The only answer that I can think of ?
Is remembering the lyrics to a particular song that was written by an extremely versatile, loving, peacemaker, and surly missed song writer and performer.
Who - In this song wrote about an imaginary place where no pain, wars or religion - but living in love and peace.
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
................................................. John Lennon
Personal Note:
I believe that I miss him probably more now than ever. A beautiful soul who's lyrics and music will fine no end...

Wouldn't it be great if that happened? I doubt it will, but it would be so great if it did. I mean our religions are so similar i mean everyone, unless you don't belive in anything at all believe's in some sort of higher power, that theres something out there bigger and more powerful than us, and we all seem to believe in some form of life after death. I think people aren't open enough to other religions, like until people accept that maybe, we are all right in someway then i doubt the wars caused by religion will ever stop. Which is such a shame, because religion is supposed to be a comfort, i know mine is to me, and for it to be used as an excuse to start wars is so horrible!

Never, human condition is much to ignorant and selfish. I mean how many loving compassionate God's would allow the murder of innocent people in honour of their name. Religion is the belief in goodness and righteousness of spirit beyond the realm of this existence. Only in the name of evil and it's representatives do these wars continue for any reason. Their is no reason to justify any war.
People mask their own evil intention behind the virtues of their Gods. To those people I say you are not fighting a war in the name of your God, you are signing a deal with the devil and condemning God for your actions.

Yeah, look at how much better things are after Jimmy Carter went to the mideast and brought peace between Jews and Moslems. He won the Nobel prize, so it must have been a success, right?
Next up: peace between Pakistan and India. On second thought, let's not send Jimmy there or nukes might start flying.

People will never stop fighting about religion. There are many different types of religion and branches of it, and people will always believe in different things.
Fighting in the name of their god is like someone fighting for what they stand for in life. Soliders fight wars for their country. People can fight wars to honor their god.

Never. Philosophical differences of such a fervent nature can never be straightened out. Religion is the greatest threat to peace and unified global prosperity mankind can, and will, ever face. It has divided us since its inception, and shows no sign of ever stopping.

once you talk approximately new child of God sent in the worldwide, you won't be able to point any God, or any faith, through fact it is the tale completely from Christianity, and that's between the failings that makes it distinctive from different religions, and if one new child wasn't adequate, then God could could be very unimaginative God. additionally bear in mind that Jesus wasn't what human beings predicted Him to be (got here from lowest of tribes, from basic dad and mom, hasn't been progressive adequate and so on. and so on.), so do no longer even attempt to wager what could God do in this or the different achieveable circumstances.

Its not wars in the name of their god. Jewish, Christian, and Muslims all believe in the same God. Its their different interpretations that they fight over.

it doesnt likely, i mean the world religions have doctrines, that stops a lot of compromise

I sure hope so! But.....probably not likely.....
beliefs divide; love unites (I saw that on a bumper sticker)
