Christianity is a terribly warlike religion. Forget what Christians did to non-Christians in their crusading wars of imperialism. Just look at what they did to each other!
1) The European Wars of Religion which included the Thirty Years War amongst many others
2) The American Civil War when they were all English-speaking, Christian and Protestant too!
3) WW1
4) WW2
It is not surprising that they would feel a little guilty and uneasy about their white privilege AKA imperial privilege which they don't like to talk about, which they no longer even learn about as schoolchildren. Presumably, it is because a largely atheist population will not suffer to learn about the immensely complex doctrinal and political reasons which caused the Wars of the Reformation and the break up of the Holy Roman Empire, which was a kind of Christian Caliphate.
If Europe had been Muslim, there would have been no need for the Wars of the Reformation. If Europe had already been Muslim and following Islamic rules of warfare, there would have been no WW1, let alone its continuation which was WW2, both framed as the Second Thirty Years War.
