From Farabi to ISIS: The Virus of Faith is Indeed Real!

Interesting article, but in my view it is partially true. The virus of killing is inherent to human nature. Mankind is far older than religion, and instinct of killing others (those who are different for this or that reason). If not religion, some other issues will come. In the name of equality many were killed. The struggle for socialism took a lot of lives. Nazis did kill millions not only for their religious background. Today’s drive for democracy by Bush or Obama killed and is still killings thousands across the glove. Why? It is only because a group thinks them exclusive, better than the rest. I always tell my kids, you can add an apple and a banana. The result will always be an apple and a banana. Each has their specific identity and property. Unless we, especially so-called civilized world, understand this simple truth and refrain from imposing our way of live to others, it will happen forever. Some will cut throat, others will fire or bury you with democratic bombs. I don’t know if it matters how someone will be killed – by beheading or sitting on electric chair. These things matters for those who are left behind, but for those who were killed it is all the same. So we should talk about not only about virus of religion, but also about virus of democracy, supremacy etc.Civilization is also relative. What is good in one society, might not be that in another. Only respect to other well established visions and ways of life can partially decrease the heat.
