That's the problem with major religions. They each preach that all the others will go to hell.
It's not a big leap to the position that you might as well kill those unbelievers right now.
It even happens within the major religions. Shi'ite vs Sunni, Catholic vs Protestant.

Not quite! While the Catholic church says that IF YOU BELIEVE IT TO BE THE TRUE church, but do not embrace it, you will be lost, it also says that you must follow your conscience. We all start from different points and have different influences in our lives.

That's the problem with major religions. They each preach that all the others will go to hell. Is it a problem if it is accurate? The way you talk, it sounds like religions are just commodities to be picked off a shelf for their pure aesthetic value.
