With no religion would there be no war?

Answer 1

Well, there would be a lot less of it, agreed. . .

People will still fight over inequalities of wealth and power. So there could still be wars about that.

Answer 2

Actually there would probaly be a lot more war.

You need to look a little bit deeper at the real causes of war.
No relgious philosophy or organisation has the intention to create war. Quite the opposite if you look closely.
"Love thy neighbor " is not just a Christian concept it exists in most religions.


Consider this:

A society is capable of surviving for thousands of years unless it is attacked from within or without by hostile forces. where such an attack occurs, the primary targets are it's religious and national gods and heroes,it's potential of leadership and the self respect and integrity of it's members.
If you look around you , you will find countless examples of these points. They scream at us every day from the newspapers and TV.
Probably the most critical point of attack on a culture is it's religious experience. Where one can destroy or undermine religious institutions then the entire fabiric of the society can be quickly subverted or brought to ruin.
For the last hundred years or so religion has been beset with relentless attack. You have been told it’s the “opiate of the masses “, that it’s unscientific, that it is primitive, in short , that it is a delusion.
The source of this kind of attack is always covert and hidden. It is promoted by a few who have a vested interest in a slave society.
Unfortunately these few rely on creating fear and insecurity in others
to forward and promote their enemy propaganda. These others feel correctly they have to defend themselves from an attack, but because the real enemy is hidden, they can be manipulated to attack what they really should be defending as they cannot see the real enemy.

The key here is that underneath all these attacks on organised religion there is one fundemental target:
The spirituality of man, your own basic spiritual nature, self respect and peace of mind.

Answer 3

No man.Dont think like that.But I agree with u that religion is one the the important reason for war and if religion is single then there will be a reduce in the number of wars and riots.

Answer 4

People would fight over other things, though take a look at history and most wars in the past 100 years are political.

Answer 5

That statement is completely untrue. religion is one of the factors that prevent more war occuring. without religion, there would still be wars on property, honour, for food.
Man was made with the desire to make himself safe, and war is another way of doing it.

Answer 6

there would still be war. War is based on two things, money and land. since these two have nothing to do with religion (i hope), there would still be war. God bless u

Answer 7

Yes, there would be war. Less of it, and for good reasons. It would not be about imaginary friends, but about resources, etc. But then without religion to divide us, we could unify, and not need to compete.

Answer 8

There would still be war. It would just be about the right to land, or to speak a certain language. Or whether or not the national color should be pink.

Answer 9

Oh no. There will always be war. As log as there are people left to covet something that someone else has, there will be fighting.

Answer 10

no. Trust me, people would find a reason to start a war. That's just how we are.
