Reply #19: Christianity took root in western civilization

[sangh0]

and western civilization was the first to industrialize, giving it the tools for mass destruction. I don't think there's anything inherent in Christianity, or in any religion, that explains it. For example, atheistic govts (ie Communist China) has killed tens of millions.

And your point about gullible followers is an interesting one. I'll have think some more about it. Thank you.
