(5,881 posts)which is that an estimated 130 million people died because of these acts in the 20th century. The Nazis had far more powerful weapons at their disposal and yet killed fewer. By your reasoning that shouldn't have happened. Shovels, axes, and starvation were used to take a tremendous amount of lives, as well as fire arms.
As a matter of fact, according to your reasoning more should have died in WW II, but the death count was around 50 million. And yet the weaponry used was far more potent than that used in the backwoods of Russia or China.
The fact is, sir, that it happened, and that is what you are trying to obscure. First, you wrote it off as frivolous and now you say it happened, BUT. Your "logic" just doesn't hold, but you do know how to dance.
The most important point, though, is that regardless of how they died, religion WAS NOT the cause.
