...in his fascinating account of how he wound up discovering the ruins of Nineveh (and thereby creating an identity for Aprim) Layard describes his slow journey from England to Iraq via the Balkans where he carries a letter of introduction to the archbishop of whatever savage Christian sect lives there. During their cordial meeting there is an interruption when a group of Christians stop by for a blessing...they carry a bag filled with nine heads of Muslim children....yes, children, which they've just culled that evening in a raid on a village. The Archbishop does as they expect, blesses them for their Christian zeal...and then sheepishly apologizes to a shocked Layard by saying..."what can I do, they expect it".

There you have the real utility of Christian morals....in the first place it is the Church itself which teaches hatred of pagans, Jews and Muslims...and then turns around and says, "what can I do, THEY expect it"...and counsels "love and tolerance".

The bloody record of what Christians have done to their own kind, never mind pagans and Jews etc., is the most appalling story of brutality and bloodlust the world has ever known...and it's easy to understand why...when you believe in 24 gods yourself, you're not that apt to get furious with someone who believes in 15....or 560. You already know there is no "ONE GOD"...this makes you tolerant. But when you insist there is only ONE, and he is YOUR GOD, and proceed to kill all those who disagree, you're only one step away from killing all those who claim that one god is THEIR god, and not yours....the whole thing encourages extremism and sheer madness.

You start out killing all those who don't believe in one god...then move on to kill all those who don't accept YOUR god as the only one god allowed and finally wind up killing those who believe in THEIR one god, while not even denying you YOUR one god. And all of this is done in the name of GOD...and we're still at it!

Christian morals is a moronic ox.
