Christians don't usually employ suicide bombers, but they sure as hell count on God to be on their side when we carpet bomb and are absolutely sure he is..... And don't tell me that ole W isn't on his knees at night asking for guidance on how best to beat Saddam....

Well Moses and Joshua are the poster children for God-sanctioned genocide aren't they?

The Crusades were patterned after Joshua's crusade.

Hitler often appealed to Catholic anti-Semitism to justify his acts, and the Catholic church tacitly complied. At the same time the Catholic Ustasha was running it's own death camps in Yugoslavia, exterminating mostly Protestants.

And then there's that thing about Christians enslaving and trading an entire race of people for 400 years or so right here in the new world.
