Nobody in Africa deserves the religious pestilence that the Catholic (or other sects) are bringing. It's there, but it would be good if it died there, as well.
True but as I understand it they're locked in a battle for control of sub saharan Africa with the Islamists. Take your pick...

Eenie...Meenie...CRUSADE! Set up grandstands and let the natives watch the xtians and Muslims annihilate each other. A guy can dream, right? Toss the bodies to the carnivores, where they at least provide some utility. /s
I know you don't need the /s, but some people...

You know who died? Although it was last month.
Richard “Smokey” Wendell. He was a special kind of bodyguard that Hollywood celebrities, mostly in the 1980s, would hire to keep them off drugs. Like, when they go around to parties or studios or wherever, Smokey would watch over them so that they don't snort or smoke something psychedelic.
For some time he even guarded John Belushi who eventually fired him.
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"
