No. Doesn't matter if it has religion or not. People will always want other people's stuff, and that causes conflict.

Thank you, sir.  I appreciate your candid response. 

Out of curiosity, does the existence of conflict have to be negative?  Can humanity create a world that acknowledges our differences but allows us to engage those differences in a non-violent, open-minded way.  Is the present condition of humanity ultimately programmed into them, or can they choose to be different and construct a more peaceful world if they wanted to; is our mindset the main barrier to peace?

It's programmed in.
