Notice most of today's religion preach peace? What happenen? Most politicians twisted it around and made the religion a propaganda piece for their wars.

In other words, the goal for peace turned it into a actaullity of war.

So why not make a religion of war and make the goal of that religion total war? Then the results will be the opposite because people get sick and tired of fighting that they would give up fighting. Or make everyone afraid of attacking each other cuase of how prone to violence or how scary our war rituals would be tat they wouldnt dare fight in fear of getting wiped out.

Lateral!

I doubt it would work.

The politcians aren't preaching war. They're preaching a one-way conquering of anyone they don't like.

So I reckon a religion based on war would be twisted into imperialism in the same way, as religions based on peace have been.

National Socialism was a religion that wanted war, and I think thats what it would have found.

Whats wrong with war?

Depends on one's perspective, if lying on the ground moments after your leg has been blown off by a landmine -- perhaps the answer would be obvious.

Yeah but i figure when people get tired of it they would at least turn on the politicians or something....

True peace has nothing to do with relgion or choice, but rather the peace of being one with the relgion OF choice and being tolerent so others can have the same choices given.

I think peace has little to do with religion or belief systems, peaceful areas of the earth siphon off resouces from less fortunate areas and are peaceful because they don't have to go to war to feed expanding populations or reclaim territory taken from them in previous wars.
