Every religion has its bad (by todays standards) parts, I mean just look around the Bible a bit, that book has some pretty bad stuff in it. Hell in my Hellenic Pagan beliefs in one of the stories the Greeks sacrifice a virgin so that the fleet sailing to Troy doesn't hit any problems.
Does this mean that whenever I'm about to go on a trip I go sacrifice some World Of Warcraft players? Of Course not. Just because a holy book has these bad parts doesn't mean that every believer in that religion follows every word to the letter. If they did then the christians would be a lot more violent.
Every religion and even Atheism can be the cause of violence.
