Religious Conflict

Religious conflict refers to tensions and disagreements that arise between different religious groups, often stemming from differing beliefs, values, and practices. In contexts of religious diversity, these conflicts can manifest in various forms, from social tension to violent confrontations. Differences in interpretation of sacred texts, cultural practices, and historical grievances can exacerbate misunderstandings. While diverse beliefs can foster dialogue and enrichment, they can also lead to exclusion and hostilities if not managed with respect and understanding. Promoting interfaith dialogue and tolerance is essential in mitigating conflicts and fostering peaceful coexistence among diverse religious communities.
