Really?
Watch me bury you:
'The total number of deaths estimated to lie at the feet of humanity's poor practice of Christianity is approximately 17 million. This number would include ancient wars, the
Crusades, the
Inquisitions, various European wars during the Middle Ages, and witchcraft trials.
-- DEATHS ATTRIBUTED TO NON-CHRISTIANITY
Now let's look at the number of killings attributed to non-Christianity, including atheism and other anti-religious forces. To be conservative, we will limit the count of anti-religious killings to the last seventy years or so.
First, from the early 1930's to 1945,
Hitler's Germany exterminated
6 million Jews and killed about
9 million Christians. Although Hitler was an occultist, he chose the swastika for Germany's emblem; a symbol ancient German Christians used (as did Buddhists). The swastika appeared in the brick work of an old boyhood school he attended of which he had fond memories (
"The SS, Alibi of a Nation" by Gerald Reitlinger). But Hitler loathed Christianity as much as Judaism, as he stated in one of his shrill orations,
Historically speaking, the Christian religion is nothing but a Jewish sect... After the destruction of Judaism, the extinction of Christian slave morals must follow logically... We are fighting against the perversion of our soundest instincts. ...That poison with which both Jews and Christians have spoiled and soiled the free, wonderful instincts of man and lowered them to the level of doglike fright.

One of the first points I made was the Nazis and all of the high members of the Nazi party were Christians. Hitler has stated in public that he too was a Christian. Yes we a person claim Hitler announced that he was not a christian in private but no documents to back it up. Your second paragraph was not said by Hitler but by Herman Rauschning.
The authenticity of the discussions Rauschning claims to have had with Hitler between 1932 and 1934, which form the basis of his book 'Hitler Speaks', was challenged shortly after Rauschning's death by Swiss researcher Wolfgang Hänel. Hänel declared that 'Gespräche mit Hitler' (the German title of Hitler Speaks) was a fraud and that the book has no value "
except as a document of Allied war propaganda".
I noticed you completely glossed over the part where I stated the Nazis has complete approval of the church.
Second, the Stalin purges in the Russian republics prior to and continuing after World War II killed roughly 40 to 60 million people; nearly wiping out every Christian church under Stalin's domain
Sorry but these numbers are ridiculously over-inflated. These numbers consist of people killed on both sides of the war and people killed by the famine. These numbers sound like R. J. Rummel's who has since been criticized for grossly inflating the numbers for political purposes.
Crappy Town: Why RJ Rummel Shouldn't Be Taken Seriously
Third, following World War II,
China saw to the end of more than
24 million lives during the first ten years of Mao's takeover
4, another
25 million killed or intentionally starved between 1959 and 1962
5, plus an additional
22 million killings in the 1970's Great Proletariat Cultural Revolution.
More grossly inflated numbers on both sides of the revolution. You need to get a source that isn't so biased.
Fourth, Cambodia suffered more than 2 million killed in its own bloody transition to anti-religious communism after United States forces suffered the fall of what was called Saigon and then largely withdrew from the region.
The rise if the Khmer Rouge wouldn't have happened if the US didn't bomb the whole country side of Cambodia to smithereens and don't forget the US supported the Khmer Rouge. Also Pol Pot was not a communist. Pol Pot was defeated by the Communists.
"Who Is And Was Really Responsible for Genocide in Cambodia?"
Fifth, the more recent rulerships within Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda,Sudan, and Iraq have each killed, systematically starved, or chemically or biologically poisoned hundreds of thousands of their own citizens. It will likely be decades before full numbers are tallied for these ongoing situations. (Since some would argue these are attributable to Islam, I will omit them from the tally.)
Why were they even brought up? Instead of just omitting them they should be brought to the religious side.
And sixth, for those who accept abortion as intentional killing
Doesn't fit the description. Also no one knows the actual religious position of anyone who has pereformed an abortion whether it be done by a doctor or on their ow. I do know that most women in the US who get abortions are Christians.
