Hello plato,

> “Dear Dave, I am very confused. In your first statement you strongly imply that Christianity was not responsible for WWII. In your second statement you strongly imply that Christianity was responsible. Which statement do you really believe? Or perhaps you have yet to make up your mind.”

In the first place, I am judging Christianity by the standards by which I judge a religion for the crimes of its followers.

In the second place, I am judging Christianity by the standards by which you judge a religion and its followers.

***

If Islam is responsible for 9/11, Christianity is responsible for Hiroshima & Nagasaki.

vs.

If Christianity is not responsible for Hiroshima & Nagasaki, Islam is not responsible for 9/11.

Tell me your morality and we will begin judging religions.
