Largest body counts as a percentage of the population? Surely God holds that record, what with smiting everyone but Noah?

- toasterlovin 8y agoI prefer to stick with historical (as opposed to mythical) facts.
- willvarfar 8y agoYou edited your reply ;). Replying to the first edit, You mean that The Flood took longer to kill everyone who wasn't on The Ark? And to your second edits meaning: I also like to stick to facts, but I was replying to Christians claiming that non-godly people are more evil than godly people by pointing out how nasty they believe God to be. Estimates of how many citizens were killed in the Soviet Union vary and depend on how you count and what you count https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_deaths_in_the_Soviet_Union_under_Joseph_Stalin https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_deaths_in_the_Sovi... 2-6m seems a bad enough number for Internet arguments. Ww2 killed 60-80m and that was caused by Hitler who was Catholic (although he didn't kill in the name of religion). Of course other things God supposedly created have killed far more, such as Spanish Flu which killed 500m and The Black Death which killed 30-60% of everyone in Europe.
- toasterlovin 8y ago> You edited your reply ;) Guilty as charged! The conversation was generally about what people do in the name of religion. What god has supposedly done is not really relevant to that...
