[QUOTE="AlexisInfectious®, post: 2953881, member: 924332"] I mean generally, in society. Many people simply will not admit to the bad things of religion, such as that one can use the Koran to justify some terrible actions. The response many people give is that this isn’t real Islam, but rather a ‘hijacked’ version. Some people tend to place religion has far down the list of causes/influences of conflicts in an attempt to make it insignificant. I disagree with this as how one views reality is significantly, if not entirely derived from ones [religious] beliefs. Hence religion can never not be a big factor, even if it isn’t directly obvious. Our beliefs influence every single thing we do. (This is why I will also question why people believe what they believe). Our religious beliefs also separate us from being merely human beings, thus creating differences. So while I completely agree that the political state of the world is the key motivating factor, I hold that the reason for these political differences is again rooted in our perception of reality.
