Personal belief still exists, except nowadays the only belief we all seem to share is that our own beliefs are right. So regardless of your religion the outcome of such thinking is hatred, division & possibly death/war.

In Buddhism there is no preaching nor PRACTISING War,hatred--there is only natural death which is un-avoidable-but no goading ,coaxing, "Religious order" to KILLor to convert--It is why a Religion which was prevalent in the entire South and South East Asia has now shrunk to a small number of People. I am not a Buddhist.

Because humans are tribal animals - if people didn't divide themselves by religion it would be for a nation's flag, skin colour (or football shirt).
Man has been killing since we learnt how to pick up a rock and smash it on out fellow man's head - and it'll happen well after we've gone.

No do not believe everything they tell you and most what they
tell you is best suited for their own personal gain of brain-
washing a person
You need only to believe in God and that he is and Jesus died
for you and all you need and the rest is BS
and pay no attention to all the lies and dogma out there

Because if someone does not accept Christ, they will go to Hell, which would be terrible.
