In the entire history of the world, which religion ordered the greatest number of killings?

the easy answerer is Christianity, what with the Inquisition, and the crusades. But Rome, Babylon, Greece. There all pretty bloody.

I am interested to know why you are asking this question.

Is it that you want to find out a particular religion has done the most killings? If you do find this out, what are you going to do with the information?

I prefer to live in the now, to leave the past behind, and put onus on any one group or religion regarding any particular subject.

Do you think that when a "body count": is made in any particular war, past or present, that they are always correct.

Or is it politically motivated one way or another.

So could you please answer my question? Why would you like to find out "which religion had the most number of people killed in the entire 2000AD?

What religion was Stalin, Pol Pot, and Hitler again? What religion were the people involved in the beheadings during the French Revolution?

Hitler is a Christian just like Obama is a christian, whatever way the public opinion goes.

CHRISTIANITY

take a look at the spanish inquisitions,take a look at all the crusades in the name of christ where many pilgrims,muslims and crusaders died for the bloodlust of the papacy,what about the holocaust where senior catholic clergy knew what was going on within nazi germany but instead where paid a hefty amount of gold by leading nazis to keep their mouths shut im sure there are many more atrocities committed in the name of god

I would almost say Islam it started the crusades after Mohamed had all ready wiped out a few that were against him .

32,000 in the Spanish Inquisition in total

50,000-60,000 in the Salem Witch Trials

2,500,000 Crusades

10 Abortion Clinic Bombings

70,000,000-75,000,000(yep thats millions)

By communist leaders in the last 600 years

I think it's Christianity, but I'm not sure.

[edit:] The question was asking about religion, atheism is not a religion.

Honestly, atheism. Stalin ordered the imprisonment and execution of millions who did not denounce their former religion. So did Chao and Pol-Pot.

Atheism: Consider Stalin and the rest of the Soviet leaders, Mao, Kim Il-Sung and Jong-Il, that's nearly 75 million dead.

....there's more to the world than 2000 years.
