Well, some religion is good, and some is bad. Some people have perverted their religion. I think we should be tolerant. Now, this doesnt mean we give up our morals to do so. But there is a happy medium between that and suicide bombing. You cant blame religion, you have to blame the people. For example, Islam. Islam is not the most peaceful religion out there, but there are peaceful followers. If those followers can do it, so can the ones in the Mid East that are causing all the problems.

In the twentieth century, communist nations exterminated more than 100 million people. That's more than the total number of deaths from every Christian, Islamic, and Jewish related war combined.
And fascism/communism are NOT religions.

There will never be peace on this earth with religious people running around spewing hatred while they claim peace. It is time for us to open our eyes. Look at all the hatred and war going on now, it is all based on religious differences, which, in my opinion, is a complete and utter waste of time. Religion is peaceful? Yeah right.

Religion does not kill people. People kill people in the name or religion if it is the best excuse they can find for doing so at any given time.

Sorry but you are wrong. The biggest killer in human history was "social engineering"- the idea that society has to be modified for it's own good.
Of course you might choose to regard "communism" and "socialism" as religions - in which case you are correct.
In terms of numbers killed, communism is tops.
Second comes fascism (a nationalist branch of communism)
Muslims and Mongols are tied for third place
