Why should Christians be moral?

[abaris]

God is not bound by what some of us think to be escape clauses (Which is how things like the crusades and the inqusition were justified)

Of course, why should god not take some pride in his finest moments? Killing off the jews while marching through Europe on the first crusade. Then killing unbelievers all throughout Anatolia and last but not least, killing all the inhabitants of Jerusalem when sacking the city in 1099. Of course, besides of muslims, again jews and probably some christians on the side, since they got in the way of the holy warriors.

The inquisition speaks for itself with their heroes like Jakob Sprenger, author of the Malleus Maleficarum, whom even some high ranking church leaders considered insane. And let's not forget the happy heretics roastings in Spain, after they had finally destroyed a civilization that was their better in almost every aspects of life.

What a wonderful god! Where's the nearest church, so that I can give him his due?
