the back of wishful christian cereal boxes? Also is really fair to count people who die of starvation when God could have easily rained down mana to prevent it?

Great point. When making accusations about the "alleged" crimes of atheists, Christians always like to single out the millions of people that died of starvation in the Soviet Union during a great famine that occurred under Stalin's rule.
It's really had to see how this can be blamed on "atheism". In fact it can't really be blamed on anything other than a mismanagement of resources and uncooperative weather conditions.
One can only guess that God didn't rain manna because he wanted to punish Stalin by killing innocent millions of his people, much in the same way that God punished Pharaoh for killing hundreds of thousands of innocent Egyptians.

Never defile religion by mentioning facts. Next thing you know, that kind of perversion can lead you to start trying rational thinking and what chance would religion have then! Repent before it's too late - otherwise you will be cast out of delusion and into reality. You have been warned!

You would like to think that only Christians are responsible for death and hardship, but since this is not true you regress and change your argument. I am at least willing to say that Christians have done evil thing, but these things were not done according to the teaching of Christ. If you wish to believe so, you may, but you prove yourself foolish to do so.

It doesn't matter in the end who kills more - is that a very thankful exercise for either side or anyone? Killing is killing, whoever does it.
It isn't going to win any debates.
Move on. Let it go.

Psst, your sarcasm is dripping. You should see a doctor about that, it can eat away at the lining of your heart and cause death. Really, studies show it to be true.
