Re: [ALOCHONA] Bangladesh has record number of child brides

Mr. Raisuddin...I couldn't agree with you more. I believe in practicing my faith in privacy, and also believe that whenever we see radical fractions sprout out to make religion a matter of politics, advance regressive ideas, and thwart the rights of others, people need to come out of their private lives and defend the sanctity of their faith, whether they are muslims, christians, jews, hindus, buddhists, or even fire-worshippers. Your faith is yours, and only yours, and radicalism has no place in this time and age.

Dear Cyrus,
 
Do you believe in practicing religion in privacy? If yes, let us focus on that leaving behind everything else. This is the only way all radicalism can be kept in control. Most secular people believe it, but most religious radicals oppose it. That is where you can put your energy. Thanks.

Mr. Hossain:
 
Thanks for your posting. As someone living in NY, I know fully well what you mean. 9/11 changed the very way we live in this world, and people's perception of the muslims. The senseless killings in the name of religion, and the senseless war that was advanced by the fascist Christian right - I despise them all. I personally find no difference between those ignorant nazis who call us "sand niggers" or "towel heads", and those muslims who call jews, christians, hindus, buddhists, or anyone "kafir", "infidel", "dogs", and everything that is available in their ignorance dictionary. 
 
Hatred and intolerance, albeit a human characteristic, must be eliminated. Those of us, who still believe that "live and let live" and practice our faith in privacy, need to stand up against those who can label anyone a "savage" and justify their propaganda against them. This must stop, and this must stop now.

Dear Alochock Cyruus:

 

You probably already know your free advice to correct Mr. Turkman will fall on the deaf ears.   I agree with you fully that the word "Savages" is as offensive as the word "Niggers".  These are highly offensive racial slurs have been used by Western colonial forces as well as the Western missionaries in the past and they are still using them to this day.  In the US if anyone uses these words while committing crimes will be subject to Hate crime and FBI will be all over.  These days Muslims in the US are being called "Sand Niggers" another highly offensive racial slur.  In fact I have been called a Sand Nigger because I don't look like a mainstream white American.  However, majority in America understands our plight and are very empathetic.  Anyone who uses these words in 21st century is still living in the dark ages and could not be more ignorant lacking all senses and civility.  BTW, I have posted my advise to all (about Mr. Turkman) yesterday.   Please read my piece, I am posting it again just in case you have missed it.  Also, I stand by my comment that Mr. Turkman is an "equal opportunity offender or hater".  Thank you.

Dear Alochocks:

 Greetings from USA!

 When someone copies from another source without citing the source or its author, in Higher Ed, we call it plagiarism, i.e., a fancy word for "stealing".  It would not surprise me at all if Mr. Turkmen has done this, who has called everyone in Alochona a liar, including the forum itself.  Not too long ago he even claimed that Alochona was spreading lies on the web.   If this is true its him who is putting out all the baseless, concocted lies about everything.   In my opinion he has exceeded all norms of professionalism and netiquette and deserves a good slap in the rear if not completely barred from this or any other forum he takes part in for his behavior.  The least one can do in this forum is respect each other and maintain civility without personal attacks.

Mr.. Turkman seems to bear a "holier than thou" attitude and keeps pounding the forum with opinions that are not substantiated.  After reading so many of his offensive postings I must conclude that he is an "Equal opportunity offender or hater",  especially so for followers of the Islamic faith.  I know for sure he has not met a single challenge put forward by alochok Mr. Mufassil Islam.  I admire Mr. Islam for standing up for everyone.

Let there be peace!

That's all folks!
