No, as a born-Catholic and born-again-Catholic, I believe Christianity is the most loving and peaceful religion in the world.
Examples of this peaceful approach would include the Inquisition, the Crusades, the massacre of millions of Native South and North Americans... the SS (I think) had "Gott Mit Uns" ("God is on our side) on their belt buckles.....

Especially among nations with nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are the technology most antithetical to peace, goodwill, and love between nations. More important, is the saving of Souls at the highest level of Spiritual living. Religions that advocate even the slightest bit of violence missed the boat. Turn the other cheek.
Christians that were sheep have become Shepherds and have a responsibility to protect and safeguard the world.
The CIA, FBI, and NSA Should Spread Christianity Throughout the World

Some how I dont think Jesus would want spy organizations that have been involved in touture and assassinations around the world to go out and spread christianity in his name.
Jainists dont even comb their hair for fear of harming even a tiny flea.

Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age'." Matthew 28: 18-20

And you can prove that this is a direct translation of the original text of that time?
(Let alone if the individual who wrote that text did so from the direct word of an individual who possibly said the words from a non-substantiated deity)
No offence, I want to believe.. really I do but I need proof.. even slight proof would be enough to confirm god(s) exists.
More than a rumor or chinese whispers.. surely if this deity existed then now would be a good time to convince the non-believer and achieve the final goal of world peace.

CosmicScorpion, isn't Spirituality about living forever? Isn't religion at least partly about living longer on earth? Christianity has proven to be the best religion for a long life expectancy on earth. And one of the many great things about Christianity is that it more than any religion teaches and assists others in living forever. It is the best of both earth and Heaven worlds. Teaching about Eternal Life is what Christianity does best. Is there any more important issue in the history of humankind, animalkind, and plantkind?

Love is the Greatest Virtue that can lead us to the most important issue of Eternal Life. Love has its problems, however. Who, what, where, when, how, and why do you love? If you love Greatness, you are imbued in God's Infinite Greatness. If you love evil, you are attached to Satan. Love for the right reasons is the main key to God's Infinite Abode. I believe we should live all the capital, cardinal, and supernatural virtues so that we can live in God's Eternal Home of Heaven. As we are still alive, love has already been granted to us, so our objective should be Eternal Life with all the virtues emanating from our souls.
