What's worse, Christianity, Judaism, or Islam?

So by your definition, good and evil are subjective, same as I view it, correct?
Depends on how you interpret subjective. Morality isn't arbitrary, but it isn't absolute. However, some morality does get developed in such a way that mimics some of the properties of convergence evolution. Two society with come up with the same solution to the same problem, so their moral codes will be remarkably similar on some issues.

I watched Egypt. As a muslim minority was installed. Much to the relief of the happy, religious. I also watched what may have been an Egyptian soldier a woman being beaten. That splashed all over the headlines. Of course all of the injured and dead for their cause took a back seat. The majority of Egyptians are pissed off course. As you try to corral the rest of the world into believing that Egypt has a muslim majority.
Artimus, with respect, that's not what happened. The same military figures who served under Mubarak still rule, the voting is still taking place. This was an act of the leftovers from the Mubarak Regime, not the Muslim Brotherhood.

Well I guess Iraq is having troubles. I love the daily bullshit brought to attention. If they were really fucking telling the truth. The Iraqi people have attacked just about every day in one way or another.
Most religions are batshit crazy at the outset. THey need that to grow rapidly like a startup.
They need time to simmer down once they attain some critical mass.
Islam is 700 years newer than the other two. Maybe in 2710 we can see whether over time all religions tend to moderation

Let the various factions of Islam kill each other until they are exhausted from all the violence and destruction. It worked for Christian Europe in the 1600s.

I'm no religious scholar - all I can say is that I'm no fan of either! If I had to venture a guess, I'd say Islam, but then I'm pretty biased!
I'd also guess that between Judaism and Christianity, Judaism is perhaps worse - it's a wild guess based upon the fact that the teachings of Jesus are pretty reasonable additions to what came before. I'm pretty unsure about this though.
Just to make the topic a little more specific, let's not discuss current practices - instead, let's just talk about the religions as documented by their most holy books.
