Or that to share what the 4 colors of men, meant....... there was really nothing for you to learn and share, behind it? The idea, that any man has no effect, it like saying Newton, Confucious and JC himself, were really just flukes. Each made a choice and now the question is 'what is yours?' Do you find any knowledge good enough to share to all the world? Is there something completely pure within these pages that could actually assist our brethren? Even to share to one person what is good and truly life giving, is only a matter of choice, for you to plant them seeds and live a long time in your contribution. ![]() |

Re: Solution for Humanity!!!
Namaste and Salaam Islamis for you,
thank you for the post. Quote:
what is protecting the female from the male body and feelings of lust? shouldn't men have to cover themselves too? when you analyze such teachings along these lines it becomes easy to distinguish the cultural accretions from the religious teachings in my estimation. Quote:
further, there is no reasonable way to even get this information since many women that are raped in Muslim countries don't report it for they, the victim, are often found guilty of a crime. no system that penalizes the victim of a sex crime for being a victim is just or ethical. Quote:
why you like to focus on negative aspects of behavior and culture rather than focus on the positive ones. when negative attention is brought towards Islam and Muslim culture it seems you are not wanting to discuss it as much as the positive aspects of Islam and Muslim culture. why the double standard? Quote:
Quote:
it strikes me as an antiquated, patriarchal view. Quote:
the problem is, essentially the thing you are talking about. You have this impression, this image, this view of Western beings that is pretty inaccurate and downright strange in some ways. in the same way that you say Westerners don't have a good understanding of Muslims it seems that you don't have a good understanding of Westerners. Quote:
you may be right, it may be that we beings living in the West don't have a good understanding of Muslims. it seems equally true that you don't have a good understanding of beings living in the West. whilst you can't change the opinions of every Western being; you are just one person and you can change your mind. i hope that at the conclusion of our discussion you've changed your mind about a few misconceptions that you had about Westerners. metta, ~v |

Re: Solution for Humanity!!!
Solutions for what? Without being specific of the problems, it's rather difficult to discuss the right solutions.
The raising food prices in SE Asian needs solution. Use Philippine as an example, people and merchants are hoarding rice. The rice prices is increasing on the daily base. There is not enough stockpiles to keep the price stable. Poor people are hurting not only in Philippine but also in other SE countries. Philippine government is aggressively looking for more import from countries with surplus such as USA, Japan, China, Vietnam, Myanmar, Thailand, India...etc. Unfortunately, majority of them short of surplus and refuse to export their rice. The potential chances of rice shortage cause more fear among consumers. The fear causes more hoarding and turns the situation worse. Malaysia and Indonesia both need more rice imports in order to satisfy their domestic consumptions. Countries don't produce enough rice competing the limited surplus on the international market. Some causes are identified behind the rice shortage problems. 1.In the past 15 year, Philippine government did not pay attention to its agricultural development. Indonesia and Malaysia governments are not far behind. 2.The loss of arable land. Some productive land has been converted to other uses. 3.Rampant population growth. Religions are the causes not the solution behind this issue. 4.Raising fuel cost. Fossil fuel will run out one day eventually and cause irreversible climate damages. 5.Australia rice production was down 95% due to long term drought (climate change). The recent cyclone not only killed farmers but also wiped out one season of rice production in Myanmar. One recipe for coming humanitarian disaster is to destroy agricultural land paired with rampant population growth. Nations cannot have security without food security first. So far, neither Christianity nor Islam teachings provide any solution to these problems. Could Holy See supply 500,000 metric tons of rice to Philippine? To solve the problems, it takes some steps to stabilize these countries' population growth and at the same time to increase food production. I just don't see that right solution can be fund in the debates between religions of who has the better doctrines. How many of religious mind persons care about the real cause behind the climate change? |
