The Nazis or the KKK?
They both promote intolerance and slave labor just like the Bible does, so which group is more accurate?

The Spanish Inquisition was one of the greatest examples of true Christianity in recorded history.
Of your choices, probably the Nazis. They did a much better job at the actual elimination of non-Christians as Jesus said to do.

Neither.
The anti-Semitism of both is condemned in the Bible:
Genesis 12:3 And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."
Slavery is not promoted in the Bible. Just because something is recorded in the Bible does not mean that it is accepted or promoted.
Intolerance? Since when did tolerance become your manrta? The doctrine of tolerance is the most intolerant of all because it refuses to permit free speach, freedom of religion, freedom of thought and expression. The tolerance mantra says that you can believe anything as long as you agree with tolerance. Tolerance is a self defeating concept.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
Matthew 10:34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."
Intolerant? You bet. Intolerant of sin. Intolerant of blaspheme. Intolerant of intentional and knowing sin.

The bible does not promote or endorse slavery, so your premesis is flawed. In fact, slavery may be mentioned in the bible, but that does not mean the bible endorses slavery.

Rape and murder are also reported in the Bible, but that does not mean the Bible is promoting rape and murder.

Why are you blaming the Holy Bible for individuals that have chosen to live their life for the enemy? They certainly aren't follow the teaching of Jesus Christ.
Read the Holy Bible for yourself...

The bible is very vague it can be interperated pretty much any way that you want.
A person can use that as an excuse to do good or evil, and the choice is pretty much up to the individual.

Are you being sarcastic?if not then you need to read and understand the Bible's theme which is God's kingdom not slavery,unless you mean slavery to sin's law.

Neither - both are twisting the truth. This isn't even applicable to them.
