gollark: Not all religions say "be peaceful and not mean to each other", though?
gollark: I mean, if you believe Religion 1 and believe that everyone who believes Religion 2 will go to hell and suffer forever, then you obviously don't want Religion 2 to spread.

gollark: Looking at religious conflicts probably doesn't require knowing about all the deep details of the religions involved, because people do tribalism and probably do not meaningfully care about the actual underlying point.
gollark: You can just study history, though.
