Thinking about religion and violence / Professor Jason C. Bivins.

Bivins, Jason, (lecturer.). Teaching Company. (Added Author).

Summary:

In a world where violence in the name of religion can impact so many other people's lives, it's critical to understand the intersection between religion and violence. What's required is not to see religion as inherently violent but to recognize that the violence associated with religious groups and communities is worth exploring and interrogating. These lectures examine the roots of this phenomenon and guide you toward more informed ways of thinking about it. You'll consider how faiths like Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism view concepts like human sacrifice, martyrdom, and penitence; the ways religious violence can be directed toward specific races and genders; concepts like heresy, witch hunting, and demonology; and more. You'll probe complex ideas and concepts that will help you fashion your own interpretations, such as 'religion, ' 'Other-ing, ' and 'cult.'
