Chapter 1


Chapter One - A Religious World In Turmoil
Chapter One - A Religious World In Turmoil

Four small children sob as the body of their mother lowered into a freshly dug grave. She is another tragic victim claimed by the long nightmare of terrorist bombings that continue to blight the face of Northern Ireland.


In Belfast, a young Roman Catholic girl is lashed to a post and mercilessly beaten by an angry knot of men. Dozens of people watch impassively from their windows, making no attempt to rescue her from her enraged tormentors.


On the outskirts of Tripoli, Lebanon, a band of gunmen order 25 Moslem travelers to evacuate a bus. With no warning they open fire with a submachine gun and twelve innocent victims are cut down in the fusillade of bullets.


In Rome, the Pope reaffirms church’s age-old stand on use of birth-control devices as millions of people around the world continue to suffer from hunger, malnutrition and disease.


In Saudi Arabia, the government bans the use of contraceptives following a decree from the World Moslem League that “birth control was invented by the enemies of Islam.”


Religion: Boon or Bane?

To the millions of people around world, such religious practices can be (and are) a definite hazard to life and health. For instance, the Hindu veneration of the sacred cow certainly does little to help the plight of millions of malnourished people living on the Indian subcontinent. Nor does their ancient religious caste system. In recent times "untouchables" have been beaten for attempting to satisfy their thirst from an upper-caste temple well.


Or consider the negative impact Chairman Mao's revolutionary revival had on the people of the Far East. Millions of Chinese were enslaved in a system right out of the pages of Orwell's 1984. In many quarters, Mao was (and still is) virtually worshiped as a revolutionary demigod; his little red book became the Chinese Bible. Many a militant Communist was imbued with a quasi-religious "hellfire and brimstone" zeal, and some were more than ready to take up the sword in a holy crusade against the "decadent nations of Western capitalism."
