Peaceful GOD and massive crimes

one day in my life, I used to respect religions because I considered it is a right for others to follow as I have the right to be an Atheist ; not anymore after watching all bad impacts on people behavior specially when justifying aggressive reactions or actions in the name of religion or God. Spread racism or hate in the name of GOD or religion is not a right. I still can't believe till now how people are naive and still believe of a GOD that claim power and ultimate mercy yet allow killing in mass while doing nothing , living up there only watching. If he exists, then definitely he needs to be charged for war massive crimes as no one allow killing in that massive amount than him ... its so sad, people loosing their life just because they are diffident and for one reason because their "merciful" GOD created that ugly flavors of religions (assuming its true) .... hope someday people wake up and live in peace because it is common sense not because of its masked by message from hidden false idols.

Proud for wrong reasons

when I came to USA almost two years ago, I met few Iraqi families that live in concetrated areas. I noticed that ethnicity and religion background is something they feel defensive about it and somehow they try to hide it initially so that they show libirity or maybe ignorance due to the fact they live in USA but after a while thier believes start appear on thier discussions so clearly.

Its like the far you go from your country the more you got local about your origins , they feel proud to mention I'm Muslim, Christian , Kurdish, Chaldean ..etc than saying I'm Iraqi.

Wars had contributed in this insecure pride feelings as it made impacted people think that thier origins are in danger by other groups but these thoughts are the goals of war specially civil wars to make people fight each other so I was surprised that people living in USA which supposed to be stable place act definicivly like someone will wipe them from the earth

and the funy thing you can meet with families from other ethnicities and you can spend good time with but if a reliogus or politic subjiect opened then heat starts getting deep and maybe makes you not welcomed.
