"More people have been killed in the name of God than all wars combined"

There's some overlap there. Atheistic communism killed 100 million, give or take, in the last hundred years.

Recently back from Munich, East Berlin, they still seem sensitive.

I'm not surprised. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_and_expulsion_of_Germans_(1944-1950)#Human_losses

Estimates of total deaths of German civilians in the flight and expulsions, including forced labour of Germans in the Soviet Union, range from 500,000 to a maximum of 3 million people.[209] Although the German government's official estimate of deaths has stood at 2 million since the 1960s, the publication in 1987–89 of previously classified West German studies has led some historians to the conclusion that the actual number was much lower—in the range of 500,000–600,000. English-language sources have put the death toll at 2–3 million based on West German government figures from the 1960s.
