Humans are just animals. War is part of being human. Whether you like it or not we will always have war as long as we have religion and a majority of people following it and as long as we have countries that have dictatorships.
Most people do not like to kill people but if you tell them they are doing it for their God or because the other country is full of evil people that want to kill them it's much easier to talk them into doing it.
That's why very few atheist are willing to go fight in a war.
Do you think you would be able to get Americans to go over to Iraq and fight if %90 of them were Christians?
Politicians fake a lot of things. Do you really believe that all those senators and congressmen believe in God?
%16 of Americans are atheists. The higher up the education ladder you go the higher the percentage of atheists goes up.
The same is true of income. The more money people make the more likely they are to be nonbelievers in any god.
These are some of the smartest and richest people in our society.
