Is religion a cursed blessing

Religion was meant to unite group of person to have one belief and common interest in the way of life. But instead it is creating diversity, war, lack of unity in the society. Individuals choosing their religion over the others. Seeing one religion to have more hierarchy over the other.

Religion is one of the reason why some countries are still backward, let me use Nigeria to site example. When I say that Nigeria was supposed to be one of the most developed countries in Africa and in the world at large I know what I am saying.

Nigeria is stagnant today because of the so called religion, now take a look at present government they are causing more harm than good to the country yet large number of Nigerians who are Muslim are still willing and ready to vote President tinubu in the coming 2027 election because he's a Muslim.

Another thing that keep a country stagnant is tribalism, and tribalism is another reason why Nigeria is still the way it is. I will use present tinubu to site example, the Yoruba people have seen that this man called tinubu has no vision for Nigeria and he doesn't have the capacity and the ability to rule Nigeria as a president, yet his tribe the Yoruba people still stood firm by him and  ready and willing to vote him again in the coming election.

The right religion is why some countries get ahead. Consider the former Christian religion of the USA, which is changing, and so the US is becoming weaker.

Depends on what one's religion preaches. If it preaches war then yes it is a cursed blessing. But if it preaches peace like Jesus did, in my opinion that's not a bad thing.

Yes. Jesus's true peace was peace between people and God, first, above everything else. Then it is peace between people and peoples. This can only be accomplished by making total war against Satan, so it looks like war and not peace sometimes.

However, as Jesus died on the cross, He said, "It is finished." He meant that the war against Satan was won. He won it by not bowing to any of Satan's temptations.

We don't understand, because we are so physically minded, that we don't realize that the whole universe is first a spiritual, moral operation before it is physical. And, we don't realize that God fills the whole universe. He says in the Old Testament, "Do I not fill heaven and earth," says the Lord? In the N.T., in Ephesians it is said about Jesus, that He arose "higher than the heavens, to fill the whole universe."

The reason we see wars, yet, is that God has prepared a certain number of souls to fill a certain number of people. God is giving these souls a chance to live, by allowing new people to be born, so they might find faith in Jesus and be saved. It sounds a bit strange to us, but God is the Ruler, and He is righteous in all He does. At the right time, God will send Jesus back... at the last day.

Whoever believes in Jesus salvation will be saved for eternal life. This believing is only secure in those who hear about Jesus, have faith in Him, and confess Him with their mouth.
