The straight answer is: Religion is not the root of world problems.

Those who are fighting because of religion are mere lawless fanatics who have nothing else doing with their lives but to waste it. Their lives are meaningless and they have no future. Instead of just jumping into a river, they vent their anger on other people.

Killing in the name of God is absolute craziness or complete insanity!

It is not the root, but it contributes immensely to the problems. It is definitely not helping to solve the problems. That's for sure.

Christianity is a big problem, Better say Christianity, when Christian people reply, they will tell you Christianity is not a religion.
