I challenge you to find examples of a long-term religiously motivated conflict that has fallen in the favor of a minority group of Christians. I'm looking for some real, verifiable history and not a quote from the inaccurately translated KJV Bible.
It does you no favors, and by your own call for politeness, no credit, to criticize KJV1611, which is the Word of God. No one here at Landover is in the slightest interested in your (or indeed others') opinion of the quality of the translation of KJV1611. The matter has been long since discussed to our entire satisfaction and if you think that some supercilious, fatuous and arrogant comment such as you made would alter anything one jot or tittle, you are completely in error.
Nevertheless, minority Christian successful conflict: The whole of the continent of America, North and South: Animists defeated by Christians at the behest of (a) The Pope and (b) later a country settled initially by Christians i.e. British Colonists who became Americans.
Australia and New Zealand: Countries of animists colonized by Christians at the behest of the reigning Monarch, who is also the Head of the Church of England.
as above, the rest of the British Empire.
Ireland - animists and papists defeated by Protestants (who are far closer to Landover's beliefs)
And before you start bleating, yes, the British Empire was founded on Christian principles by Christians, for Christians - there is more than ample proof for this in the writings of the time.
In all cases, the invaders were of fewer than the native non-Christian populations at the start of the conflict.
Please bear in mind that we at Landover would not call any other sect True Christian, but as you have no cares about such niceties, I'm sure you will grant this.
As a matter of importance however, this thread would be better placed in a thread of its own, as this forum is about guns - not conquest.

“We must reassert that the essence of Christianity is the love of obedience to God’s Laws and that how that complete obedience is used or implemented does not concern us.”
