Religion good or Bad

how can a set of thoughts and teachings be good if they have in one way or form been involved in starting various wars and conflicts in history that has resulted in millions dieing. Surely this indicates that religion is in fact a force of bad (evil) instead of the good that people refer it to.

your looking at it from an ignorant point of view.

if you actually knew knowledge of the many religions or faiths in this world, you would realize that they dont teach of violence, bad, that you so speak of that has been part of history. infact, theres one that speaks of if somebody hits you turn the other cheek. so wheres the violent act in the believer?

You generalize.

Not every religion has had violence or war.
