Judaism and Christianity - War violence and pacifism: Encyclopedia - Violence in sports

Violence in sports involves intentional aggressive violence. Competitive sports, such as football, basketball, and baseball may involve aggressive tactics, but actual violence in sports falls outside the boundaries of good sportsmanship.

Messianic Judaism is any of a group of loosely related religious movements, all claiming a connection with Judaism, and all of which consider Jesus to have been the Messiah.

If a people are being suppressed violently and brutally by an organization (say led by a dictator) the extreme pacifist view from the inside would be to not oppose the dictator violently, and from the outside would be not to support military opposition to the dictator. However, this leads to a potential paradox. While it is true that military opposition to the dictator would result in violence, much violence is already being done by the dictator.
