Ahimsa.

Ahimsa is the Eastern Principle of non-violence.

God would not tell us to be non-violent if He was violent Himself.

Therefore God must be non-violent.

And all the passages in the scriptures which justify violence in the name of God are in error.

God is non-violent.

And He expects us to be non-violent also.
