Yeah, I don't see how people can get so confused by their holy books. Or how they can NOT be confused. With all this contradiction, why do they even bother? It rather bothers me that so many people seem to "need" this kind of guidance in their lives. Anyone who proclaims that the two holy books are all about peace are liars or idiots.

So many passages in the Bible urge killing

Then we have multiple passages that urges against killing

And the Koran urges killing
