Which religion is the most peaceful? (or least violent)?
148794
I was going to say, it HAS to be the Jains. They rely so much on their idea of ahimsa (non-violence) in relation to every living being, they have to be the most peaceful. \n\nHave you ever seen that commercial about the Kleenex that kills germs and features that monkish guy who uses the Kleenex then feels really bad about killing all the bacteria? That's how I see the Jains, going out of their way to be nice type of people.

I think the best religion is the one Jesus told us to follow. I think the worst religion is the one that is talked into the ground and yet not followed. Therefore all religions are the best or worst depending upon the person who is the example of it.

The religions are essentially peaceful, however, the people who practice religions are not the most stable mentally (that's why they need a mental crutch in the form of an universal father figure).

Though one\nIt's not really nice to everybody\nYou always have to pick on one religion.\n\nI am a Christian so that's the best.\n\nBut to ask what is the worst religion in the world you can't really choose one... to not hurt anybody....\n\nAll religions that have to do with Satan...

A perfect description!  A violent muslim is no more a follower of Mohammed's teachings than a violent Christian is a follower of Jesus' teachings or a violent Buddhist is a follower of Buddha's teachings.  Similarly, a hateful or closed minded member of any of these faiths isn't doing such a good job of following the religion either.

That time will never come because the two faiths seem to be different in their emphases. one preaches tolerance and peace, one says peace but  seem to encourage violence in defence of faith. Things could still change though!if people would understand the that there's only one God, that human Beings are too small to defend God. God  defends man and not man fighting for God.Further more, you can be fighting for God by killing His creatures-His precious children and think God would be Happy. It boils down to knowledge!Not going to school!Again, people who are involved in preaching religions should mind their ulterances! we keep hearing 'no religion preaches violence' and everyday we see religious people planting bombs in places of worship in the name of God!If we say we are peaceful religion let us see it in practice not only in principle!There's hope that some day, someone will understand that we are all one in God's sight and that human blood is very sacred!

No there are moslems that are peaceful law abiding folks. However there are those that are terroist also. Same with us though, I look at the shock and awe part of the war with Iraq as nothing more the terrorism.

Not all muslims are terrorists but almost all terrorists are muslims.  There are about 140 armed conflicts going on in the world today and muslims are involved in every one of them.  Definitely not a peaceful religion.

Islam is a very aggressive religion. Of all of the wars/conflicts in the world, something like 95% of the at least ONE if not BOTH sides are Muslim. If you read about what people are doing to innocent women and children in places like Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia in the name of Islam it's bad(cutting the throats of whole families if they don't observe Islam as devoutly as they should, burn torture to enslaved christian children if they refuse to learn Islam, etc....)

Almost everybody is violent, if not in their actions then in their words. Christians along with any other religion claim to be non- violent but just look at how everybody hits each other kills each other, even parents spank their own children now and then.\nsorry, my pacifist friend, but the fact is that the whole world is non-pacifist.

Islam and Christianity both have a history of using religion to justify violence, ethnic cleansing, and war.  I would find it hard to claim one is more bloody than the other.\n\nOf course, Islamic extremists would justify the perception that jihad - "holy war" makes Islam the religion with the most "soldiers of god" today.\n\nBut looking back in history, Christianity was used to justify the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and colonization and ethnic cleansing of Native Americans.\n\nBoth religions are just as bloody.  And I would probably say that Christianity has been used to justify the deaths of more people than Islam.  Terrorists pluck off a few at a time, maybe a thousand in a big attack.  Wars fought by Christians killed many, many more.

Religion is what you want it to be. Islam focuses on the death and doom, Christianity on the false hope. In the end you get to decide what religion is.

brutality. they only teach an  "individual practice" there own. I have yet to see a true single religious teaching. I have also tried several different religion's. The best I can tell you is to take a little from each individual they teach and learn from them, Know "ONE RELIGION" has the answer, but collectively they have it right, Each teaches you the small of truth but none have the single true answer alone. Love them all if they are teaching you pure love.and not manipulated hate. remember don't worry about the similarities, Practices the teachings.
