Agreed, human nature is inherently bigoted. It just seems that religious beliefs nurture suh hatreds, rather than attempting to alleviate or temper the differences.The question is (and I realize there is likely no way to answer accurately) would there be nearly as much destruction because of these differences if the primary mechanism of creating them did not exist?
