I think the biggest problem I hold in the entire thing is that despite both religions, or every religion for that matter, are based on the teachings of their respective 'prophet', be it Mohammed or Jesus or Buddha... Very few actually follow said teachings. Iraq fights in the name of Allah. U.S. fights in the name of Christ. Neither uphold the actual beliefs of the religion they're fighting for. To me, this is one of the most frustrating things.

Humans fight, it's part of our nature. As morbid as my next statement may seem I believe that our need to fight people that are different from us is almost a form of population control. Universal peace would be a wonderful thing and I hope we get to see it with some form of understanding but I don't think it will ever happen. Religion gets thrown into the mix because it is one of the easiest things to get people angry about. It has been used as an excuse for violence for thousands of years.
