teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Then why does he act like one? Purging his enemies, invading other countries, hoarding wealth, jailing rivals and dissenters…sounds pretty damned Christian to me.

Then why is he crossing himself during Christian rituals?

And praying to icons?

Maybe not a 'True' christian.
Is that an icon of Mary he's sniffing?
