The nature of the religious atrocity or crisis is diverse in different ages and crucial in several geographical continents. In present age, religious fundamentalism or fanaticism is the modern form of religious crisis (terror); it not only kills the innocent people for the sake of religion, it dominates over other’s culture, tradition, and identity, with political purposes.
