back to the 20th centruy thing, not to do with religion, also look at bullying in schools whn you observe the behaviour you will relaise that conflict is associated with traits like pride, jealousy, denial and greed (to name a few). We shouldnt blame religion for human nature. if you take religion out do you think people will stop engaging in confilct, i do not think so. faith teaches patience, teached to love ones family and neighbour, what ideology atheism or secularism teaches love, athiesm promotes greed as it describes the world as the only place so to fulfil our needs we will do whatever we want, mr dawkins has an interesting apporach personally he needs to stop labelling others and actually complete his research instead of explaining issues to the world in half.

And how many murders were justified with the words "because God is on our side"

I undertand what U mean, but in this you have your radical extremist that thinks their religion will be the only one some day.

in general though i think it does not, its mainly because people get to 'extreme' into things

gilbert is right here. You do not hear about peacful people killing in the name of God, it is ridiculous!! I think we should kill them!!LOLOLOL Easy just kidding!!
Quoting: gilbert
when you have faith you have something strict that governs your life - other wise you just blow like the wind.. whatever is around follow that

Again well said Gilbert, Christianity is about restraint, not persecution, it is about grace, not retubution, and love not hate.
Jesus never killed anyone.. and wasn't it he who said, "pick up your cross and follow me??"

Was Jesus the perfect example of how Christianity is to be lived!
