As soon as you show me exactly which "Christian teaching" says that I can comment accurately on it.
but as it stands right now, I've never read anything in the Bible that says "false religion will involve itself in war and politics."
so my answer to you is you have been misled.
Can you give us a scripture reference?

You are assuming that Christianity is a false religion.
Also, where does it say that a believer should not involve themselves in politics? (I'm sure many people would love to take the vote from Christians as well as many other things).
The verses that you are referring to mention that in the "End Times", there will be a world-wide religion and this religion will be controlled by the Antichrist and and the False Prophet.
See the 13th chapter of the Book of Revelation

Separation of Church and state is not biblical....it is a man made premise here in the United States.....it is said that a false prophet will come seeming to bring peace but will actually have alternative motives.
A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing if it is not cared for and grown.

But if Christianity involves itself in war and politics, like it has, does that make it a false religion too?

It depends if you're religious figure like a priest or something you shudnt involve yourself in politics. However if your an ordinary believer if you stand for elections and only let normal moral and good human common sense decide your politics and nit religion then its OK

My Christian teachings do not say that. My Christian teachings say that" we are to obey the laws of our government, because we have the government we deserve". Jesus said "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's and to God the things which are God's. Meaning if we make money in our country and it requires taxes we are to pay our taxes. This has nothing to do with your misguided idea about Christians. So you are wrong and you know what they say about assume, break it down and it makes an a s s of u & me.

Perhaps it neccessarily doesn't make them non Christians. Jesus himself said many will be blinded by the truth unable to see as if they hada veil over there eyes. I do not vote because it is commanded in the Bible to not be concerned about things of this world because satan the devil rules this world and he only has a short time left. He wants to cause disorder and take as many people with him when he goes. Many things are predetermined and to think you can change God's will by voting or concerning yourself with politics,I believe is a waste of your time. Worry only about Loving the Lord and loving your neighbor and forgiving everyone. You have to forgive in order to be forgiven. So I think many "Christians" are blinded or confused in certain areas.

Being a Christian for 40 years, I hafta agree with you on this.
All religions take their "Bible" and spin it for their need for the day.
Xtian: We need to fight a war
Answer: Let's pull versus out of the Old Testament about King
David
Xtian: We need to justify slavery
Answer: Let's pull versus out of Old Testament about Noah's "dark" child
It has been done over & over again for every religion. It will never
stop.

Speaking of his followers, Jesus said: “I have given your word to them, but the world has hated them, because they are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world. I request you, not to take them out of the world, but to watch over them because of the wicked one. They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.”—John 17:14-16.
When Jesus was on trial before Pontius Pilate, he said: “My kingdom is no part of this world. If my kingdom were part of this world, my attendants would have fought that I should not be delivered up to the Jews. But, as it is, my kingdom is not from this source.” (John 18:36)
One day soon, that heavenly Kingdom will be the only ruling power over mankind. (Daniel 2:44) At a certain point, even secular rulers will be forced to acknowledge its authority.—Psalm 2:6-12.
With all that in mind, true Christians today are subjects of God’s Kingdom, and they follow Jesus’ counsel to ‘keep on seeking first the kingdom and God’s righteousness.’ (Matthew 6:33) That does not make them disloyal to the country in which they live, but it does make them spiritually separate from the world. The prime task of Christians today, as in the first century, is ‘to bear thorough witness concerning the kingdom of God.’ (Acts 28:23)

Islam itself is a civilization That one has to stay. The Muslim is individual who devotes all his existence to Allah And submits to Him With all his deeds. Islam is submission to Allah. I say.. being a Muslim is a superb situation Islam is a superb faith. How do all of us understand Islam is the certainty? it relatively is the only faith that: a million- carry Allah as One, unique, and suitable. 2- A lonly worship of Allah, no longer Jesus, no longer an idol, and not an angel basically Allah. 3- The Quran does no longer contain contradictions. 4- The Quran includes medical info, that are 1300 years forward of their time. The Quran on an analogous time as revealed 1400 years in the past includes medical info, that are basically now being chanced on. it relatively is not in contradiction to technological expertise. 5- Allah stressful circumstances the worldwide to supply the like of the Quran. And He says they gained't be waiting to. 6- Prophet Mohammed replaced into the main influential guy in historic past. Even a non-Muslim wrote a e book called the one hundred maximum influential adult men in historic past, and Prophet Mohammed replaced into #a million. Prophet Jesus replaced into #3. be conscious even Prophet Jesus replaced right into a prophet sent via Allah. might Allah enable a pretend prophet to be the form of fulfillment? No. Even the Bible says this in Deuteronomy 18:19. A fake prophet might die!!! yet Prophet Mohammed did no longer die until eventually he thoroughly conveyed, and taught Allah's faith. 7- He had many prophecies, and all of his prophecies have come genuine, or are nevertheless coming genuine. maximum severely is that this: Allah created us, and all of us understand that we ought to continually basically worship Him. this is an intuition Allah has created us with. He did no longer basically leave us, particularly He sent prophets for us. those prophets had miracles as info. The miracle for us immediately is the Quran. there is not any different faith that worships basically Allah, and believes in Him as completely suitable, and believes in all of His prophets, and scriptures.
