A doctor should heal. There might be bad people who are doctors but creating more doctors is not guaranteed to create bad people. Christianity promotes good values.
You can argue that it does, but the people who have done monstrous wrongs have also done monstrous things in the name of Christiandom. That Christianity promotes it. That those monstrous things they did were 'good values' anyway.
You misunderstand. A good ideology defines good and has the power to inspire people to do good. Blood might be spilled in its name when fighting to save lives and retake stolen land from thieving mass murderers whose ideology is "touch kids spread fear bomb cars be islamic". Some terrible people might claim to like a nice ideology when disregarding its teachings and trying to look above suspicion while doing evil deeds. But a religion that says "do good or else" is better than a cult that says "aid our evil and bow to us or else".
That doesn't explain the behavior of the Spanish and Portuguese in both Americas and Africa. I'm not letting Islam off the hook, just because Christians did something bad. I'm saying Christians need to accept when things are done wrong, and control their flock. It's why I have zero expectations of the Catholics stopping Liberation Theology becoming the norm of Catholicism.
