Your *guess* is pretty far off the mark, there Ray. The atheists of Czarist Russia murdered an estimated 20-30 million people in the last century. The nazi's of WW2 Germany murdered some 6 million. Do you have any figures for those killed in the several Islamic wars, the Spanish Inquisition, or perhaps the Irish conflicts of recent history? I do not have a cite, but recall the numbers in the hundreds and the thousands, not the millions... Try again. del X's 'n ' 's 'n i's 4 rpleyes
