[mukto-mona] Womens Day.

All oppression starts when the other party is economically and fiscally weak. Our lofty dream of emancipation for women will only be a reality if they are educated and economically viable in the society. Although Jesus was born in Nazareth but Christianity thrived in Europe and the Industrial Revolution took place in Europe which brought prosperity for all. The Christianity is very much related to Jesus but not related to the Middle Eastern culture. Therefore whoever accepted Christianity did not go through any predominant cultural exercise as the converted Muslims went through. A vicious dogmatic approach is necessary to become a Muslim which imprisons the free thinking process. Muhammad's Islam was not for the entire world as it's claimed by the overenthusiastic Islamic preachers. Muhammad was sent for the people of Mecca and its vicinity. Therefore the philosophy of Muhammad was entirely based on Arab culture and it was very normal and logical. But when Islam was transported to the non Arabs it accompanied the essence of Arabian cultural notions. The spirit of Islam was enveloped in 7^th century Arab culture and the converts were brainwashed and frightened to accept it as it was brought to them as fear is an essential ingredient of this faith. This is the potent poison of cultural Islam which has brought conflict in many societies.

 This oppression on women in Islam has been compounded by many factors such as lack of education, poverty and above all a religious undertone. The situation is not going improve unless the society is enlightened enough to understand the essentials of the individual human rights and it's going to take time. Like any other thought process Islam is also one of them and we must not shy away from criticizing its flaws. There is no heaven and therefore nothing comes from the heavens. If we can change a national constitution we can also bring changes to a religion. The stupid claim that Islam is a complete code of life is completely an ignorant notion. In the ever changing vistas of life no religion can be accepted as a complete code of life.

In Mukto Mona we have the high audacity to claim freedom from the religious dogmas. We are at war with anyone who professes regimentation of the ever free human spirit. Let the mullahs and the dogmatists who are lured by the lies of eternal life in the so called heavens with multiple women enjoy their foolishness. Let them call us heretics, infidels and murtaads but we don't worship darkness and know the value of freedom.
