Isn't it strange that all the religions that are continually at war with each other come from the same part

of the world, Judaism, Islam and Christianity all stemmed from the middle east

    Sweetie, what do you expect when they are each fighting in the name of the same god? Allah, YHWH, and God are all 3 the same Abrahamic deity.

    What makes you think that Christianity is at war with Islam?

    Oh, I forgot. People don't fight over land, resources, money, political idealogy, or cultural values anymore. And despite the fact that all of the Christians in the United States combined make up less than 10% of all Christians, US agression in Iraq is still an act of Christianity. And even though radical Islam makes up just as small a minority of the Islamic world, it must be an act of Islam.

    And it wouldn't be strange to war with somebody the other side of the world???

    You are not at war with religion are you?

    thats kinda true but before those religions were found (made up) other religions were still fighting each other.

    Monguls were fighting everyone in asia....

    Romans and their gods were fighting Egyptians and their gods etc etc..... so im not sure what your point is.

    If you can find me a place on earth that has never been fighting its neighbour for either religion or for land then you will be lying.

    To be fair, all 3 of those religions were derived from earlier Pagan ones that haven't lasted through the ages and are all based on fear and violence. That probably has something to do with it.

    Ultimately that's where people, at least, primarily, originally came from. With that in mind, in makes perfect sense.
