How is Christianity Unique?

...that's easy; Christianity is not unique for teaching Love...or family values...or obedience to laws....or condemning rape...or theft. Every religion past and present has taught these things because no human society could endure if it did not....just as no family could.

...therefore these shared teachings do not make Christianity unique...in fact it shares 99% of its beliefs with other modern religions....it is almost like other major religions...but not quite. And, in fact, the things that it and only it believes and teaches are quite far from anything taught in any religion today.

...as even Minime has finally understood; Christians teach and believe "wrong things"...you can say that again! And what wrong things! We're talking major wrongs here...like cannibalism and vampirism...and hanging instruments of torture and death around children's necks...and teaching that it's okay to seek benefits that can only come through murder...these are, indeed "wrong"...as even Minime finally admits.

...this is fact...here's where opinion enters into it. It's my opinion that teaching crimes to children in the guise of religion has been a recipe for disaster and is responsible in large part for the disproportionate amount of murder and mayhem Christians have brought to us all.

...This belief of mine is, indeed, my opinion. Can I back it up with any facts? I think so. Looking back over the last two centuries we can see, as a matter of fact and not opinion, that Christian nations have fought more wars, conducted more pogroms and Holocausts, more genocide...travelled further around the world and away from their borders to attack other nations, murdering millions of innocent people, just like they needed their lord to be murdered before they could "benefit" from him...They have been the only ones to drop atom bombs on sleeping women and children...and attacked more innocent nations on trumped up charges....than any other religious group on earth.

...calling me a fly won't change those facts...they are not opinions either. To refute them people need to bring FACTS that make the opposite case...or destroy my own facts...for instance; tell us of other wars started by other religions...list the duration and total destrcution of the other wars to compare to those begun by Christians..also, show that someone other thasn Chritians has kiled more Christians than anyone else...this is, after all, a form of cannibalism; to "eat ones own"...and maybe there's a connection to the Eucharist there too.

...There are legitimate ways to shoot down my "opinions"...calling me names won't do it...but we're grateful for anyone who tries.
