The twentieth century has bequeathed to us two contrary insights: 1) the pervasive character of violence, and 2) the moral and strategic possibilities of nonviolent action. We have a choice between retaliation and reconciliation. Today the Western world confronts a religiously inspired terrorist enemy. Many stereotype all Muslims as potential terrorists, oblivious of the rich faith of historic Islam that is capable of tolerance and respect.Our ethical dilemma is: 1) How can a Christian bring himself to commit violence, advocate or defend it, and remain true to his faith? 2) How can a Christian refuse to use all means necessary to aid in relieving human misery and still be true to his faith? If we opt for nonviolence, how do we repay evil with good without becoming party to evil? If we opt for violence, how can we overcome evil with evil and avoid greater evil in turn?
