    ​@@user-te4of2fq5d But he didn't. Cain wasn't real, nor was Abel. Biblical scholars agree stories like that are metaphors. Someone dumbed down man's loss of inculpability as he evolved a sophisticated enough intelligence to feel regret and shame for bad actions, and wrote it down. Other people then declared God must have inspired that story and a bunch of other ones. The people that pushed the whole God-inspired story thing ended up as the most powerful and wealthy people in the world. They added a bunch more rules that their Jesus never said, but that suited their unending quest for more wealth and power. And voila, a divisive religion that persecutes people who are different and punishes those that don't obey.

    People kill peoples. They just make up reasons to justify it - religion, politics, racism, tribalism - it doesn’t matter. Saying religion is responsible for wars is as inaccurate as saying religion is responsible for charity. Humans are going to human.
