Of course not - unless I missed the post where that was made the case.

So is the Bible and Christianity likewise to blame for the Crusades, the Inquisition, and the "Witch"-burnings?

Re: The purpose of this thread bugs me
I agree, it's not the Bible that caused those things. It was religious zealots and fanatics. Likewise with today's Muslim Zealots.
