A quick history lesson here Mustainez. Christians (or christ for that matter) didnt exist during the times of the old testament. The "old testament" is a religious history of the Jewish people before the birth of Christ. Therefore the bloodbaths of the old testament are not "christian" bloodbaths. The new testament on the other hand is the history of Christ and his followers.
Your understandable enthusiasm of your beliefs is to be commended however it needs to be accompanied by a keen knowledge of the side you disagree with if you wish to be an effective debater. In other words, study the "other side" as well as the things you believe. This way you will be that much more convinced of your own beliefs as well that much more able to defend them from those who oppose your beliefs. I dont mean to be critical here, just a friendly bit of advice as you pursue your education
