Yup society is stuck in it's culture...they never accepted Islam as a way of life (which it is supposed to be) but accepted it as a different entity and hence can't seem to draw the line between their culture and religion...
I agree that some people in our country have mixed up both culture & religion. However, I think that a certain aspect of culture is to be blamed here. That is the unwillingness to read, many people do not study religion on their own from verified or even factual sources. Instead, they ask people or those self-proclaimed "scholars" who are just as ignorant of religion as they are of religious laws & values. This results in people getting misled, either intentionally or unintentionally. Pakistanis need to encourage self-study & critical thinking, & the government must provide them with valid sources for scholarly consensus & religious or historical text books.
Yup the mindsets I agree are slightly twisted (for some people NOT ALL)
Exactly, I didn't mean that the entire society has a twisted mindset either. As I understand it, a lot of these incidents relating to religious discrimination or abuse occur in rural areas or places with an uneducated populace. That just exemplifies the need for better education in the society.
If you look at the new books, there is alot of changes, I do not remember reading much about Islam in my younger cousins' books...It kind of is left hanging.
Really? Does this mean that they have already modified the curriculum? If so; that is good news. History must always be taught from an unbiased perspective.
TOTALLY AGREED!! 1stly, we need a good government! One that cares for the people and doesn't consume their money for their vacations!
Haha, I agree.
