Atrocities - an extremely wicked or cruel act, typically one involving physical violence or injury. Yes, Christians committed atrocities in America in the modern era. In America - The Catholic Church (Boston Archdiocese) knowingly allowed pedophile priests to sexual abuse children and do nothing to stop it, but did everything to cover it up. Taking Atrocities as a cruel act that does not include physical violence I will point to the Westborough Baptist Church, google it if you live in a hole. Christians also committed atrocities around the world through there missionaries - Matthew Durham, 19, allegedly confessed to sexually assaulting several children at an orphanage in Kenya, police said. Christianity is such a large group of religions - Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, Non-denominational, Lutherans and on and on, and there has been no great schism to unit the followers of Jesus to one faith. If you are asking for the atrocities that have been supported by the leadership of the Christian faiths then, no there are none because that hypocrisy is too obvious. Similarly the Islamic faith has not committed atrocities as a whole, it (Islam) preaches love, tolerance, but less then human people have used religion (Islam) to recruit people and convince them to commit atrocities. As did the Knights Templar before there destruction by the Pope (who was threatened by KT). 1

Here is a spring 2016 report on all hate in the US. https://www.splcenter.org/sites/default/ Also we could discuss the Westboro Baptist Church's disruptive tyranny based on their own Christian beliefs. 1
