I thought that, but it seems not all.I thought all Religions taught loving your neighbour?
The "big-five religions" do, and many of the smaller ones as well, so I'm not sure which you're referring to. But a word of caution, namely that we have seen all too often secular groups that will use religion as a "tool" to try and gain support and legitimacy, thus converting the more gullible into their cause.it seems there are religions that do not teach ''love your neighbour as yourself''. then what is ideal to these religions if not global peace?

The OP was about what the religions teach, in your case the Torah. Which from my readings include 'Rabbi Akiva says that loving another as you love yourself is “a cardinal principle in the Torah.” And the great sage Hillel even declared, “This is the entire Torah; all the rest is commentary.”'The ideal state in my religion is to be able to sit without any concerns whatsoever and study Torah.
