Why do humans kill each other over religion? Just curious?

Some people are just born bad there's no explanation for it.

I think it's an alien recognition system. People tend to divide into groups and hate other groups.
This eventually leads to a banal struggle for power and money.

People of one religion seeing others with different beliefs which also claim to be the absolute truth remind them of the absurdity and falsity their own beliefs, and from that conflict and genocide inevitably happens.

they don't
the men kill each other and then the women remaining are fertilized more often by men who win
this passes on the genes of men who wish to fight and also are better at fighting
the religion is just an excuse, like everything

It is relatively rare. Most wars are over land, resources and elites trying to stay in power.
But some people like to kill. They just need to find some reason / excuse to do it.
Killing purely for religion can be motivated by promise of eternal paradise or other benefits. It is not only a huge devotion, but also a nice reward.

I agree with others- the desire for violence/ revenge/ retribution/ aquistion of resources is already there. But, people use religion to justify it to themselves plus, groom other people to do it. A bit like a 'get out of jail card'. My God supports what I'm doing- type deal.

Another fadeaway thread about religion that's going to be popular lol.
Tell people God said it.they will do anything.
Any atrocity in gods name will be forgiven after all.

Sounds logic, but the genes of the survivers could also be the genes of the cowards.
A contrary aspect: Death sentence sorted out the genes of killers and psychopaths because normally young man were executed before they were able to reproduce. Human sacrifices were the origin of death sentence, so this is contribution of religion to the human domestication.
Ig it's the idea that after doing something for their god, they're owed a reward 
Humans are just like any other animal. We will fight for resources and ward off anyone who is "different". Religion is a way to facilitate that, nothing more. If religion was not here, we would fight over something else.
