Because they invariably belong to a religion that teaches that it is the only true religion and that all others are enemies of God. If people took personal responsibility for their spitituality instead of blindly following this 'one true voice of God' maybe it would be a more peaceful world. Oh, and gelfin is wrong, the ENTIRE Bible does not teach that. The NT is completely the opposite. Jesus said that love of God and love of neighbour where the whole of the law.

Because God has a plan and the only ones who are not part of it is the ones that delude them self about how you shouldn't kill and stuff,no the commandments are hierarchical the ones that are upper are more important,those who don't kill are just cattle,sacrificial lambs to the wolves ,THATS why I DON'T LIKE GOD

True Christians do NOT kill anyone , no matter what they may say or do against them.
That is commanded form the Bible , so if any Christian participates in any thing like this, or goes to war , then they ARE NOT truly following GOD.
It is that simple.

If you get defensive about God, then you're not gonna kill someone. It's when it turns to offensive that someone /might/ kill someone. Why? Ask why to anyone that goes killing. ultimately, it's an illogical motive.

In the Bible, God repeatedly COMMANDS his followers to kill other people. It's just that few really obey him.

What they preach is what they've been told for their whole lives. Go against that and, forbid, corner them with reason and turn them into a sputtering mess, they're going to be lost without their old ideas to cling to. And they'll do what it takes to protect those ideas. To hell with the commandments, they'll kill you anyhow.

Members of some religions actually get upset over cartoons that include things about their religion.

Well in the case of one Mr. Bush, God told him to.
Yep he did.

poor thinking gets poor results someone should at least leave it up to their god to prove their faith instead of acting out their grandiose delusions in real time .
