I mean presumably they go to different places... I guess soldiers might.

I don’t believe in heaven and hell but imagine if religious preached “following order to kill = going to hell”

Would never fly religion has killed more people than every single other war in human history combined.

I dont got one but most wars have been religiouse in nature but ur right ww1/2 might skew that a little simply due to larger populations being sacrified. But then again there has been thousands of years of religiouse wars throughout history someone shoudl do the analysis i recon it would be close.

Google something about crusades and other religious wars, should be enough

A quick search gives 7% for the proportion of religious wars of all wars, which makes the claim that religious wars killed the most people unlikely.

I hate religion as much as the next guy, but you don't have to make shit up.
