The total body count for the ninety years between 1917 and 2007 is approximately 148 million dead at the hands of fifty-two atheists, three times more than all the human beings killed by war, civil war, and individual crime in the entire twentieth century combined. – The Irrational Atheist, by Vox Day, page 240
“When I began my career as a cosmologist… I was a convinced atheist. I never imagined that I would be writing a book purporting to show that the central claims of Judeo-Christian theology are in fact true …. straightforward deductions of the laws of physics… I have been forced into these conclusions by the inexorable logic of my own special branch of physics.” – Frank Tipler, professor of mathematical physics
"Nothing will prevent me from eradicating totally, root and branch, all Christianity in Germany." - Adolf Hitler, April 7, 1933
"Christianity is an invention of sick brains. ... The best thing is to let Christianity die a natural death. ... We commence hostilities against the so-called Ten Commandments; the tablets from Sinai are no longer in force." --Adolf Hitler
“If you believe in evolution and naturalism then you have a reason not to think your faculties are reliable.” - Alvin Plantinga
Dear @MrWonderful
1. Those "52 atheists" did not act alone to kill people themselves.
Many other people ran the death camps and committed acts of genocide.
This included people who believed they were doing the work of God
and following the Bible. There is video footage of people "singing hymnals as Christian choir" before returning to work running the concentration camps.
2. The common factor in acts of war, genocide, jihad terrorists attacks, and other crime and violence is RETRIBUTION, UNFORGIVENESS and ILL WILL.
That is independent of religion, anyone can be caught up in this cycle of retribution regardless of one's faith, affiliation, religious or political identity.
The common factor in overcoming evil, greed, oppression, abuse that leads to war and violence is FORGIVENESS and COMPASSION for all humanity.
Again, this factor that breaks the cycle of abuse, oppression and violence
can be found in ANY person of ANY belief or group.
Collectively when people UNITE in this spirit of RESTORATIVE JUSTICE, that is what it means for the PEOPLE or the CHURCH BODY to be made WHOLE in the spirit of CHRIST JESUS. It's about agreeing to receive FORGIVENESS and CORRECTION to HEAL relations and humanity from past injustices and wrongs.
This is the meaning behind Christianity and what Christ Jesus represents, as RESTORATIVE JUSTICE to bring healing and peace to ALL humanity united as one, but it is not restricted to just "Christians."
Any and ALL people of ANY faith or no faith at all, can agree to live together in peace by Restorative Justice and it's the same meaning as taught in Christianity using the Bible.
