the bible god killed millions on his own so i would say the followers have killed even millions more or billions since it came about.
christianity is based on hate so i would like to say anyone who reads the bible follows the bible is a christian no matter if they say they are or not since pagans dont go around killing people and neither do atheist.

The crimes of the past are no excuse for allowing crimes in the future.
The Crusades which ended over 500 years ago and the forced conversion of native Americans to Spanish Catholicism in the Americas do not justify the modern Islamic jihad.

At least when the Christians and Muslims kill people, it's usually in open warfare. What disgusts me is how the Jews have been going around blood-ritualing babies, children and young women since 1144, and, before then, in ancient times.

Did you ever think that maybe that's what God wanted? They say the Lord works in mysterios ways, so perhaps when rabid pitbulls maul the entire preschool class at the church-sponsored daycare, that's just how it was supposed to work out as punishment for the sins of the parents?

Fireball 2, Jesus did not die.
Real humans have been killed in the millions. If we just counted the Nazis.

I think in reality Christianity or any religious belief isn't the core reason for someone being killed or for wars starting. I think deep down inside it is greed and polical power.

Innumerable; Most likely, countless deaths in ancient times due to religion have been unrecorded, so it is just about impossible to know the exact number, or anything close.

God only knows! If you get to heaven, ask Him.
Jesus Christ Is the Only Way To Heaven!
In The Holy Bible, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6. He meant “I am the only way to God the Father and to heaven”, “I am the only truth that you need to know.” and “I am the only spiritual life available to mankind.” In other words, “I am the only true and living God.”
All other so-called gods are false gods. They are not real. They do not exist. No other so-called god has the power to forgive, cleanse and remove all your sins from you to get you to heaven. They don't even claim to.
I pray you will believe this and accept the fact that you are a sinner needing to be saved from your sins (“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23, The Holy Bible.) and accept the fact that the blood Jesus Christ shed for you at Calvary is the only way you can have your sins forgiven, cleansed and removed and is the only way you can get to heaven. I pray you will acknowledge that you are a sinner and ask Jesus Christ to forgive, cleanse and remove all you sins and accept Him into your heart/life to live for Him the rest of your life. (“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” John 1:12, in the Holy Bible.) That is what it means to be born again. (“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3 in The Holy Bible.) Salvation is a free gift. You cannot work for it. You cannot be good enough to earn it. You must, by faith, receive it as a free gift. (“8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.”) Ephesians 2:8-9.
God loves you and it is not His will that you perish in hell.
(“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” II Peter 3:9 in The Holy bible.)
This is my prayer for you
