Another way a religious riot can end

Life of Brian
Setting : in front of Monty Python building.
Rioters hold signs that say, "don't make fun of Jesus" and
"Life of Brian is Blasphemy"
Rioter 1: you know, God will punish these heathen for blasphemy.
Rioter 2: exactly! We should break their windows.
Rioter 1: yeah!
They both pick up stones and get ready to throw them.
Voice from Heaven: let the first without sin cast the first stone.
Rioter 1: woah! Did you hear that??
Rioter 2: dude! I think it was god!!!
Rioter 1: these guys insulted you,
lord!! We have to punish them.
Voice from Heaven:
But I say unto you, That you resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
Rioter 2: but we can't let them get away with this. We need revenge!
Voice from Heaven:
To me belongs vengeance, and recompense; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
Rioter 1: well gee. What can we do then?
Voice from Heaven:
If it be possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all men.
Rioter 1: oh, we'll that's not very exciting.
Rioter 2: I guess we should go home then.
Rioter 1: I guess so.
