I'm all for being told I'm incorrect, but empty posts like that don't help your cause here. Tell my why I'm wrong.
As a token from my understanding...
1) Oliver Cromwell was apparently led by his devotion to God.
2) The Islamic Revolution in Iran (1970s) where Imam Khomeini is said to believe in the 'war of conquest whose final goal is to make Koranic law supreme from one end of the earth to the other’. apparently, he wanted this war....
3) Philip II of Spain truly believed he was doing the work of God during his campaigns, did he not?
4)"For God and Country" (blame the Americans for that one)
5)The Egyptians rule over several Dynasties was led by their religious beliefs
Those are just for starters, but humour me. like i said, I was of the understanding religion was behind many deaths over a few thousand years, but enlighten me as you seem to know better (which I am not doubting). but simply posting "oh for crying out loud" doesn't help much. I'm sure even you can see that.
