least *4* people who murdered for God? One of the most popular talking points among Y/Atheists is that Christianity, historically, has been used to justify wars and genocides. The problem with this viewpoint is that Y/Atheists simply cannot provide credible evidence to prove that Christianity *alone* has been the cause of all these wars and horrors of the past. There may have been instances in which an event was influenced by Christianity, or another religion, or there may have been an event in which someone that identifies as a Christian did something horribly wrong ... but there's a big difference between simply identifying with something and doing something *in the name of what they identify with*
I'll start with non-religious / atheistic regimes ...
- Mao: 70 million murdered
- Hitler: 17 million murdered
- Stalin: 10 million murdered
- Pol Pot: 2.5 million + (25% of Cambodian population)
TOTAL: Nearly 100 million +
Atheists, please name me at least four leaders in the past who murdered *in the name of God* which in total resulted in more than 100 million deaths. Oh and by "people" I don't just mean anyone, I mean leaders of regimes like the USSR.
