Religious Terrorism

Religious Terrorism is different from religion it self. It is an act of terrorism that uses religion as a mask and a horse to reach its destination. The use of Religion legitimizes acts of terrorism by the offender group due to the silting of the understanding of the scriptures. This condition does not only give a bad image to religion, especially Islam, it also has implications of discrimination against Muslims primarily when associated with international policies concerning counter terrorism.

Religious Terrorism

This research departs from the phenomenon of widespread acts of violence with religious nuances that often occur in Indonesia. A negative stigma is often addressed to the Muslim community. In this context, moderation narrative of Indonesian Islam published by the Ministry of Religion through the printed media Republika Newspaper is essential to reduce and counteract the issues of radicalism and religious terrorism. The results indicate that the media takes a role in constructing narrative news about the moderation conception of Indonesian Islam from the perspective of the Ministry of Religion, so that it becomes a presentation of information and public opinion. After being analyzed, the moderation conception of Indonesian Islam includes: (1) Islam rahmatan lil-alamin; (2) Islam that promotes openness, brotherhood, and benefit; (3) Islam which is based on tolerance, justice, and balance; (4) Islam which is comprehensively understood; (5) Islam which is not radical or extreme. Keywords: Discourse Analysis; Print media; Narrative of Islamic Moderation.

What is striking about the World Trade Center assault and many other recent acts of religious terrorism is that they have no obvious military goal. … They are a kind of perverse performance of power meant to ennoble the perpetrators' views of the world and to draw us into their notions of cosmic war.

Violent Political Action

Researchers have found consistently that religion reduces criminal behavior. Yet rising levels of political violence are frequently attributed to a new wave of religious terrorism. Our study seeks to reconcile this apparent discrepancy by studying the attitudes of people living in 34 African nations. Using data from the Afrobarometer survey and mixed modeling, we examine the influence of individual and collective religiosity for shaping civic engagement and willingness to engage in political violence. While individual religiosity decreases support for violent political action, collective religiosity increases it. The effects of religiosity are the same for Muslims and Christians and the country religious context minimally affects residents’ civic engagement and interest in violent political behavior. Our study underscores the importance of the theoretical and empirical distinction between individual and collective religiosity and offers insight into how civic engagement can be a pathway through which religion shapes support for political violence.
