    No religious scriptures or Texts admire the killings of a soul. The religious riots are nothing a fight between two religious people. The religion is nothing to do with their fights. Some people in all religions are spoiling the religion name by their selfish fights.

    I dont know if admire is the right word, but many christians join the military of their country and go to other lands and kill people of the same religion. How is that loving your brother?

    There is nothing like religious riots. People have differentiated such thing. Behind all riots and such incidents, personal aims, agendas are there. Few people do this for their personal gain. There isn't any religion in my knowledge that permits to kill other religion person.

    Yes . Islam is the only religion in this universe ( even according to its own scripture ) that appreciates and rewards one who killed the people of other religions!

    It is Islam that encourages killing of other religious people in the world.

    They kill for political reasons. Some of them kill members of other religous sects in order to create hostility between different religious sects (still a political motivation).

    No religion admires killing others, otherwise, no one would stick to that religion. People are not crazy.

    Does any religion admire killing persons of other religions? I hope not. Christians have the commandments from God "Thou shalt not murder! " and Jesus told Peter to "put away his sword" We don't wrestle or fight against flesh and blood (people) but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, we are not to take up arms to physically fight with people but take up the whole armour of God that we may be able to withstand in the evil day and having done all to stand.

    We fight with the Word of God and prayer, just as Jesus did as commanded in the following verses of Ephesians 6:14-18)

    a co worker put on his sight a book called Drunk With Blood that tries to tell of the answer to your question.

    in american history certain indians called themselves 'human' and other tribes where not, because of not being that certain tribe, therefore they could be hunted and killed like animals, and it was ok. That is what it comes down to, do 'we' see them as human? "Infidel" and other words are used to make it ok to kill others, because they are not 'human'.
