Nice list, but every religion was born differently. The only things they have something in common is that in the past no one care about violence, homophobia or something else in this list. So only in these last years they are trying to hide them past.
What do you mean? I think religions were built on violence, or most certainly spread that way. Homophobia has always been there too. It was probably even worse back in the day as it was more taboo and punishible by death in most countries.
They spread like that most of the times over holy wars which are not wars for religion but for resources disguised as religion.
