Oh, please. The alleged peacefulness of Christianity has never gone beyond empty claims. It has enthusiastically called for and indulged in slaughter.
Just like Christianity has always been.
Ruthlessness, intolerance, willful ignorance, aggression and brutality are intrinsic to the worldview of both religions; I see little to choose between them. By nature, both will always be a plague upon the world; an all consuming, all destroying cancer.
