For just one example of many, Christians do not impale people on sticks.

Check out Vlad the Impaler.

I rest my case if you have to reach back to the fifteenth century to find one.

You need only find a recent YouTube video to find moslims doing it. No, I don’t have the link, and I’m sorry I watched it and do not recommend anyone’s watching it.

What leads you to believe that Vlad the Impaler was a follower of Christ?

Matthew 7
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

John 8
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

A sincere follower of Christ would be just like his master; Jesus was no murderer.
