Religious violence is born form the teachings that "my religion is better that yours " kind of indoctrination.
Followers of certain religions are indoctrinated to believe that they are following the "True path" and everybody else suffers from a case of mass hysteria and are waiting to be "saved".
"saving " is where the problem lays.
let's not try to save the world by suppressing any religion or declaring that one religion is better than another or even insinuating that a religion is socially inferior, because for some people faith is like family or land, if threatened they will fight for it with whatever they have until they either protect it or die trying.

Politically inspired violence has a tendency to be a final hotel while politics and international family members fails (for this reason, we circulate to warfare.) Religiously inspired violence has a tendency to stream from the desire to get rid of dissent, freethinkers, and customarily human beings of alternative religions. Islam is to blame of this and Christianity has been to blame of this interior the previous.

Religion is a human activity. If we're to overcome the violent part of this human activity, we must rise above our humanity. The only effective means of becoming more than "human", is to become infused with the divine...in summary, we must believe the good news of Jesus Christ and subsequently we must then let the Holy Spirit fill us, change us, transform us into beings who love our enemies as Jesus loved them.

By keeping a loaded gun on you at all times. That's how you can "overcome" someone trying to kill you.

By loving instead of hating and by taking judgement out of our hearts. Which of course means that you can no longer hate your neighbor because he believes in different gods than you do.

Learning to accept that people do not all share the same beliefs, and it is not man's responsibility to correct or punish "sinners"

We can't. It'd be nice, but there will always be idiots out there who believe that God wants them to kill everyone not like them.
