I'm a Muslim......I've never run around killing people and I don't know any Muslim who has. Why to go perpetuating stereotypes.... Why don't you try asking a question with just an ounce of intelligence?

The Buddhists and Hindus do not live in religious peace. Hindutva (Hindu zealot) terrorists exist, and they have killed people, usually by instigating mobs in religious riots. I can't remember what country it was, but there was/is a country that was/is a Buddhist theocracy, and they definitely killed people.
It is true that Christianity and Islam are more prone to violence than some other religions, because they are monotheist and universal religions, but most other religions have violence problems as well.
The only religion in which you won't have religious violence would probably be Jainism, as to harm any living thing is sinful.

I know that Hindus killed thousands "if not millions" of Muslims during their migration to Pakistan.
Also there were many wars between China, Japan and Korea in the history. Aren't they Buddhists? What about the Mongols?

first of all if you go to india you will see hindus killing muslim cuz their muslim not hindu. and muslims dont kill people over religion, that is against islam. hinduism and buddhism was made by human beings no god. how can you make ur own god and worship it. but anyhow, islam is a very peaceful realigon and some people who dont follow it right make it look bad. not all muslims are the same just the way not all christians/jew etc.. are the same.

That is an interesting question, in Matt: 27/28 Jesus speaks of the Pharisees and says "They Like The Sounds of Their Own Prayers" These are the ones aligned with Beelzebub, and not with the Lord above.

Because Buddhists and Hindus are taught that killing is bad.
Christians and Muslims are taught that killing is bad...unless it's a heretic infidel.

True Christians don't kill anybody. Jesus instructed his followers to love one another and to even love their enemies. You can't do that if you go out and kill your fellowman. Those that do are not real Christians.
