Reader comment on item: The Evil Isn't Islam

Submitted by Ranjith Silva (Sri Lanka), Jul 25, 2003 at 08:25

I consider myself as one of the best people to submit a comment after reading many of your views for and against. I am a free thinker and philosopher in nature.

My country is having terrorist activities, many many, funded by muslims, catholics, hindus and buddhists. All are claiming their reason as justifiable and according to law.

Almost all fights are initiated by powerful countries and they are funding even now. Locals are helping the fighting elements for their benefit. Some sacrifice their lives as rituals but do not understand the real cause and who get the benefit.

Tamil Tigers make suicide efforts, while the church get the benefit.

So I consider that religion has nothing to do with these fight, but the ethics and people's wisdom is what matters. All teachers have advocated peace and harmony.

Any religious man or woman want to fight, he does it. When organised in numbers it is a war. Good business for weapon manufacturers.

The religions are not to be blamed, but the current leaders and their follwers are to be corrected and educated to think as every person, irrespective of country and religion, is same and while extend our love and care to every other, as we do to our brothers and sisters in same family.

Do remember we all are same in colour of blood.
