Yeah, I guess all those Europeans hiding Jews in their closets deserved to be sent to concentration camps when they were caught.
I guess all those slaves who were beaten for trying to escape to the North deserved those beatings.

I guess you missed the part where the entire story is not simply unfounded but an out and out lie?

Anyway - thankfully, for the most part, we HAVE moved past those times. That's why brutality such as religious persecution, stonings, beheadings, etc shock us. Let's just remember - our ancestors were guilty of the same actions, regardless of their religious views. Such actions were sanctioned by "civilized" governments.

Another one who apparently removed the Old Testament from the Bible.
Exodus 22:18 -
18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
So, Leviticus yes, Exodus no?
Seems like an awful lot of Christians are picking and choosing how to follow God's word.

Christians want to deny the Old Testament, the history of the Christian Church, and modern day events that were born out of the Christian faith such as:
I have heard ppl say RELIGION CAUSES MORE PROBLEMS THAN ANYTHING and wheni read stories like this I am reminded of that!!
Very sad
What are you talking about, the picture of a shredded hand from 2010 that was first said to be a paper shredder accident, and this year has become a bible picture. . .
Even for a paper shredder accident it looks fake. . .
