can anyone restore my faith in humanity and god??? look, i've studied history, i've studied the things that have been done in the name of god. more people have been killed in his name than for any other reason. can someone give me a good reason to believe? I know it was corrupt people that twisted the words of the bible, but in that case, if people are to do that, twist it, misunderstand it, and use it to suit their own whims, are we not better off without any religion? I understand the message in the bible, I understand what god wants, what jesus wants, but it just ain't working, its good intentions have created hate and war. so can someone give me a reason to believe?

First of all, Christianity isn't a religion, its a relationship with Jesus. And the only reason hate and war have risen is because of mans pride, disobedience and selfishness. Jesus came to give us life in abundance. If you want a reason to develop a relationship with Him it is simply because you need Him. God bless

Are you sure that those people were all killed in the Almighty God Yahweh's name?

Read the Old testament all those killed were not listening to Yahweh... they worshiped others gods

It is man's fault for not listening and obeying Yahweh.

If you put your faith in other gods then you should realise that none is Higher than Yahweh.
Throughout the Bible the message is clear! Obey and listen,because no other is more powerful.
The only time Jewish people are delivered in enemy hands is when they do evil!

Now as a sacrifice Yahweh gave his son for our salvation.
The other gods demand the people sacrifice their own children to them.
Even though it is all in vain.

Now Yeshua was sent so that we may be forgiven by his Father our creator Yahweh.
He did not do away with the law he came to uphold his Father's law given to Moses.
Lost in translation the message let's people think that we are not under the Law.
We are forgiven for all our sins only by the sacrifice of our Saviour Yeshua son of Yahweh.
If we know therefor that we are doing things that do not please our Heavenly Yahweh, do simply quote Yeshua to cancel out our sin?
If pork is unclean in sight of Yahweh, do we quote Yeshua , about it is not what a man eats that makes him unclean, but what he says?

Would we not glorify Yahweh by attempting to keep Sabbath?
Or by not eating pork?

If we were tricked into eating pork then we know it is forgiven, is different to enjoying it lavishly.
Just an example, because I am aware we are born in times of deep deception.
The Jewish people kept their sacrifice to Yahweh while he prepared to use them to bring forth his only son our Saviour Yeshua.

The Passover is when Yeshua was killed for our sins, before that time they would eat unleavened bread at this time, since then we all can eat the Risen bread of life, which is Yeshua son of Yahweh.

Pick up your Bible and see how it all comes to pass.
 
Sorry, that we'd be better off without religion because some people misuse it is a weak argument. People misuse the law, does that mean we shouldn't have laws? Anything can be twisted and used for the wrong reason. Law, religion, politics, friendship, family, music, writing, art, technology.. does that mean we would be better off without them? Really what that is is an unbalanced look at something. You're focusing only on one aspect. And on top of that, the aspect you're focusing on does not even reflect the beliefs of the people following the belief. I suggest not taking all your focus and putting it on the negative aspects of things.
