Why don't we all just stop? Why don't we forget the past? Why not forgive our enemies now? Forget who's 'right' and who's 'wrong'? We're all wrong for fighting. Forget who 'started it'. We all know our respective makers detest war, yet we continue to fight. Those of us who kill unjustly will be punished by our maker. Only the maker can judge us. Please stop now. Our children will thank us.

Sadly, it won't stop until religion destroys us all.

All the poor people should be happy being poor, all the greedy should suddenly decide they have enough, all the landless should kill themseleves rather than fight for somewhere to live, the opressed should be thankful for their misery.
WARS ARE CAUSED BY GREED AND THE LOVE OF MONEY. In some cases religious differences are a good excuse for maing wars to get more money but are rarely the cause. Mant religions are pacificistic and have never been involved in wars - the largest religions are wealthy and thus are greedy and want more money power and lands.

If it wasn't Religion, it'd be something else. Humankind needs some excuse to take pot shots at each other because, sadly, It's our nature to be supremacist. Although at ground level People are generally Good it's the Nationalistic Militaristic Zionistic etc propaganda that we are treated to as a whole that gives us, like it or not, a blood lust. As long as their are differences of opinion there will always be friction, bad but impossible to avoid. However, some people/groups can handle differences better than others, that's why there is always hope.

I agree that we would desire to continuously no longer be scuffling with eachother and somewhat loving. yet that doesnt mean we would desire to settle for one anothers ideals. If i've got confidence the sky is eco-friendly and you have confidence it to be orange does that mean we would desire to continuously compromise and call it yellow? reason is for coming to conclusions. The sign of a extra mature strategies is one that's opinion has narrowed, no longer broadened. It exhibits the strategies has separated the wheat from the weeds, and has shed defective comments. in case you have confidence that certainty can't be generic then you rather will settle for anyones opinion as valid. yet whilst certainty is an absolute then there is purely one opinion that concerns, certainty. And that's what would desire to be chanced on. Any conventional concept that has no longer handed with the aid of extreme scrutiny and thinking is to no longer be relied on. for this reason, debate (in a loving way) isn't only proper yet is needed in the strategies-set of discovery. so which you think of you're God? I disagree. :-)

If you read the bible, that's what the bible reveals. It explains that all the religions were going to be in conflict with each other, nation against nation until the end was coming. This will still continue until Jehovah's armagedon comes and the new order or day of judgement is established. I hope you understood this concept.

Stop believing in myths, superstitions, ancient texts designed specifically to promote an angry nationalism, such as The Torah, Bible and Koran, and you'll find a marked decrease in wars.

dont be so naive .
all social ,cultural and religious differences,have been created so that there can be wars ,hate is invented and created ,that is why there is so much around ,it is fed by propaganda .
this is the strategy of divide and rule .and is as old as the tower of babel .
this way the leaders can control their populations and make money on the wars.

In the Bible it says all this will take place in the last days... we are just failing to see what is really goin on around us.
The end is coming and no one wants to believe it.... he will come like a theif in the night
I just pray we are all ready
