I would say religious strife is a primary cause of bloodshed throughout history. Even if man uses it as a way to gain support, and nothing else, its still responsible for the death and destruction of millions and millions of lives throughout the course of human history. This is true today, to some extent.

i don't agree. You can raise children and never tell them killing is wrong, don't tell them its right either, guarantee you that if the world was raised this way, our murder rate would be a lot higher. The bible introduced the ideal that killing/stealing/adultery are all wrong. If it had never been said it was wrong then what would make it not right ? All im saying is that God our No god the bible is something this world needed, without it there would have been chaos.
