If only. There are plenty of Christians who are living in mansions and flying in private jets while millions of children are starving. They even collect money for them but use it instead to buy jewelry and limousines for themselves.
Just look at the case with Mother Teresa - like when she got $70 million every year for the poor in donations just so Christians can upgrade castles in the Vatican.
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"
