...put their wars? Throughout history, wars have been about religion, or justified by religions, and exploited by them.
Where do believers put wars vs "Do not murder?"

It must be uncomfortable to talk about a loving God and view all the murder done in His name and excused by the officials of religion. Those excuses are then reused to justify more war.

That's why I don't call myself a Christian. The title is too commonly associated with Christianity. By being a part of the religion, I was not suffering for Jesus' sake, but for the crimes of a religion.

1 Peter 4:15-16 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20peter%204:15-16&version=NASB;

I call myself a Calvinist, since I hold the beliefs of John Calvin, but I'm actually just a believer of Jesus.
