Violence (original) (raw)
Violence is an intrinsic part of human nature and society, often manifested in various forms such as domestic, religious, physical, psychological, sexual, and gender-based violence. It serves as a tool for power, control, and fear, deeply rooted in historical and contemporary contexts across different cultures and religions. Definitions from authoritative sources, such as the WHO, and references to religious scriptures highlight that while no religion advocates for violence, the manipulation of religious texts has led to its justification in various conflicts. The continuing prevalence of violence presents serious implications for public health and social stability.
