Let's be careful
by abc on Jul 26, 2008 11:13 PM

Let's not blame muslims for all evil. There are good muslims and they need to be protected in this times of chaos and panic. They are just like the rest of us. They like to get up, go to work, come back and have dinner with the family. They don't think of or participate in terror activities. They should not be harmed. I know my message will make some people mad but trust me, I'm as upset as anyone here. I hope the criminals behind this act get caught soon. There should be an open Q&A session with them in public to understand why they did this. We really need to understand why they are doing what they are doing.

So why do good muslims not oppose these acts in open?

Because they fear isolation from the rest of the muslims if they spoke their mind. If they are isolated from other muslims, will hindus accept them? and will hindus accept them just as they are..i.e. beef eating, namaaz following muslims? We need to accept the good muslims just as they are..We can't ask them to be like us in their clothing, food habits or religious beliefs. but we do. From a corner in our heart we actually want them to be just like us..may be become Hindus..

Just accept them as they are and invite them to join your social actitivies. Give them a social structure where they can have a social life and they will not fear isolation from their current social circle.

Opposing your own people in public requires that there be a supportive group to find acceptance. It is the same reason why so m
