hey Birkibrisli
But I agree with you that people should report those imams who preach hate in the name of islam.And I also agree that if people find it difficult to live in a western country because of their religious morals then they should leave and go somewhere they will be happier.But sometimes there might be nowhere for them to go.That i guess is their problem though.
thats a whole big question, which to be honest i didnt come to an answer yet.
a canadian professor i ve seen once said: integration does not exist, it is just the left wing word for assimilation.
i dont really know where my borders lie.
he gave an example of a 12 year old girl of some kind of religion which was simply excellent in math, physics etc. university education seemed a oneway street. suddenly she was brought out of schoohl to marry. he was a canadian citizen he couldnt accept that in his own country. on the other hand people should be allowed to keep their religion, customs and beliefs. or else is violation of human rights.
so i guess the answer is not clear.
nevertheless, as i guest one should respect the place that accepts him.
what makes young people who have everything to live for blow themselves up in order to make a point?What drives them to this kind of desperation?....These people's grivances are not religious,they are political.It is too easy to reduce everything to simply religion.
ofcource it is political.
but the compination with religion is more explosive.
in one way if someone dies for freedom or democracy...he is giving his life for something better, for some others.
if one believes that by killing and getting killed he will get the rewards in some other life, then... that is even egoistic.
thats why the west is volunarable. these people dont care if they die.
thats why the west should realise that bombs are not helping, only a better life.
