I didn't read half of this. Read Old Testament if you wanna get your facts straight.
Take a look at the Great Leaders they all belong to christian movement.
Dear Mika.
I have read the old testament, and studied it.
Did you? I guess not.
Anyway, it says nothing about why men should kill. If anything - it says killing is a sin. Can you pinpoint me to some ideas in the old testament that says differently?
Im waiting for your reply...

It does say something about why men should kill, in many places. Example:
Deuteronomy:
13:12 If it should come to your attention25 in one of your cities that the Lord your God is giving you as a place to live26 that 13:13 some evil people27 have departed from among you to entice28 the inhabitants of their cities,29 saying, ?Let?s go and serve other gods whom you have not known before,? 13:14 you must investigate thoroughly30 and inquire carefully. If it is true and certain that this abomination is being done among you,31 13:15 you must by all means slaughter the inhabitants of that city with the sword; put under the divine curse32everyone in it, even the livestock, by the sword. 13:16 You must collect all of its spoil into the middle of the plaza33 and burn the city34 and all its spoil as a whole burnt offering to the Lord your God. It will be an abandoned ruin35 forever?it must never be rebuilt again. 13:17 You must not take for yourself anything of that which has been cursed,36 so that the Lord might relent37 of his intense wrath and show you compassion, that he might have mercy on you and multiply you as he promised your ancestors. 13:18 Thus you must obey the voice of the Lord your God, keeping all his commandments that I am presenting38 you today and doing the thing that is right39 before him.40
"you must by all means slaughter the inhabitants of that city with the sword" - how is that not killing?
