Quote:Jennifer, I dont think that your reply was on topic, I mean generalizing how Arabs are backward is simply another form of division and superiority-based, so you just floated with the boat.
My aim was why no muslims stood up against the acts of both countries? why no muslims are attempting to intercede or demonstrate disapproval in an objective and constructive manner?
No, my reply is on topic. I know you like to dictate the manner in which members are expected to reply to topics here, but that is my opinion on the matter and that is why I believe such things happen. Perhaps a generalization, but unfortunately based in reality.
Its a given that Muslims should fear Allah and put religion first, and we can say this until we are blue in the face. It wont change anything. The people have to feel that for themselves, not just words being heard or said. The tools are available, the knowledge is there to be utilized if one so chooses. People can worship God, or people can worship soccer. We prioritize and make our choices, and then we see the results of those choices. Both in this life and in the next.
