1. Where specifically in the OT does it indicate that Christians should kill people they don't agree with? If your claim is true, it should be trivially easy to back up.

Exodus  Suffer not a witch to live.  If you don't know of the countless other atrocitites performed at the command of god, you need to read more, or else you've interpreted them to satisfaction.

2. I agree that it is frustrating when anyone can't keep definitions straight.

3. No, one does not follow from the other. To make your statement true, it would have to be the case that only unchristian acts resulted in the continued existence of Christianity.

Bullshit

Since I was talking about the definition and expected actions of a Christian, no the NT is not ambiguous to anyone who cares to actually read what it has to say on the subject.

I guess that include most christians, as most know the bible principally from what they are told is says, not what is written.
