After all the murder and violent colonialism, kind of makes it a moot point, eh?

No, because the point that all the bigots are missing is that religious people are generally no different than other people. If you see a starving kid you aren't going tosit in front of them chowing down. You will, presuming you aren't on the ASPD spectrum or starving yourself, feed that kid.

Most humans did this . Most humans do this. You have to raise them to believe helping others is wrong and that enters Protestant Christianity through Calvinism.

So, by your own logic, religion is not required to help people, so why does that forgive Christianity for its holy wars and violent crusades?

No, you have just completely misinterpreted my comment a second time

Or perhaps you just refuse to notice your blind spots.

No, I know what I wrote. Im not sure why or how you could think otherwise.

We should stop here.
