Yeah, and Justin Trudeau asked Pope Francis to apologize for “cultural genocide”. But Justin is naive if he thinks that the pope would ever apologize for something that is the core of Christianity, which is to destroy all other religions (and therefore cultures) and replace them with Christianity. It's straight from the mouth of Jesus: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."
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"
