You're wrong. People have always killed one-another, even before there was a written language or books were printed. Thus, killing must be due to something else besides a book or books.

We don't kill because all religious books were written my man but because of our interpretation of the teaching in the books.

How the Word of God came to be written
OLD TESTAMENT
The authors of Hebrew Scriptures are not as identifiable as those of the New Testament. The Books arose in the midst of the law given by Moses and the prophets sent by God to the children of Israel. The first 5 books (The Law) were written by Moses almost entirely. The remainder of the Old Testament is composed of the prophets and writings in the Hebrew canon, whereas the English Bible includes the following categories: historical books, poetic books, and prophetic books. These books include such authors as Samuel, David, Joshua, Solomon, and the Major Prophets such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, and a number of lesser-known figures who wrote smaller books called the Minor Prophets. Each of these authors presents his words as being the Word Of God.

NEW TESTAMENT
The New Testament was written by apostles of Jesus Christ and companions of the Apostles, Letters were written to individuals, churches, or larger groups of persons either to conform the truth of Christianity, engender belief in Christ, Correct problems in the local churches, or argue against error. The Book of Revelation also seeks tp present God’s plan for the end of the age.

HOW THE INSPIRED WRITTINGS WERE PASSED DOWN
OLD TESTAMENT
The Old Testament was written between 1440 B.C. and approximately 400 B.C.
The Laws of Moses was maintained in the Hebrew community by the priests of the temple. Later books continued to be deposited with these leaders until the destruction of the temple and then found their way into the teaching community begun by Ezra and continued in the synagogues. Trained scribes copied biblical texts by hand until the modern printing press came into use. The copies of the Masoretes of the ninth century A.D. are very close to the recently discovered Dead Sea scrolls, which originated a thousand years earlier.

NEW TESTAMENT
The New Testament books were copied by local Christian communities and passed from one to another for decades before an entire collection was made. Since the early letters were written on papyrus, they wore out rapidly and required regular copying. In the early fourth century A.D., fifty copies of the entire Old and New Testament Greek Scriptures were made at the order of the first Christian emperor, Contantine. It is likely that the Vaticanus and Sinaticus codexes, two of the longest early manuscripts to survive, originated from this order.

WHAT IS THE CANON OF SCRIPTURE?
The word canon is a word used to indentify the writings of the prophets, the apostles, and their companions, which are inspired by God and authoritative for truth pertaining to doctrine and life. It means “rule” or “standard.” A book is not inspired because it is declared to be conocical but is considered inspired. Therefore, the church discovered the canonicity of the Old Testament books; it did not determine or cause their canonicity.

WELL THAT IS AN OVERSIMPLIFIED WAY TO SEE IT BUT IN A WAY YOU ARE CORRECT! THE MAIN POINT YOU MUST UNDERSTAND IS THAT RELIGIOUSNES OR METHAPHISICAL BELIEF IS NOT AN OPTION BUT A NECESSITY IN SOCIETY TO BE IN COMMUNITY, HOWEVER THE TURNING OF BELIEFS INTO INSTITUCION IS WHERE THE TRUE PROBLEM LIES.. YOU SEE THE IMPOSITION OF SUBJECTIVE BELIEFS ON MATERIAL REALITY IS IGNORANCE, EDUCATION AND NOT AGGRESIVE ANTAGONISM IS THE CURE TO THIS DECEASE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN OPPOSITE VIEWS ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE COIN READ THE WORKS OF ISSAC NEWTON WHO EXPLAINED THE MECHANICS OF THE UNIVERSE YET RECOGNIZED THE REALITY OF AN OMNIPOTENT POWER THAT SORROUNDS SUCH MECHANISM,, BELIEVE IT OR NOT MANY OF HISTORIES FAMOUS PHISICISTS TO INCLUDE EINSTEIN BELIEVED THE SAME. (WHERE CIENCE STOPS GOD STARTS, CIENCE MOVES ON AND SO DOES GOD). AT THE SAME TIME I RECOMEND YOU READ "THUS SPOKE SARATUSTRA" WHERE NIETZCHE BELIEVES WE HAVE SOLD OURSELVES CHEAP BY RELYING SOLELY ON GOD AND THAT WE CAN LET GO OG GOD AND MOVE ON ON THE SOLE PRINCIPLE OF ETHICS AND MORAL. LIKE WITH ALL GRATE THINKERS THIS LEAVES GRATE SPACE FOR MISINTERPRETATION, SO BE AWARE, HITTLER READ NIETZCHE AND HE INTERPRETED THE CONCEPT OF " SUPERMAN " AS AN EXCUSE TO CONDUCT ETHNIC CLEASING!!! IN REVIEW GOD IS NECESARY BUT SO IS CIENCE TO WORK NOT IN ANTAGONISM BUT AS A SYMBIOTIC ORGANISM A TRICOTOMY THAT COMES AS A RESULT OF REASON AND BELIEF!

You are wrong. The Bible claims to be the Word of God Himself.

Millions of us have found that what it says about God in our lives today is true.

Can't correct you on that one: you're right. I think it would be more felicitous to say "differing beliefs," though.
