Just because a person claims to be a Christian, that does not mean they act like a Christian. Christ never taught war, hatred or violence. In fact, when Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane the night before he died, and Peter cut off the ear of a Roman guard who had come to arrest Jesus, Christ healed the man's ear and told Peter to put his sword away, because "those who live by the sword shall die by the sword."
Jesus also taught that the two greatest commandments were to love God with your whole heart, soul, mind, strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself.
Even if you only ever read these 2 passages from the gospels, it is clear that Jesus in no way promoted, condoned or participated in any acts of violence against any person, regardless of color, creed, sex or race.
As a true Christian I do not promote war, prejudice or violence, nor those who do. Instead, I look to God for answers, because He is " a lover of justice" and will solve the world's problems in His own due time.

Well noob, here's a little advice. If you want to get into childish bomb tossing, you should learn how to make a point. I mean ANY kind of point. You should ask a rock that question. The rock will be smarter than you.
I feel dirty and stupid for answering this.

Xianity has fully supported hate, intolerance, racism, and oppression for the large majority of its time on this planet. Why would that change over 2000 years?

Jesus Christ said to Love God & to love others and do to others as we would have them do to us.
True Christianity teaches love, healing & victory. Restoration to God.
