Human Insecurity Blows Up Humans

Human Insecurity Blows Up Humans

Dedicated to my long-time friend Tariq Mehmood, Sialkot, Pakistan, www.hanguf.com

Ghana, being pre-dominantly a Christian Society, celebrates as National Holiday the end of Ramadan with their Muslim Brothers and Sisters with the President paying his respect to the Muslim community.

NPP Flagbarer, Nana Akufo-Addo, decided for a Muslim as his running made to become Vice-President in case of election victory finds it hard to win this year’s November 7th election as in case he would die, a Muslim would be the President of a Christian country making many people uneasy. His good intentions do not relate to the majority of Ghanaians demonstrating his ability not really relating to the citizen of his country too well.

Easter Sunday 2016, Lahore, Pakistan, of the 70 killed in the bomb blast were mostly Christians celebrating Jesus Christ resurrection.

Turkey does not allow Christian Churches to be built, like in other Muslim countries alike, while in Europe Mosque can be erected to a certain height with noise restrictions of calling worshippers to service.

In the name of Islam, Boko Haram kills and rape innocent people, IS wants to be a dominating force in the Arab world and beyond, Somalia for the past 25 years is in the status of civil war over Christianity versus Islam. Sudan split in two, North and South, over Islam versus Christianity misplacing many people from their native villages in the name of a higher authority. India broke up into India, Pakistan and Bangladesh with tears in the eyes of Mahadma Gandhi.

When discussing with the Imam of the Mosque at Hamburg Hauptbahnhof (Central Train station, Hamburg, Germany) where the attackers of World Trade Centre (New York City) worshipped, to me I got the impression he was very much in line with the correct, peaceful Islam.

Palestinians and Jews in Israel will never find a lasting peace solution in a region in which Templers hundreds of years ago killed people in the name of Christianity wanting to demonstrate its superiority to any other believes.

Jews got gased in Hitler’s concentration camps for reason of gaining and securing power while he was beaten up by his father as a young boy, tolerated by his mother, leaving scares in his heart and soul deeply rooted killing in the end 60 Mio. in World War II.

A human comes only from one woman and one man; therefore this world can have only be created by one Spirit. Otherwise we would live not on one earth but in parallel universes. The dominating question is who created Heaven and Earth.

Buddhism does not have a GOD, but was formulated by a Human Philosopher how he was thinking about human behavior widely accepted by his followers. Indian culture knows endless numbers of GODs the same like tribes in poorly developed territories.

Every Religion has its own answer to this fundamental question and fights over it. Whatever the answer may be, in the end we have to acknowledge that we are all HUMANS with a right to live a happy life.

When my wife does not agree with me over certain matters, does this give me as her husband the right to kill her? Certainly not. Why should anyone give himself the authority to kill others only because they want to think as they feel it is right for them?

In any case of violence, be it on territorial or religious grounds, human failures come in like insecurity, jellousy and misunderstanding of others.

Will this situation ever end? Maybe bombing and killing of innocent people will come down, but the rivalry between different Religions hardly will come to an end. Humans are not perfect, consistently having to protect their own egoism with humanity principles keeping them in check to avoid extremes.

Chocolate is eaten in good times to compliment the happiness felt, while in bad times chopped to give emotional comfort and hope of better times to come as today is not someone’s tomorrow and things can change at anytime, anywhere to anybody in whatever direction. The same applies to Believe.

Today’s world is insecure in more than one way which opens up doors to find comfort in various forms of believe, be it established Religions or supernatural, diverse ideas addressing the unseen Spirits.

Competition of convictions is not primarily a bad concept as long as we humans understand and accept our limits following in peace our own private believes and come to the conclusion one world, our world, can have only be created by one Spirit.

Being convinced and secured in one believe makes a human tolerant towards others being able to accept conflicting convictions. To protect the integrity of someone’s very one believe true knowledge of its believe is the key factor in harmony with acceptance of human in-perfection.

A woman and a man are too different, someone can sometimes think they can never match and develop together even having the same roots being humans and sharing the same bed, yet the human race has not died out…so far.
