The language doesn't leave much to the imagination:
"Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the prophet who represents God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged."
or
"A holy man’s daughter who loses her honor by committing fornication and thereby dishonors her father also, shall be burned to death."
or
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death."
or
"Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves."
or
"Anyone who blasphemes God’s name must be stoned to death by the whole community."
For those who believe in the literal interpretation of religious texts - of course they're going to commit acts of violence in the name of their religion. They're basically commanded to do so in no uncertain terms. I mean, all those passages are from the Bible but still...
The Bible tells Christians to kill people in the name of God? Say it isn't so.
