What is the most violent religion?

Answer 1

Answer 1

No one religion can be said to be more violent than another, because it all depends on how people act upon their religion. Interpretation of the various religious scriptures can lead to many conclusions about the violence or non-violence therein.

Answer 2

Irrelevant to different faiths, all religions call for good morals and peace. So, no one can claim that a religion is more violent than another. One may admit that some religion followers are more adherent to their religion than others and more jealous than others.

Answer 3

Nearly every religion has a sect or group which can be quite violent. The only major religion that does not have (or had) such sects would be Jainism. This is not to say that the rotten apples spoil the bunch, but that they exist regardless of religion. Most religious individuals are rather peaceful and it is not the religion itself that causes the violence, but the willful reading of the religion in such a way as to contextualize the violence within a person's soul.

There have been numerous Christian Death Cults and Christian Governments (such as Catholic Spain in the 1500s) that were quite violent. There were Jewish zealots both 2000 years ago and now who are rather violent. There are Muslims who blow up buildings across continents. The Hindu Tamil Tigers invented suicide bombings. The Buddhist Sohei, Ikki-Ikki, 20th Century Bushido Cults of Japan promoted the idea of killing without remorse, etc.
