It would be great if there was even a grain of truth that Christians were keen always to find peaceful solution, turn other cheek and that they only follow "good parts" from the Bible. I mean take the wars in Middle East that are only for oil wells and imagine if Christians in US and Europe got together and said "We demand wars be stopped. This war must be fought with logistics, not blood and that huge chunk of money invested in alternatives to oil." but that sounds ridiculous, that will never happen. For instance Catholic church probably makes billions sending priests to Middle East as a "moral" relief to soldiers and as an overall "moral" backing for the shameful deeds that apparently even Hillary and Trump are now accusing each other being for it.

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"
