Hehe...yeah. Your angle is so very original as well. How terribly hip, an atheist who denegrates faith and wants to use wars in the name of bad theology to indict an entire religion.

Looking through history I find that Gods fan club has done an exuberant amount of damage to others that didn’t share their beliefs. Yet you stand and says it was Satans hand at work…..what a handy scapegoat you have there. We kill in the name of the invisible man….and blame it on the the other invisible man. How cute.
Take another look at history and you might also find that "God's fan club" has done much more to benefit society. Francis of Assissi, Thomas Jefferson, Ghandi, Mother Theresa, Dr. Martin Luther King, John Wesley, Abraham Lincoln...

There are even more members of "God's fan club" whose names you wouldn't recognise but who dedicate their lives to making the world a better place. They feed the hungry, care for the sick, fight against social injustice, each following a call their faith brought to light.

Have you counted the number of "God's fan club" who consider themselves pacifists because of their faith? The number of people of faith who have protested war and the use of violence?

It seems you are willing to use vast generalizations based on a mistaken understanding of Christian theology to condemn "God's fan club." How "cute" indeed.
