None of us should kill each other regardless of what our faith is.
Mankind misuses the name and the word of God in order to give authority to his own will. It's never been any different.
Mankind doesn't listen to God and has insulted God on a daily basis.
Most Hindu's will also tell you that there is also only one God (Brahma).
The answer? Mankind is largely a nasty little species where the faithful behave as badly and as sinfully as the faithless. Let them get on with it and set yourself aside from all of them.
The oldest scripture on Earth says "Thou shalt not kill". Just 10 simple rules to obey. It really is that hard to obey......when you make absolutely no effort.
No this is not how to worship God.

Not everyone who fights worship a God. And although the God may be the same, each of those religions you mentioned has huge fundamental differences and each faction can't seem to get past the changes.
Personally I think religion is the root of all that is un-good in the world.
How many people have died in the name of their God? How many more will perish before we wake up and realize that religion isn't worth killing or being killed for?
Do people of religion really think that we can't all live in peace and harmony until all other sects adopt their way of thinking?
Probably, those people are CRAZY!

Very good question! Mankind has 7 tetracts built into us nor is anyone born without tetracts. Anash persistent stubbornness, zimmah, wicked device, ra, delight in being bad, bellyaal, worthlessness, vanity, dibbah, slander and reporting of evils and Satan to be leader, and even leader of all the other evil things. This is why people do all kinds of things. People die, living after death, and they do not surmount tetracts the minute they get into atmospherea-heaven. Spirits are not all good. There have been bad leaders in heaven wanting all the slaves possible in a heavenly kingdom..and there has been competition in this. War has been not only on earth. Any false god pretnding to be the Creator has had to work at righting his wrongs until everyone he or she has taught wrongly has surmounted the damage of being taught wrong.

Well while all of you have the same God, none of you can agree on what he should even be called, or even how you should live your day to day. So war is used to prove who is right, and they justify it by quoting war in the bible. Only Western religion and western God's are full of war. Sounds like they are just looking for a excuss to kill people.
For those stating that God is loving and not about War, then you have not read your bible lately. You should dust it off.

I would say most times, with war, it isn't a form of worship and it isn't really dealing with God- it is for other reasons- economic, pride, whatever it may be.
God has said in his word that there has been (and will be) wars and rumors of war, even since the beginning.
And we should all love each other, but it just so happens some confuse love with hate... And worship to God should be in spirit and truth. Most times, war isn't based on either of those.

The have-nots want to become the upper-class and have no better way to define, and give credence to their attempts to do so than to attach it to a religion, not necessarily their own even, so it will seem to have importance and not just some renegade attempt at becoming number one. Having a religion as a background seems to make it more creditable, or so the troublemakers think. It is an age-old concept that will not be going away for many years to come for lack of a better excuse.

God is the excuse that small people use when they've run out of excuses to justify their behavior.
In this instance, the existance or non-existence of God isn't even the issue, and that particular debate never enters into things. Instead, God (as a divine entity, or a simple abstract noun--depending on your point of view) becomes nothing more than a reason to claim vengeance on someone who offends you for some insignificant reason or another.

Because we're human. We compartmentalise, we lust, are more territorial than dogs, covet...
Religions are human creations. God as a... well, God... isn't.
But he's a brilliant excuse to grab your neighbour's ***, or wife, land. He's very unlikely to contradict you in the newspapers. And if you're manipulative enough other people will be swayed by your sales pitch. With luck no one will question your real motives. Or maybe there is the fear of seeming irreligious if they do.

God has no desire for war. His word has been taken over by man, perverted on the television and the public forum. Politicians and Military Leaders use His name to justify something that has nothing to do with Him or His Message (no matter what religion or message you are following)
