There is a great deal of popular belief in the connection between
religious extremism and terrorism. There are also numerous
statistical analyses that reject that connection. Upon a deeper
analysis, however, both of these approaches are
oversimplifications. To adequately answer the question of whether
there is a significant causal relationship between organizational
religions and terrorism, it is necessary to take a closer and more
critical look at the ideologies and practices of both religious
practitioners and terrorists. It is important to focus on the
causality of the relationship, because, if there is no causal
relationship between religion and terrorism, then removing
adherence to religion will do nothing to ameliorate the problem of
terrorism. The Root of All Evil? Religious Perspectives on
Terrorism conducts this kind of analysis.
