Religion is marked by heinous crimes

Often many relate religion with war, from the Templars so far today, have fought battles in the name of faith, They have committed the most heinous crimes, from burning at the stake, until beheadings and torture. last of religion is marked by the horror and death.
in the past was engine of the bloody battles and this promotes hatred and rancor stigmatizing those who do not share their beliefs and classifying them in a jerargico status.
also have cheated millions of people and minds, with their lies, stealing money to build their large churches, and sustain the lifestyle of its leaders, paying for travel and buying their cars and houses

We have witnessed the greatest crimes ranging from war to terrorism

¿Have you ever been religion the cause of war?

¿Or it is simply a vehicle (incentive) to encourage the troops, divided societies, creating hatred, and despoil countries ?

In the causes of the war there are many factors at play ranging from political interests to the acquisition of natural resources including also the power, ideology, race, territory and identity

Some believe that religion is not the cause of wars, and they say that the causes of war is the use that is given to religion .
others believe that religion has played a leading role in instigating violence and conflict.

what is your opinion ?

Religion is a hangover from our historical past where we didn't have science to explain how the heavens and the world around us work. This wouldn't be a bad thing I'd it hadn't been repeatedly hijacked to suit people in power to get people to do what they want which mostly seemed too relate to violence. I wish there was less of it in the world.

Let me state though that I believe in individual freedom for all and the freedom to believe what they believe, the above is just my opinion.

couldn't have said it better myself.

I value your opinion is respectable, the Bible mentions scientific data, leaving surprised

2500 years ago he said that the earth is a circle, and hangs on nothing

1000 years ago the Bible says, that the heavens are folded and unfolded like a cloth

2000 years he refers to DNA as a book where the body parts are written

Look again at what it said about that circle in Job...

There is only one shape that yields a circular boundary between light and darkness.

Awesome!

I say yes to both of them.

I Agree both too

It is the perception of those who wage war that the Almighty wants them to do it. This is far from the truth. He wants all to repent, and live. Have life abundant. Not die due to the lies of the world. We need to come to this understanding...

If you ask me why in my heart there is no religion, I answer that I lost it the fault of the religion itself.

True religion has itself commissioned to deceive and defraud, because they use the Bible as a business

Maybe you have not thought that the problem is not religion but rather the ignorance of people to not read and study the Bible?

the Bible is a wonderful book, and there are answers to the most important questions, because it comes from God

In the Bible the ten major precepts. Suffice it to observe the first "Love thy neighbor," and the others can not read.

I think religion lends some cause of/to war. May write about it if there is interest in me doing so.
The word "religion" is from the Latin word Relagare, meaning to retard, or hold back.
Think people not having a liking of being held back.
Good points & Happy steem-ing!

I just remembered vidio ... David Christian: The history of our world in 18 minutes ....
explains a lot of things .... (This is not the My Videos) ....

)

i guess all religions are not associated with any kind of war even though
some people used religion to be their cause of war
after all I think it's a bad politics

not all have the same beliefs, but some religion and create hatred without bearing arms, psychology war used only to terrorize and create a divided society.

the Bible says otherwise, that love unites ties and creates a verdaro people serving God

Statism (the belief in a state) is the most dangerous religion.

I would say that if your religion spites wars and hate between groups of people, perhaps its not the best religion to follow. Religion, and spirituality are suppose to be peaceful, encourage love and acceptance. Any religion that is tied in with war I would think its a radicalized version of the original. Of course, every religion isn't perfect and have outdated practices but essentially the only "religion" that encourages negativity in its followers is something like satanism. idk. These are just my 2 cents.

the religion that deceives and promotes hatred, look at the example

as could someone supposedly religious discriminates against another for being of a different race?

the Bible teaches us to be peaceful and to love and respect all, it is a wonderful book that comes from God.
sometimes religions and philosophies teach part used only a small part of the Bible, not all.
