Absolute pacifism
Conditional pacifism
As a Quaker, I believe that violence in any form is wrong
There is no cause or justification strong enough to give enough reason to harm another human being – the dignity of human rights is too sacred
God teaches that peace is very important in the Bible, but the Bible also contains instances where God appears to allow violence, so it can be justified in some instances
Jesus taught that we should be peacemakers – but also that Christians should stand up for the lowly. This can sometimes justify violence.
I'm a humanist– I believe that peace is the ideal and should always be upheld but that there are some instances where it can be justified to start a conflict, like if a country is committing human rights violations.
Jesus spoke specifically about putting down your swords – his teachings had strong pacifist ideas so that is why I follow a pacifist view
I'm not religious at all – but I do believe that human life is so important. It's too important to harm it – ever. No matter the cause or justification.
Violence in thoughts should always be discouraged – any form of violence, as small as a microaggression, should not happen
Because of my belief in pacifism, I believe that war of any kind is wrong – there are always, always other ways
I'm an atheist, so I don't really think a whole lot about how any god might want us to act in the case of violence. But I do believe there are times where it can be justified – but peace is the ideal and should be upheld where possible.
I believe that just war theory is effective in trying to figure out whether or not violence is ever justified
