Hideki Tojo Around 7 Million - Atheist
Pot Around 1.5 Million - Atheist

And so on...

Not to mention both world wars were not because of religion.
Were they all carnivores and heterosexuals too? Does it matter? Besides, everyone knows Hitler wasn't an atheist.

Hitler was whatever religion he needed to be to gain more power. He even said he did not care about Chritianity. Hitler did not have a religion, so he was an atheist. If you do not want to believe that, then what about the others that were posted? Stalin and Zedong killed more than Hitler.

Yikes you are interested in what? You clearly stated where you are coming from by saying Christians are legislating against other people without any basis in fact.
Um, Prop 8? Certainly you remember the religious arguments that dominated that.

Hitler was raised Roman Catholic and never claimed to be an atheist. He continued to say he believed in God despite no longer belong to a formal religion.
