Which religion is the most evil and has killed the most people?

These can be two separate answers.

I think Christians and Jews for both

Peace be with you

the state

If it's judeo-christian

A question like that serves no other purpose than to incite flame wars and bash religion. Unless you're writing a paper on it or something, which is doubtful. Sad people really have nothing better to do with their time. ❌

It is a question, I have written all my papers.

None. Religion is a concept. True evil are the men serving it and killing in its name 🙂 The religion that's gotten the most glances revolving evil killings in history is probably Christianity. Few seem to remember that one of the commandments ask of you not to kill 😛

Few realize that killing is not done by religion. It's done by men failing to follow it, many of the times.

Thank you! I've been trying to explain exactly that for, like, 3 pages on another thread.

It's also at times done by men (and women) succeeding in following it.

If the religion tells you to, yes. But many people forget that very important part of the equation when blaming a religion for a persons actions.

Perhaps, blame is not a zero-sum game though, enough of that to go around.

Most violent religion... probably Judaism. Christianity and Islam killed "more" but back in the days of old Israel there was a lower population in general.

To be honest, all three major abrahamic religions suck in this category.

I would say that in many if not most cases the blame rests almost completely on the person.

Hmm, I think I'd disagree, especially with Religiously inspired violence there's usually instigators...or even more people in positions of power who order that violence.
