What, no books about other religions? How do you know Christianity is the right religion if you didn't study theology books from Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Scientology, witchcraft, etcetera? Seems very one-sided and very unresearched.
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"
