Religions in themselves are not violent. Religions preach JUSTICE. Violence is the result of INJUSTICE. When a King, Queen, Emperor, Dictator misleads his/her subjects and does acts of injustice to other people/nations, they retaliate-the result is violence. When an individual commits acts of injustice to others, violence is the result. The last holy Prophet is reported to have said that One hour in the execution of justice is worth seventy years of prayers, Or he said something like this.This has been quoted by famous philosopher Ruskin in the beginning of his lecture on Justice. It is we who lose temper and cut the throats of others or invade other nations and subject the weaker nations to cruelty, oppression and slavery.
