Jonathan Sacks speaks about the return of religious violence in the 21st century, which, he argues, is an era of “de-secularization.” He also discusses, among other topics, the “sibling rivalry” among Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, why Islam has lately become the source of so much religious violence, and the role played by digital communication in the resurgence of fundamentalism.
