CONDEMN THE CAUSE, NOT MERELY THE EFFECT

CONDEMN THE CAUSE, NOT MERELY THE EFFECT

Nobody goes to the scriptural roots of fanaticism. Everybody is busy condemning merely the surface act of terror. And this is the problem. The causes remaining untouched, the effect will proliferate by the day.

Terrorism has to be rooted out at the scriptural doctrinaire level. Else, it is a lost war with fresh recruits ever advancing the cause of terror.

Where is genuine condemnation of the scriptural roots of terror? It is all a pretentious show of protest against the act of terror without condemning the ideology behind it all.

The agenda of global domination through imposition of faith on all must fail, for the world is intrinsically variegated and cannot ever be reduced to a monolithic mass. But the cost of it may be too high before elimination of this evil is achieved.

Hence, awake, everybody, all those who are sane enough, discerning enough to detect this evil and its proliferating perfidious progeny intent on destroying the world for a supposed heavenly reward of continued sense-satisfaction of an intenser kind.

Awake, my friends, awake ! Sleep no more. The hour is close to doomsday with nuclear warheads potentially in the hands of irresponsible evil clerics practising a corruption that goes by the name of piety.
