You yourself answered the bigger question, it's not religion that kills people it's those bigots who manipulate sheep for their own gains. We already had an episode of mix feelings during the Crusades, when people were literally tearing each other apart like mad dogs for small patches of land even though Jesus basically said (somewhere along the lines) "that you will find God in your heart" not some church or small landmass, but I guess history repeats itself if not taught properly.


Yes, Jesus forgave a woman but since the bible wasn't written by Jesus, but by men with different points of view (men not being perfect from the start), we handled women differently and not along the lines of righteous in historical terms.



You are blowing those numbers out of proportion. As for the "Spanish Inquisition" as you mentioned is only a portion in Inquisition history Inquisition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia but even the inquisition is just a pebble in the hordes of corpses maimed/killed/traded in the name of God which includes the slave trade



This argument is weak at best, even in those times being evil wasn't justifiable specially when everyones life was already harsh, bringing more pain into life doesn't justify the means of being an evil person, thus a child molester then, is a child molester now, time doesn't change that fact, nor does my sympathy or peoples sympathy from the past. When we talk about molesters back then we are talking about those people who fresh up with toddlers and children.
