One of the worst afflictions a human being can have and it's not just the Shiites and the Sunnis that have it. It is self-righteousness.

Actually it is not. They were peacefully living side by side until the US invaded Iraq (in Iraq). Then the US kindled up this enemity (which had been below the surface) to "divide and rule". Seems to have worked. Now the stupidos kill each other, rather than the amricanos.
The Shiites also hold another caliph in addition to Mohommod, dear and still practice pagan rites. This angers the Sunnis though I can't see why.

Ignorance. Sunnis and Shias both have their own set of stories which try to prove that that other one is following the wrong version. The Sunnis have their own hadith books and Shias have their own version of hadiths which mostly are fabricated. Hadiths in simple words is very similar to Talmud and Sunni version were writen 150 years after death of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Shias version of hadiths took 500 years after the death. The question which must come to you mind now will be who is right. Both Sunnis and Shias are wrong. God strictly commanded us not to break religion into sects. God call us Muslims or Muslimeen (one who submit to the will of God) but they are happy with what they are holding and call themselves Sunnis and Shias.

have you heard about the battle of karbala? sunna means tradition and shia muslims made war with sunnis and ali the founder of shia was murdered by husein who was a sunni. so they hate eachother
by the way i was a muslim who left islam and fled to the west because islam to me sounded nothing but an ideology which was disgusting

o god i agree and i am a muslim. it is rediculous. they fight over who is the sucessor after the holy prophet peace be upon him. there is a difference in the prayor motions as well. i wish the muslims world wide will quit it and unite. but it is the same with the jews fighting jews different sects there and the christians fighting christians. people are truly ignorant.

No they don't hate each other. You are absolutly wrong. A few of them got brainwashed by either sect into hating each other and thats it.
