Top Ten Most Pointless Conflicts Between Religions

Like most religious conflicts, they are two sides of the same coin. It's just that as these are the two most followed religions of the present day, they make their image in international news. Fundamentally, what separates them is just their label, as the Bible and Quran are traced back to the same historical origins and preach very similar ideals.

Consider the right wing Christian fundamentalists in the United States. What they want more than anything is their religion to be the centre of their government. As a result of this, children would be made to pray in schools, LGBTs would become second class citizens, contraceptives and abortions would be outlawed, evolution would be replaced by creationism, war would be promoted, and innocent people would regularly be tortured and murdered in the name of their God.

As a Christian, I never condemned anyone for such actions, but the Westboro clearly does the wrong stuff.

Catholics used to be very intolerant to any other religion, and when the churches started to become corrupt, many people created and started believing in Protestantism to fix the church. The Catholics didn't like that, so they persecuted Protestants.
