2024/2025

Give two reasons why most religious people are against terrorism. [2 marks] - ANSWERS-Terrorism is
indiscriminate in causing suffering

-innocent people and civilians are targeted

-often results in death, which is against the sanctity of life, no religion promotes terrorism

-some are pacifists and do not believe in any violence

-not loving your neighbour, scaring and hurting people is the wrong way to resolve issues

Explain two CONTRASTING religious beliefs in contemporary British society about pacifism. In your
answer you should refer to the main religious tradition of Great Britain and one or more other religious
traditions. [4 marks] - ANSWERS-religious believers support the idea of the sanctity of life, God gives life-
only God should take it so it is wrong to fight in a war in which people will be killed



-Some believe that war is the sometimes the best option and would not support being a pacifist

-they would fight in a 'Just War' or fight in order to stop genocide taking place



-Pacifist Christians believe they are following the example of Jesus, 'turn the other cheek', 'do not kill' -
some Christian pacifists assist the war effort in non-combat roles, Quakers are pacifists

-Jesus taught 'Blessed are the peacemakers'



-just war may justify fighting, sometimes it is better to fight to save lives and protect a country or way of
life (eg WW2), etc.



Explain two reasons why some religious people support the just war theory. Refer to sacred writings or
another source of religious belief and teaching in your answer. [5 marks] - ANSWERS-Sometimes to do
nothing would be to allow injustices to continue

-it may be seen as the lesser of two evils

, -it may be seen as right for religious believers to fight if there is a just reason for a war, such as it has a
just cause eg to defend their country, has a good intention eg to overthrow an evil dictator

-is the last resort eg after sanctions and diplomacy have failed

-the good achieved will outweigh the evil and peace restored

-Many Christians are prepared to fight for their country or religion against evil, many stories in the Old
Testament of wars promote heroes in battles eg David against Goliath, St Augustine and Thomas Aquinas
developed the criteria for the Just War theory

-Jesus used violence in the Temple to throw out those who were exploiting the pilgrims, etc.



'It is wrong for any country to have weapons of mass destruction.'

Evaluate this statement. In your answer you:

• should give reasoned arguments in support of this statement

• should give reasoned arguments to support a different point of view

• should refer to religious arguments

• may refer to non-religious arguments

• should reach a justified conclusion.

[12 marks] [SPaG 3 marks] - ANSWERSSup:

-Christians are encouraged to work towards peace, following the peaceful example of Jesus would rule
out weapons of mass destruction

-If used, weapons of mass destruction may kill thousands of innocent people and wildlife and cause
immense suffering, potential for massive civilian casualties against the sanctity of life, 'do not kill', 'love
your neighbour'.

-weapons of mass destruction disobey the just war criteria (proportionality)

Dif:

-nuclear weapons have proved to be a deterrent and have helped to keep the peace

-they could be used as a last resort in the most serious of circumstances, especially if they prevent
further suffering, etc.

-countries that possess weapons of mass destruction can be considered to be safer than those without.



Give two ways that religious believers can work for peace. [2 marks] - ANSWERS-Accept peace on a
personal level between individuals eg no hatred, no discrimination, no retaliation, living in a peaceful
way.
