I consider him and all of his distant types, like Maulana Tariq Jameel and Maulana falana and falana, as Jahils. Without any reasoning. Is that racist towards mullahs?
It is for people who leave their religion up to them. The issue has a similar logic to the idea that sparked this debate. The people seen harassing a woman in this video belong to a certain caste.. which automatically rings a bell in regards to a profession(even though many of them are not of that). Because of this people don't identify with it.
Now because of what the ones in the video did, suddenly these people can expect a backlash.. a hatred perhaps. Look at the responses on the thread itself.. and you can see the fallout.
The same goes for Mullahs in general. A lot of them may not at all hold any extremist ideas, but the stigma associated with them means we dont trust them anymore. However, there are more obvious cases which one can then sort out. For e.g. I have met Maulana T.J quite a few times and he is a wonderful person, even though I dont agree on 80% of matters with him. Yet, he is a gem compared to say Amir Liaqat(
not a Mullah, but one who exploits religion).. whom I would sacrifice to a rabid hog instantly. The same goes for the fat head of the CII, that man too deserves to be skinned and deboned to be fed to some nice animals.
And here is where the problem between the Mullah apologists and me starts.. they would rather arrest and put CII guy in an air conditioned room in the marriot.. whilst I want him and his likes culled. They are, as anything a social evil which needs not to be dealt with humanely but culled instantly. This includes their followers(
who refuse to back away from them) and the followers of many like them wherever they may exist. After all, what was done to Musalimah Kazzab and his followers?
Which brings us back to the idea of why then should we not give the same treatment to the people who were doing the act above? Well, for starters.. unlike the Mullah from whom 70% of the country pees in their clothes with the fear of their collective power and their supposed ability to decide who goes to heaven or hell.. these people have generally been marginalized all the time.. so if they come out after being instigated and wreak havoc.. they will also still be taken to task(
which they should be if there was any effective measure...public flogging as a start). At worse they'll riot again, unlike the Mullah who'll blow himself up as revenge at a L.E school.
It all sounds very extreme for the 21st century, but that depends on whether the nation itself has entered that day and age. After all, just as democracy cant work here until they have 5 or 6 cycles(or faster if you follow my signature).. the same way certain humane practices cannot be implemented immediately. Social engineering is the call of the day, not misguided compassion for all; learnt that the hard way.
