Paul's writings are bad enough in their own right. At least for people having some shreds of human decency left and don't subscribe to misogyiny, endorsments of slavery and other things along these beautiful lines.
By the way, you don't extend the same courtesy to atheists. We are all alike for you, ready for your judgmental attitudes. Probably because we don't have a mgic book to go by. Which leads me to the no true scotsman fallacy. People considering themselves christians, pray to the same god as you do. It makes no difference that you're not agreeing with them. They are christians by self definition.
Which is entirely moot in this discussion, since Hitler probably didn't consider himself a christian. The lines become more blurry though with human gems such as Mussolini, Franco or Pinochet. These examples of humanities best certainly considered themselves to be christians, closely aligned with the catholic church.
I know, I know, since you're subscribing to the evangelical madness, which I consider more hurtful than the Catholic one, you don't consider Catholics to be real christians also. Which, as far as your opinion is concerned, is a moot point too.
