I just cannot help but think that most of mankind is still in the prehistoric era when I hear the uproar on the publishing of cartoons and making paintings etc of prophets & gods and goddesses.Ok..someone has made them..rebuke him/her. Tell them politely that its not in order and thats it. Is Prophet Mohammed so small..or are the Gods and Goddesses so weak that a few paintings and cartoons will tarnish their image. COME ON people..we have reached a time with all this development/progress that we let go of our medieval mindsets and forget our insecurities. Our religions will be more radiant and inviting if we make them all encompassing and tolerant.
The so called clashes of civilisations,in my view, shows nothing more than the immense weakness of masses of people who have unsurpassable inferiority complexes. I believe that the time has come for the world to unite against these fanatics and boycott them from all social activities. (which is difficult) Maybe all that we need is faith today in a singular religion..Call it "HUMANITY" devoid of any names of Gods/deities/idols etc. Lets just be HUMANS who feel, sense, see, hear and think. THINK.........Have Compassion & Love!
