Which was the last war started by Christians? Where do you want me to start.
In Europe in the 1990s Serbian Christians massacring muslims, in the 1940s Croatian catholic massacring orthodox christians because they wouldn't convert to the 'true' christianity.
Most popes during the dark ages through to maybe 150 or so years ago. Most wars in Europe couldn't be won without the authority of the papacy who provided weapons, soldiers and 'the Blessing of God' Check out the history of Europe./ It is soaked in the blood of Christian wars

Every religious Dispensation has a Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. In the springtime, the religion is small and persecuted. Gradually, pure hearted people accept the Faith and help to spread its teachings. Eventually, a civilization develops which is based on the teachings of the Founder of the Faith, in this case Jesus. This is the spiritual summer-time of the religion. Eventually, the religion becomes entrenched in ecclesiasticism, man-made dogmas and the spirit of the religion dies. Only the forms, dogmas, institutions, priests remain. By the 7th century, Christianity was in the Dark Ages. It has fallen from its glory and splendour and the time was ripe for the appearance of a new Manifestation of God. Jesus had promised that the Comforter would come, the Spirit of Truth who would testify of Jesus and renew the Faith of God. This Comforter was Muhammad. Only by turning unto Muhammad and accepting Him and the Qur'an could Christian Europe have truly become a peaceful, spiritual society. Unfortunately, they did not accept Islam and history shows the results of their failure: wars, conflict, divisions, etc.

Hey, don't bother me. Can't you see I'm busy here??? I'm in the middle of causing a war in which I plan to wipe out all the natives on a yet undiscovered island!
Seriously though, mainstream Christianity has fallen from its origins. One only has to look at its "fruits" to see that.
Thank goodness for the Restoration.

Right on Elijah. Am I a plumber because I can fix my toilet and sinks? Am I an auto mechanic cause I can change my oil? No so just saying you are and going to church means nothing. Christian is nothing more than a title. Its about a relationship with the Lord. You have that and you have it all. Peace out...........

Is this a real question? I dont believe you went there. Try reading the bible dude, Jesus never never picked up a sword, even though HIS disciples wanted HIM to. We want to live in love and peace, at least I do. That is what HE commanded. There are those that call themselves Christians, but they are not. Dont lump us all together.

You shouldn't judge a religion based on the actions of a few of its members, who are extremists.
Most Muslims are very peaceful, but we associate their religion with terrorism because of 9/11.
And Jesus didn't preach violence, he preached peace. Read the bible, eh?
Is this even a serious question?

Because God told them to.
God moves in mysterious ways.
It's the Holy Spirit at work.

Remember: Just because someone call themselves a Christan, doesn't mean they are one.
