1a) Okay so i am not so good at English skills or actually literature
skills in this case, so while i can't figure out what the whole argument
is about all together from what i know of Gandhi's civil disobedience i
do agree that to create a ultimate good change you must do it civilly
and respectfully; but i disagree with total peace as there comes a time
when the silver tongue turns to lead and must be put behind the Golden
heart to bring forth the change with action such as fighting. Now this
form of fighting could best be done in a civil manner of honor and
respect for life of both you, your allies, and the enemies you face. A
match can be done with respect such as the form of fencing in France.
War is not always as uncivil as it is seemed to be but it is still as
deadly as it will appear to be.
1b) Also pertaining the use of his saying "passive resistance, that is, soul force, is matchless."(page 125, 3rd full paragraph) yes soul force is unmatchable but it is not always passive as the heart is closer to the soul then the mind's will. The power of the soul force can encourage and inspire people to come to arms such as Liu Bei a kingdom ruler of china's three kingdom period; his soul force kept him to the will of drawing arms for the protection of the people of the Han dynasty as well as to the dynasty its self. That also is soul force being set into motion but he wasn't passive. Another good example of soul force can be seen in the amine shows of Gundam Seed & Gundam 00 as the protagonist fight to end the fighting of others with all of their strength and power even of soul, as well as going as far as to become the target of all as they are seen as terrorist staining their reputations but yet enabling their soul force' will to transpire.
2) Historically Gandhi's influence can best be seen working as in its influence of the mind of people, opening peoples eyes to a way of finding temporary peace with out resulting to violence ,such as the woman's movements of the late 18th through early 20th centuries of America and in different regions of the world such as Britain and France.
3)I do not see Gandhi's passive resistance working in realms of religious differences, and ultimate peace of the world and self. As Gandhi is not even held up to a god form but rather what he truly was as a great motivational thinker and Great leader as a few titles he could be given, he is not God nor is he of a false gods rank. False gods are given much respect, and authority with power in the rank of being elevated beyond mere human. Even looking into the Bible for an example of Gods rank is in the passage of Issiah 55:8-13.
8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
and your ways are not My ways.”
This is the LORD’s declaration.
9 “For as heaven is higher than earth,
so My ways are higher than your ways,
and My thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For just as rain and snow fall from heaven
and do not return there
without saturating the earth
and making it germinate and sprout,
and providing seed to sow
and food to eat,
11 so My word that comes from My mouth
will not return to Me empty,
but it will accomplish what I please
and will prosper in what I send it to do.”

12 You will indeed go out with joy
and be peacefully guided;
the mountains and the hills will break into singing before you,
and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.
13 Instead of the thorn bush, a cypress will come up,
and instead of the brier, a myrtle will come up;
it will make a name for Yahweh
as an everlasting sign that will not be destroyed
and be peacefully guided;
the mountains and the hills will break into singing before you,
and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.
