<br/><br/> "Armed conflicts in which religion, often accompanied by ethnic differences, plays a part have proliferated in recent decades in various parts of the world: Northern Ireland, the Balkans, Sri Lanka, India, Nigeria...So it is not Islamic terrorism alone which has raised the question as to whether religion tends to encourage violence rather than help overcome it and whether religion is not the source of, rather than the solution to, the problem of violence." (INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF THE RED CROSS) The author considers the question "where do the three 'prophetic' religions--Judaism, Christianity and Islam--stand with regard to repressive violence (as opposed to legitimate, political violence) and war?"
