You shall judge them by their fruits.

It's clearly not the Hindus or the Mosselmen.
So the fruit of Christianity has never been slavery, torture, murder, hypocrisy (THE POPE HAD KIDS!), etc.?

Do you know anything about human history at all?

Yes!!! Do you know anything about the history of the Jews? The entire race was nearly wiped off the face of the planet, multiple times (pre-Holocaust).

And you know what? So were literally thousands of other religious/ethnographic groups at the time! But we never hear about them because the Jews were the lucky ones that happened to survive when those other ones (that no one knows/cares about now) didn't.

There's even a term for this failure in logical thinking: survivorship bias. Both Juidaism and Christianity survived, when hundreds of other groups didn't, but you don't hear about those groups so you make incorrect assumptions about the survivors.
