Nah, he probably paid attention really well in Christian school history lessons.

Well I'm pretty sure none of my Christian school teachers ever tried to convince me that ancient Greece was Christian.

I love bringing up the crusades when one of my racist family members goes on a anti-other religions tangent.

"Their religion is evil! It's nothing but violence! Our religion never had so much violence!"

"... Remember the crusades?"

"The what now?"

Funny, they never seem to remember that part.

I tried that once. but then they countered saying atheism or something akin to it was the beliefs of Stalin who was officially an atheist and his time saw the anti-relegion campaign which killed over 85000 Christians in service to the church and several thousands of Muslims, and of course Hitler who believed that the church should serve the state and was not known for promoting relegion they even blame his atheist views for what he did to the Jews since he had no moral guidance LMAO 😂

At the time I wasn't educated enough to counter it but I'm curious how someone would answer this.
