Hmmmmm...

Has there ever been an enormous list of all the evils and injustices commited in the name of religion/faith compiled anywhere? This would surely be extremely helpful in countless situations.

This is pretty good, thanx.

I was just wondering if the secular community had ever compiled such a list.

There's a big difference

There's a big difference between injustices/wars done because of religion, and injustices/wars done in the name of religion. That list would be things done because of a difference in belief, a proper religious war. However, almost every war, battle or injustice whether started for religious purposes or not is carried out in at least one god's name and often with the same god on both sides.

 I feel like such an apologetic saying this.

I'm looking for a list that would encompass all of that.
