520 0 _aThe Crusades, The Conquest of the Americas, U.S. Slavery, The Jewish Holocaust; mention of these events evokes a variety of responses from Christians, including guilt, defensiveness, and bewilderment. Given such a tangled historical relationship to aggression and injustice, how can Christians answer those who argue that our faith is inherently violent, or that Christian doctrine inevitable lead to sacrifice, conquest, and war? This book provides "specific responses to these arguments. Divided into histories, practices, and theologies, the essays explore what one contributor calls just peacemaking. The contributors explore the history of Christian violence and advocate the need for an uncompromised biblical theory in our search for peace".
