Discrimination sucks big time!

"But what is a Jew? It's a man whom other men take for a Jew." Jean-Paul Sartre Which means someone is Jewish if the world regards him a Jew. This is a very discriminatory statement. And I'm not saying it because I'm friends with a couple of Jews. I don't believe in discrimination of any kind & that particular statement sounds judgmental. Anyway, I still like Jean-Paul Sartre. I just don't agree with him on this thing. Another man who had issues with Jews was Hilter. He has been painted by the world as a monster & no one ever bothered to highlight what he did for animals. He introduced animal rights for the 1 st time. I'm not saying what he did to Jews was right. I'm just saying that his good deeds have never been highlighted. Then we have some people over here who can't help raising such annoying questions: 'Kya Shia jannat mein jaye ga?' What kind of a question is this? Few days ago, I also narrated a story in which one crazy man is all set to kill Ahemdis in a particular area. He has made a vow that he would kill each & every Ahmedi in the vicinity. We have folks who can't approve of humans just because of their beliefs. This approach is very sickening, because religion is not a source of discrimination. And it's clearly written in the Quran: 'The judgment is God's alone. He relates the truth; & He is the Best of deciders.' The thing is…we shouldn't waste our time judging people. It's not our job. But yes, I have seen discrimination almost everywhere. The bad news is that it starts off from your home. Moreover, highly idiotic questions are raised by those who think they are much above everyone. They think they have the right to judge other peoples' faith. They don't mind supporting terrorists, but they do have problem with illegitimate kids & it's okay if these babies are killed on a daily basis. I personally know people who just think they have the right to look down on those who don't belong to their class. And when they talk to their servants, it seems as if they are talking to slaves. It's all very ugly. And it's true people hate, because they love unreasonably. It's actually a very vast topic & it's not possible for me to cover each & every aspect. I just want to talk about gays & how badly they are hated that in some cases, they even commit suicide. We need to educate ourselves a little. The thing that control sexual functions in gays is more like females. Please spare them the torture. But who am I talking to? Even when a straight person commits suicide cause of mental illness, they are all set him & keep weighing his level of faith. . Read Full Post
