Query: Is that because Christians misunderstood the "new rules" for the first 1000+ years after Christ and suddenly got it, or because the revolution in secular thought had a tempering effect on the extreme cruelties of Judeo-Christian culture?
(Give it a while guys, this is a tough question for Christians...)
Not only that, but other heinous punishments such as being burned at the stake.
Nevertheless, continue to harp on 16th Century Christianity while waiting for Muslims to get enlightened.
