Re: [mukto-mona] Bangladesh Wins Freedom



Did I say "fairness" Mr. Rahman? No, I said "equal respect."
 
I am extremely reluctant in debating/discussing with thoroughly brainwashed and irrational people, especially on the subject that has made them so. They are too passionate about whatever has washed their brain, rationality does not work there. I am very reluctant to take up a task, such as educating this kind people, in which I am almost sure of my failure.
 
So, let me not talk about your religion, Mr. Rahman. Let me just ask you a few simple common sense questions.
 
1) Would you like to have the Hindus of India run India (because they are in the majority there), and just treat the Muslims with fairness? Or would you like the individual Indian Muslims, based upon their qualifications, to be in positions of power and visibility in their homeland of centuries?
 
2) Would you like the Indian constitution to begin with Om (the Hindu Trinity), and proclaim Hinduism as the country's state religion?
 
3) If Bangladesh had a right to be a Muslim country, what moral right did the country have to have Chittagong Hill Tracts to be a district of that country? Shouldn't they be allowed to form their own country just like Pakistan was formed in 1947? This is just one example. You can replace the CHT with any non-Muslim majority area of Bangladesh to come up with other examples. And where does this kind of divisions end?
 
If I had more time, I probably would have had some interest in talking religions with you. But unfortunately I do not have much time to waste. For now, I would say, believe what you like, but please try to bring some objectivity into your thoughts, so that at least you would not be too hateful to others that do not believe what you believe. And please try to realize that most people's so-called belief is mostly the result of brainwashing from the day they were born; almost 100% of them inherited their so-called belief from their family, with no unbiased exposure to other beliefs/rationalities.
 
Wish you a free mind/brain.

In any case, Jogen Mondal being foolish or not, the Hindus that he represented, and the other Hindus and non-Hindus that he did not necessarily represent, had a birthright on the land. For Bangladesh to be an honorable and decent nation, it necessarily has to separate Islam from the business of the state, and treat all religious groups with equal respect.

>>>>>>> While I agree with the spirit of the statement you made ( Hindus have a birth right to be treated with fairness in Bangladesh). I don't think Islam is the problem here. Rather some greedy Muslims. It may amuse you to know that, Allah (SWT) even spoke about hypocrites who speak about Allah (SWT) and Islam but ONLY work for his/her own interest in several places.

My "Personal" opinion is Islam has a solution for all people ( Even those who do not practice Islam). Over the history Islam has shown how they can be protected without sacrificing ideals of Islam. Let me share a verse from The noble Qur'an.............................................
