In my opinion it has never been about religion even if it has played a central part. its peoples priorities that are twisted, as you say people are multifarious, a person is not made from a single concept. At an early age I considered my self a christian, but i priorities my own desires over the ones preached by the book, i had premarital sex, i stole and did a lot of other stuff that wasn't seen as "right" according to the church because even if christianity ment something to me at that point so did a lot of other things. Just like my old friend from uni would offer me alcohol at his house even though he was a muslim I prioritzed the girl over the book (and the snickers i stole was **** delicious). The people who are at fault are the ones who prioritize hate and violence over love and compassion, regardless of whatever other personal beliefs they might have.
