I really don't want to get into a debate about religion,but since you ask:
Firstly, I believe "religion is a crutch" also a ideology/tool set up with a sole purpose to divide folk.
The causes of WW1 are complicated,to blame one specific thing (like religion) may seem unfair, however we have to lay blame where blame is due. 
On top of most of our current problems evolving from WW1 and WW2,(I also believe)“the First World War was wholly Christian in origin” and that opposition came from Socialists who were “anti-Christian.”-Bertrand Russell.
All the other things (WW2 (not global warming,you got me there  ) are pretty much a knock/flow on from WW1.
For eample,World war one helped cause the russian revolution,Which (again,I believe) was the main reason for WW2.
I hope this goes some way to answering your questions JCB.
You may think i'm a “Richard cranium” ,but try not to hate me too much (that goes for you too "grand wizard) (it's not the church going way).

I don't hate you at all , and can't envisage any reason why I ever should .
I was simply asking you some questions the answers to which should have backed up your claim if they were accurate .
I think you are clutching at straws in the answers you give regarding WW1 and WW2 .
How on earth WW1 was Christian in origin , as you say , baffles me . How was WW1 Christian in origin ?
I am not prepared to comment on the effects of non-Christian religions , but I do know that Christians throughout the centuries , up to the present day , have been the cause of many problems , often evil problems , but I see no evidence to suggest in the least that it is honest to blame the world's problems on "religion" , "religion" being a word you have not given your meaning of as I asked you to .
So , sorry , but your post goes no way to answering my questions .
