“Unlike its Western counterpart, the Orthodox thinking about collective violence and its justification is less convoluted and more attuned to a primeval logic of conflict resolution. Its glaring doctrinal vagueness in offering a theory in the Western sense is compensated by phenomena of concealed expressions of primitivism and recidivism that are vulnerable to a most pristine mechanism of conflict resolution – the sacrificing of the scapegoat on the platform of a dyadic system of justice.” - Dr. Marian Gh. Simion
