   Governments or Religion has murdered or genocide more people in the world for the last 100 years?
   
   Religion
   Heard a saying of. More people have been killed in the name of God than any other reason.
   
   Governments
   Mass Murder: the indiscriminate killing of any person or people by a government. Democide: The murder of any person or people by a government, including genocide, politicide, and mass murder.
   
   Think of Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Presidents of the US.

      There is no such religion that promotes violence. It's entirely done as per people's own will and for their own benefits and then later that crime is wonderfully decorated with the name of God. What an art, isn't it?

      People have killed in the name of religion, peace, love, freedom, equality -- or any other concept which they chose to interpret their own way -- when suddenly there was a discount on the price of life.
      To judge such people is like visiting a madhouse and judging the people's behavior there -- it's a waste of time. The whole tragedy is in the fact that some lunatics are allowed to have an absolute power, and some brainwashed masses even elect them..

         People have been programed for so long into being so comfortable numb. So when the 2 US Presidents have declared war on covid. Many people think the Government wouldn't possible harm or kill them.
         Yes they would , human history clearly shows this.
         Yes, killing is a mental illness.
         Unless your going to eat the sheep and cow, the nonhuman kind.

   Think Pol Pot in Cambodia, Idi Amin, and many other dictators as well. Some just used religion as a scapegoat to take the blame for their attrocities, like ISIS.

      So true, John. I loved your response. According to Islam, To kill one human is equal to killing the whole mankind. I am 100% sure it is the same for each and every religion that exists.

         When Bush said God told him to invaded Iraq, his little doG confirm it.
         
         I had my US green card taken away from me because I refused to do GW Bush a war sculpture. I was too nonviolence for America.

            Politics is the dirtiest and cruelest game in my opinion.

               At least religion has rules they try to follow. Where Governments are always stealing by taxes, fines and licences  taking away nearly half our money. Then claim from birth cannel waters to furural inheritance deaths.  With a licence to kill, yet religion has thou shall not kill rule.

   Politics, in my opinion, is a bad game. It is cruel, and it progressively sows seeds of enmity among the peoples of their own countries.
   
   It blindfolds the eyes of people , and even pleasant things are presented as negative. I'm grateful we have online social media platforms where we can hear from people rather than governments. It's a boon, in my opinion.
   
   It's always a joy to witness people from two countries (whose countries are at a state of war with each other.) When they connect on any online platform, they realize how governments and powerful authorities have damaged their lives.
