There is no Christian denomination that does not have bloody hands. And, yes, I say that as an Episcopalian by choice.

I am finding that out during my research of Antisemitism in the late years of the Russian Empire. But yeah as a “cultural Catholic”, I agree it seems that every demonation has some blood on their hands. Even the Quakers don’t seem to be blameless since there were actually some Quaker sects in the second KKK and many Quakers in Pennsylvania were none too tolerate of the Catholic immigrants moving in to their state in the 1800’s. Seems the tragedy is a persecuted person can end up doing the persecution later. And that’s very true in the British Isles especially. I mean look at Cromwell, I hate the guy being part Irish Catholic but it is true that his religion was persecuted and what does he end up doing, he ends up being the worst persecutor of Catholics.
