ON THE MISSION OF THE CHURCH AND THE RISK OF TERRORISM IN EUROPE

Abstract

Terrorism is basically characterized as a particular anti-social behaviour of people, individuals, as well as groups or states, publicly also called terror. Terrorism is neither a social, nor a political, nor a criminological phenomenon of the 21st century. Terror as a result of terrorism in a certain historical period surely is a logical product of particular social development. Therefore, the fight against the state's acts by the majority of society has become natural. Fight against the terror. Considering the historical significance of the activities of various Christian churches in the current European Union, it may be purposeful to increase the intensity of engagement by Christian churches in processes aimed at eliminating potential terrorist attacks. The paper explores some of the possible approaches to pursuing this initiative.
