Faith and Fighting
How much is Religion to blame for all the fighting in the world?
Edward Canfor-Dumas confronts a Muslim and a Zoroastrian – Maajid Nawaz, of the Quilliam Foundation, and Jehangir Sarosh, of the World Council of Religions for Peace – with the worst of Religion’s legacy: violence, war, links to power and privilege, oppression of women, a blind eye turned to the likes of slavery and apartheid.
He also confronts an Atheist – Peter Cave, of the British Humanist Association – with the best of Religion’s legacy: peace initiatives, changed lives, concern for the poor and victimized, an end to the likes of apartheid and slavery.
