Answer 3

Religion gets confused with spirituality much too often. Religions are organizations founded by men under the guise of spirituality. They often (not always) evolve into venues that enslave and rob people. They are used as masquerades for individuals intent on controlling groups to do the individual will. They can be used for good and for education, but unfortunately even the religions that are intent upon these contain individuals that use them to advance themselves either economically or socially. Thus, we see war, theft, enslavement all rationalized in the name of religion. Religion can be a wonderful conduit for spirituality, but we must be ever diligent in protecting ourselves from those that abuse us in the name of religion.

Answer 4

Not all religions believe in only one deity. There are quite a few polytheists in the world.

I agree that there have been many wonderful spiritual teachers throughout history. Perhaps if more people were educated about religious views other than their own, they would be more tolerant and peaceful.

Answer 5

All religions don't believe in only one god. That is just a bunch of BS that they shove down your throat in churches.

There is so much violence between people because we, human beings, are insane. That's why. As a whole, we're just not in our right minds.

Answer 6

Not all religions believe there is one god. Violence is a result of the fallen nature of man that God explained in Genesis of the holy bible. There is only one remedy for the sinful nature: death. That came through Jesus Christ who took upon himself the sin of the world to reconcile the world to himself. Any religious leader that does not agree with the death, burial, and resurrection of the Christ is the anti-christ. What fellowship has light have with darkness?

Answer 7

All religions DON'T believe that there is one god. Some have whole pantheons. mine has two: god and goddess. Part of the problem is that some religions teach that there is only one "true" god (theirs of course). More problems come when the different gods and goddesses and their followers have conflicting interests.

Answer 8

Jews, Christians, and Muslims believe in God, as well as the anti-God...Satan (Arabic: Shitan). The one who takes advantage of our weaknesses. The one who seek the ruin of our souls. While God calls for perfection of life here on earth, the other tries to do it's darnest best to stop us from pleasing God.

Answer 9

The violent people arent following the right god.
