  This book, astonishing and terrifying in its revelations, is the first of its kind to examine the role of religion in Northern Ireland by talking directly to those involved, to the chuchmen and the terrorists. It shows how religious conditioning and history lead inexorably to political violence. It asks Roman Catholic and protestant paramilitaries how they can reconcilemurder with their Christian convictions, and what the men of God should - or could - do to stop the killing.
