Religion has never been a problem.
People only use it as an excuse to create a problem.

I just find it completely insane that anyone would fight over an imaginary being that they read about in a book......my imaginary friend is real.....no mine is...yours isn't if I kill you first!

I'm not a religous person, but what gets me, is these people obviously using their religon as an excuse to do terrible things. If anything, if their god is happy with what they were doing, then surely its the devil? If its not the devil, and is in fact god (very unlikely) then i would gladly go to hell!

It's saddening that you feel the need for an explanation.
Rather than developing an uninformed opinion, perhaps you should consider developing an informed one. Or, just follow the herds, I'm sure they will lead you to the subjective truth. It is what it is.

But ISIS says that they are Muslim and that you are not a true Muslim....
So they will cut your head off too. Then they will shout 'Allahu Ahkbar'. Funny that they shout that, not being Muslim and all.

I was reading up about what has been happening in Iraq. I was shocked to read about the isis beheading christian children. I don't know if this is comfirmed, i hope its not true.
Now, these people claim they are doing this for islam. My opinion is i think they are lying. They are killing people because they like it. As simple as that. I even think that maybe they don't believe in God at all, but using it to fuel their lust for violence and murder. Off course, they will never admit it if it were true.
Lets put it this way, If they got what they wanted, and won this war and the whole world was muslim. Do you really think they would stop the violence? I don't think so because its inside them. Its what makes them tick.
Most of you might disagree with me, and mayne i am wrong, but i just can't see how these people actually believe that allah would be happy that they are raping, killing (including children)
Thats why i believe that they are using islam as an excuse to do what they do.
"ISIS is evil, ISIS is located inthe middle east, Iran is in the middle east, we need to invade Iran to stop ISIS.
Sounds about right.
Iraq V 2.0. "
