Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists and many other religious sects have prayed for peace on a daily basis for thousands of years now.  How's that workin' for ya?  -

   The problem, of course, is that all of those prayers for peace are being cancelled out by the prayers for death and destruction made by OTHER believers!  ;)

Yes, it would seem God is little more than the manifestation of importance giving creed to un-evolved monkeys clinging to the vine of the religious horde that gives them license to act out their primal fears and aggressions on other perceived opposing (Their-Choice-Here) hordes. Create peace by not praying for another to be sent to hell through the practicing of such a fear based faith.
