Ideas Vs Co-Existence

Submitted by brohi (Pakistan), Mar 26, 2008 at 04:13

With all due respects Gisvas….or may be Bakvas Jee (I apologize if I'm incorrectly spelling your good name- may be this is due to the flexibility you are extending to your readers)!

You say "Hindus keep changing their faiths and beliefs - that is good."

Wow….What a religion? I think you don't believe in Hanuman Jee , Kaali Mata Jee, RAM Jee and Bhagwan !...you must be a follower of Rawann …..Is it correct?

" How would you, as a muslim, look upon a person who says he is proud to be a mental slave of some idea or belief or book or propaganda? Will you be able to have an honest fruitful dialogue with him?"

"Arabic allah and islam are certainly of the sadist-cynical category."

I wonder if abusing your opponent's beliefs is your honesty and your so called honest fruitful dialogue!

Is this what you have learnt from the great Indian civilization! Alas !

Perhapes you have not been rude to your opponent only, rather you have been rude to this forum also! However, remember one principle ; not all have the same ideas. Opinions differ! Not all the ideas can be considered. One has to be civilized enough to choose one without hurting anyone feelings. Instead of abusing or being rude to your opponent you have to prove 'Yours is the best argument" on the subject. I don't comprehend what flexibility you are talking about !!!!???

You should know what you are arguing for , what you are trying to achieve by abusing and the negative criticism. Please before coming to this forum learn how to control your emotions and your biases , and prepare yourself to accept when others have good ideas. All you need is to approach the argument with open mind.

Anyway , I don't understand the logic and reason; why you would have a problem if some one wishes to practice his or her religion and live their lives according to their beliefs. What goes from you ! Are you the liberator of whole mankind…..!!!!!???

I could not find a single state in the world which prohibits minorities from practicing their religion and implementing their religious dogmas on themselves.

Be it UN Charter, Israel's Ch. II article 13 of the constitutional draft, article 27 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights,1966, Article 12 and 13 of Iran's Constitution, Amendment-1 of the USA Constitution, report of Alliance of Civilizations 13 November 2006, article 19 -27 of Pakistan Constitution and the English and Polish Constitutional Laws.

Whether the practices , the tenets and the code of belief are right or wrong; as long as it does not materially breaches any law or any individual's rights, why someone would be intolerant , antagonistic and rude .

Please we had enough from assaults and reactions and destructions. One should not misuse his/her time, efforts and intellect on creating intolerant, fanatic and uncompromising society.

You are talking about flexibility and the rights with a Pakistani, astonishing ! …ahhhhh big joke …..!!!

I think you forgot your flexibility when Pakistan freed Spy (Kashmir Singh-who admitted in India that he was an Indian spy in Pakistan) even after 35 years and did not execute him even after court's conviction but India tortured and killed an innocent cricket lover from Pakistan ( Khalid Mehmood) on the false allegations of espionage, who simply lost his passport…….this is your respect for human beings , your culture, your civilization " Mardaangi" , your flexibility and honesty …..

I believe an Indian should not need to get into war of words on these sensitive issues unless you have sound arguments to convince your readers. You have plenty of fanatics, unlike us. Shev Seena, Bhal Thakre and Narinder Moody are good examples to expose you to the world. Pakistan protects your Munders even after demolishing hundreds of Mosques (including Baburi Mosque ) and Churches in India.

My message to you would be don't be a psycho and practice the peacefull CO-EXISTENCE and respect the views of your opponent …..this will guarantee you peace of mind and this will defeat the narrow-mindedness and religious fanaticism in you….it does not matter whether you are a Muslim , Christian , Jew , and Hindu or belong to any other religion.
