Because those who are self-righteous think that they have to somehow defend their God, not realizing that God never asked them to defend him/her. Also, we are human...very imperfect, very flawed. I think many hide behind religion as reason to hate b/c hate all by itself has no power.

I think you have asked about the war in the name of the religion. It's only a propaganda, the real reason would be the war for resources, the oil and water, and for the domination area. The most powerful control the world.

Religious fanaticism is an instinct to each person making conflicts among different religions particularly when it comes to culture, life style and beliefs.

I think you mean religion. We are arguing about ideas. Some of us are ruled by ideas, in fact most of us are. We will never agree on these ideas because we all want to rule the world and none of us can

I think a simple answer to that would be it has nothing to with religion vs religion but it is a fight with ourselfs with others.it has to do with indivisual perceptions.He are a few parameters perceptions that firstly make up people.Let me speculate for 'people' in 'i' perspective.
1) I love what i have.
2) I have lived with what i have.
3) i don't need anything
4) There is nothing for me to know anything further because whatever i have is the complete picture of truth and nothing else could counter fit that.
5) I know the ways and means of life. I have seen life enough for no one else is going to tell me that it could also be otherwise.
6) What you say is right but it threatens my pride, disregards me and my knowledge, my intelligence, my self image, my confidence in me.So i will not acept what you have to offer even if you are right.By acepting what you say it will shatter my image of being an angel in my own eyes and it will make me feel stupid, hurt and i will know that i am wrong so therfore it will mean that i do not have anything worthfull in me.And the very idea that he/she is right then me is something definately i don't acept.
7) My self image is what i have and keeping it same keeps me happy and content weither it makes other unhappy or not.By you being like my image you will be happy too.
8) What you have to offer to teach me is not the right way.My way is the only way to things and wheather i do not know that how and why it is a right way i still strongly feel that it is the right way.It has been taught to me by my forefathers. who are you to question it.I don't care that i don't know the hows and the whys it is the right way this way or that.
9) if i acept what i don't know what exactly i am acepting because i fully don't understand i don't want to miss out or give up on what i have.Who knows what if i take what you have and it does not work out for me.
10) i have to have to protect what i have. i cant risk it being contaminate even it is good or bad. i like things as they are. I hate change. i dont want to spend my time with change. it to hard and difficult.i heard they say changes are for good but that just a hallmark card line.
These i guess are the few root qualities that why we fight over for anything. these things not only have to do with religions but with also lot of others things to. May be why you fight with your brother/sister., father /mother. friends, nieghbours. comunities. cities, states goverments, countries, races.planets.aliens races.universe.The list could go on and on.
Anyway back to the point on religion the best solution for this is that you find a way to god directly not through any mediums.Not that there is anything wrong.but it becomes wrong when you do not understand that mediums are way for you to connect to god. not the way of god. Example. I am a christian. I was always told to go church and importance to attend but to tell you the truth i am too lazy to get up on a sunday morning and go to church.So i once prayed to god and told him this honestly. I asked him that is really that important for me to go to church. As i understand through what ever i read from the bible that you want me to first connect to you. So i asked him if he could bend some rules. i told him that i will try to pratise everything a much as i can and follow everything to the word. In exchange is also want him to help me learn. within a few days of my prayers and not attending churches i found this new light of faith love and knowledge within me that till this day i could never get from goin to a church. lot of changes took place with me. i became patient. i becaming more loving. i was more happy and content. as this "knowledge" came to me in from of examples from other bible, other religion, people ,self dicovery so on and so forth. it changed my life. i was more torlerant.my life changed wonderfully.I am programmer.Believe this or not my level of writing a software sky rocketed.basicly everything about me had a perfectly balanced setup.i could do miracles in everthing.
So i feel that if people should really first try to concentrate on the part that they have to first connect with god and what god belief are really all about.The rest is just a matter of time that a perfect balance will set in your life. so even the question accually why we fight over religion will be a a non existant one.We would be solving by ourselfs more than one questions.We would not asking how to stop wars, religious differences etc but the real answer we would really be ended with would be is how we have learnt how more of us and all of us live together in a more better way.

because we are in the habit of being at receiver end always, no giver position is attained either by practice or by inheritance.
