We are all witness of recent events, war, killings, and terrorism claiming they are doing it for their god. What do you think of this belief?

This is the most common problem in religion, I believe. Notice that in every religion that there is, they all have some written scriptures or rules about the teachings of their respective religion. Now, here comes the problem, most of the context their are really old and cannot be exactly interpreted based from who wrote them. That is why there is a misunderstanding, that could sometimes lead to killing.

Have you ever thought why the adherents of the eastern religions (Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Taoism.etc) almost never engage in religion-based fighting, while those who believe in the western religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam.etc) are more prone to violence? Scriptures are there in both the groups. So what is the difference?
