Yeah, there are an incredible number of factors which makes any claims about them being perfectly equal unlikely.

You're being too literal. Read 'exactly same bloodshed' as 'making ppl just as dead in horrendously large numbers'

I was referring to the initial claim that started this that they're the same in over all intrinsic harmfulness.

OK, well perhaps pick a diff word for 'what its actually done' then.I think that's central but maybe 'intrinsic' not right word

Overall harmfulness when harm measured in violence & oppression. Both have been willing to kill & dictate how ppl live & think

Yeah, I don't dispute this but these are caused by dogma in general too. I think we have to look at the deeper traits.

The scripture may be a wash unless we include hadith (which many don't) but the historical examples of prophets is significant.

You cld do some kind of analysis in which you compare bible & magisteria with Quran & ahadith to determine which more violent.

I think the hadith wins by a landslide but they're hard to compare in likely harmfulness.

But you'd need to look at how much focus there has been in Christianity on old testament warlords carrying out God's commands.
