at this moment in uganda, christians are supporting laws that would
impose the death penalty for being gay or not reporting those who are.


Many prominent Nazis in the 1930s and 1940s loudly proclaimed their
christianity, even as they sent millions of jews, gypsies, homosexuals
and physically and emotionally challenged to their death camps.

In 1933, Hitler stated:

"The National Government will regard it as its first and foremost duty
to revive in the nation the spirit of unity and co-operation. It will
preserve and defend those basic principles on which our nation has been
built. It regards Christianity as the foundation of our national
morality, and the family as the basis of national life."

Adolf Hitler. (1941). My New Order. New York: Reynal & Hitchcock, p. 144.

Yep...those christian family values...gave us Auschwitz, Chełmno,
Bełżec, Majdanek, Sobibór, and Treblinka,

There is of course plenty of historical documentation about jews
slaughtered and otherwise mistreated by christians going back thousands
of years.

So, what's the difference if you are killed by an overzealous christian
or an overzealous muslim? You're just as dead.
