technology (mass cruelty), population increases, and other factors has oodles more to do with more people being killed than anything else.


Hold up there a bit. Much of the Nazi killing wasn't done just in death camps, many villages were simply rounded up and shot individually. The mass killings in places like Cambodia, China, Russia, and elsewhere didn't involve much high tech beyond firearms. In addition, many died due to starvation and inhumane conditions in camps.

So appealing to technological advances doesn't amount to much to me .... do we have a similar record of Christian-led regimes committing mass genocide in recent centuries?

-------------------------------------------------

That said, YOU went on to assert there WERE NO Christians "working" there, killing jews... which of course is also pretty darn twisted and sick.

Really? I thought I showed the commandant of Auschwitz wasn't a Christian and challenged you to name one Christian involved.
