Sometimes the lunatics in this world really piss me off.

Bollocks is it Gods will. Why the fuck do they all kill each other over land or oil or whatever, and try to convince themselves that it's what God would want them to do, and so what they're doing is right??
They've only got to read their respective religious texts to see that they're all wrong. Although the texts in question were written so vaguely that they can be interpreted in a thousand different ways, they cant be interpreted so wrongly that killing people becomes right, surely??
And could somebody please explain to me the meaning of the phrase "Holy War"??

For some reason, Religious officials believe that by declaring a bloody war "Holy", that makes it right in the eyes of God, and that the war shall do them no harm on their karma/life/spirit/whatever.
In all reality, it's just a poor way to avoid facing that the war you participated so admantly in killed thousands of people and promoted violence instead of peace. Upon declaring a war "Holy", it seems as though religions think that their cause was more recognisable, the deaths caused, forgivable.
As stated previously, there is no "Holy War". Simply, it's religious zealots trying to make their actions right in the eyes of God, but if they had studied their own religions, they would see violence is not promoted in any case, even if it is to "better" their own world/religion/worship.
In any case, they're fucked.
