chosen: Many of the early religions had a foundation in tribalism and warfare which shaped how they viewed their gods. This often meant promoting violence to bring about the will of their gods in order to gain advantages in conflicts. Throughout history, religions have continued to reinforce traditional views on violence, providing religious leaders and congregations with ideological justifications for violent practices. In some cases, extreme interpretations of certain religious views can encourage individuals and groups to take extreme actions of violence and intolerance in order to further their religious or political goals.
