Since god “knows all”, god obviously knows religion is one of the most divisive things for “god’s people”, it starts wars…etc., it in all reality kills innocent people.

Why doesn’t god prove to us it’s reality? Put an end to the suffering caused by not knowing.
If we knew for a fact god existed it would go a long way to end that suffering.
