All of Christendoms major religions. In fact, any religion that condones war or encourages it's members to participate in war are bloodguilty in God's eyes. As true Christians, we must remain neutral and be peaceable with all people. We must love our enemies and pray for those who hate and persecute us. We must refuse to take up arms against anyone. In doing this, we become imitators of Jesus and lovers of righteousness.
God's Word reminds all Christians that the only fight we have against is human rulerships and Satan and his demons.
Ephesians 6:12-13--"because we have a wrestling, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places. On this account take up the complete suit of armor from God, that you may be able to resist in the wicked day and, after you have done all things thoroughly, to stand firm."
Luke 6:35--"To the contrary, continue to love your enemies and to do good and to lend, not hoping for anything back; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind toward the unthankful and wicked."

You are right dude!!!
But i agree with Paulie D. Religion does not kill. Its the People who do...
But then the people who killed the most are the Christians, not 'Christianity'. The Bible does not ask to kill like the Crusaders did when they captured Jerusalam. THese Christian murderers didnt spare women and children. Their horses were knee deep in Blood. Again let me make it clear, that Christianity is not responsible for it. It was the Church that made these wars take place.
When Salahuddin (Saladin) recaptured Jerusalem, history is the witness that he let all the people of other faiths leave in peace. Those who stayed back were not persecuted but granted rights.
But i think, the Jews will surpass them, because their record of killing in the Palestinian land is quite amazing. Again, Judaism does not call to kill like the Jews did in Palestine.

properly, I'de ought to declare it particularly is a quite close race between Catholics and Muslims. to this point as massacures or wars are worried, the early Isralites did plenty that stuff. Alot of the countries they waged conflict with on the time have been into the worship of fake gods etc. in spite of the undeniable fact that we additionally see that those countries have been working in direction of Human sacrifice, bizar intercourse acts, pedifilia and the inhumane killing of animals for use of sacrifices. with the intention to respond to your question, it may rely on the way you regarded at it. Now adays, we'd attempt to arrest and imprision newborn molestsers, and persons who commit crimes as defined above, yet early Israle used the therough attitude of exterminating them. I meant you need to evaluate this additionally a conflict of religion, in spite of the undeniable fact that it particularly is far distinctive. Catholosisim over the years has addopted a lot of those comparable practices from the pegan religions they assimulated. however the Catholic church murdered alot of persons who would not conform. And allowed many human beings to dye. (I.E. the jewish holocost). to this point as my reasoning for protecting Muslims, or to be greater spacific, Muslim extreamists, purely watch the information it sluggish. each and every base faith, someplace in it particularly is previous is to blame for some killing. Granted i detect that some killing are symply crule acts of premeditated genocide, the place as others have been waged to end the extra suffering of human existence. purely undergo in techniques this to, previously you assert, "properly, i'm happy i'm no longer catholic". in case you hold sunday sabath, christmas, or easter, or something remotly on the ingredient to that team of hollidays, you could as properly be!

Religion doesn't kill. People kill. Wars aren't fought for religion. They're fought for wealth and power. You don't need an excuse not to accept Christianity It's your choice.

The list is long and undistinguised, but...
Both directly and indirectly, Roman Catholicism.
Directly from the crusades, inquisition, etc.
Indirectly because Hitler was a Roman Catholic -- and his upbringing in that church colored his beliefs about how bad Jews were, and led to his mass murder of European Jews.
Don't think protestants get off easy, though -- the vast majority of the people who carried out Hitler's "final solution" were protestants (mostly Lutherans), and many of them were perfectly comfortable wiping out jews and felt it was in line with their church's teachings...
