Try Buddhism. How many Buddhists have ever started a war?
Anyway, you're blaming an institution for the evils that people do. People don't need religion to be violent, any excuse will do. It's just that for some people religion is a convenient justification, while for people like you religion is a convenient scapegoat.
I remember you stood up for me when my religious beliefs were attacked. Am I so different from everyone else that it's alright for me to have faith but it's not okay for anyone else? I won't endorse that. I have the God given privelage to believe what I want to believe, and so does everyone else.
