Christianity; The World's most vile religion

[Sheldon]

It's a well known fact that, throughout its blood-soaked history, Christianity has been responsible for some of the worst acts in human history.

Genocides.
Persecutions.
Wars.
Crusades.
Massacres.

Slavery.
Pogroms.
Destruction of cultural treasures.

Perhaps the "good book" should be banned.

Perhaps instead of banning the bible, we ought to simply be appalled at the idea of such a deity, and that if a deity existed that acted as cruelly and barbarically as the one in the bible, far from worshipping it, we ought really to tell it to fuck right off. If we had anything worthy of the description of a moral compass that is. Sadly, when we defer our moral decisions to doctrine and dogma, the worst kind of atrocities are all too easy. Even "good" Nazis managed to blindly follow orders, morality requires that we weigh the consequences of our actions. 

“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities”

That is often attributed to Voltaire, but there is some debate, either way I think it has a point.
