Religion: A Missing Component of Professional Military Education Doctor Thomas G Matyok PKSOI Paper by the US Army War College, Peacekeeping and Stability Operations Institute, US Army War College Press "There is little reason to romanticize religion and the potential roles it can play in peacebuilding. The historic record is clear. Religion has often been animated to justify the worst kinds of horrors.

Osama Bin Laden used religion to justify mass murder, and preachers such as Jerry Falwell routinely suggested the link between terrorism waged against Americans and God’s wrath for a society wandering away from Christian values."
