It could be argued that all worship the same god.

Using that arguement, everyone religious should shut the **** up and let people worship how they want.

Unfortunately, religion is not the reason for the fighting in the name of religion, it is more often used as an excuse.

The crusades for example.

Ironically, those ISIL people who go around destroying historical tombs of Christian folks)amongst a whole manner of other things including people), are actually destroying historical tombs related to their own religion....go figure how stupid they are

Ultimately it's not religion that is causes friction, it's culture. Whilst culture and religion are entwined, there are many cases of different religions in similar cultures getting along fine.

Different culture means different morals, actions and opinions. And hence people fight over it. Or you could even argue that power-hungry individuals use the friction as an excuse to grab more power.

Having said that, there are some cases of similar cultures having huge problems over relatively minor differences in religious doctrine, but these don't normally end up in open warfare.

That's not the argument I was making.

I doubt anyone actually cares what anybody believes.

a *lot* of these kind of replies to western media postings on Facebook - maybe some insight into why it happened and how the media do often mis-report things
