RE: Question of the Day - Which is Worse, Chopping Heads for Religion or For Revolution? [QOD][life]
I agree that killing for religion is based on "faith" or the lack of it, but then again so is a revolution. Although when revolting, the oppressed are removing the source of that oppression, but yet that action is ultimately based on an idea or belief that life will be better after the revolution. So in the end it seems that both actions are based on faith or belief (or the lack of that faith or belief).
I don't believe that both are based on the same kind of faith, for not only the belief that life would be better after revolution doesn't necessarily incur killing. Moreover killing in religion is more of punishment and revenge even if a better life later doesn't require killing.
