itsallme112: Religion is not responsible for conflicts. People with malice in their hearts are the cause. Religion is often used by these people as a mask to hide their true intentions.

Religion is responsible! All blood has been shed in the name of God, no matter whose.

No, religion is more often used as an excuse for war, BUT religions have frequently taken advantage of and benefited from those wars. That's not to say genuine religious intolerance hasn't caused death and misery but in the majority of wars religion is simply an excuse.
bohdiprana: Religion is a tool that man made, and man uses. Guns don't kill people, people kill people and they make the guns and religions to do it.
Absolutely, I believe the inventor of the Kalashnikov was once asked "Do you have problems sleeping at night knowing how many people the gun you designed has killed?" His response "My gun doesn't kill people, the person who pulls the trigger is the killer" (or something similar)
gopi59: So should we all not give up religion and become spiritual instead?
C'mon, be real Religion is the cause? I've never seen Religion pick up a weapon and kill someone. What I HAVE seen though is PEOPLE who pick up a weapon and kill other people. How can a Thing do anything by itself? To follow your crooked thinking, I'll say then that Politics or Nationalism or Defense are causes of most of the conflicts... Doesn't make sense. It doesn't matter what umbrella an individual finds himself under, it's his/her character that determines his choices, not some idea or ideal. We've been fed that lie for too long

Yes it is because deep down there, they all know that religion is a manipulaion of the Authorities. So, who the hell is in charge? How should the folk be thinking in order to be better domesticated?
