Really?

It seems so. The Holocaust and the Crusades and Inquisition come to mind. Stalin was awful to Christians, but largely ignored the ones who weren't political threats, so he wasn't actually killing them for being Christians, but for being in the way of him having total control.

Christians fare poorly in some Islamic states, and it's a tragedy, but I don't think they've caught up yet, body-count-wise. Which doesn't diminish the tragedy at all.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
