There's something that's been bothering me for a while I really feel the need to let it out.....eversince I joined IB I was well very happy .....at first, I thoughof this place like a second home to me and that we're all a family .....but then I don't how to say it everytime I visit this place all I sense is afierce vibe of competition and hostility, everyone wants to refute the other, everyone wants to put each other down and ironically everyone wantsto put that picture of the perfect muslim and muslimah, why all this why can't we just get along and unite peacefully.I had to take a break fromhere thinking that things might have changed but apparently it's same old. Please don't get me wrong I'm not trying to criticise you guys but reallyI honestlydon't if it's just me whose there's something wrong or it's something else, but I think we should calm down and relax. If you hate me by now Iwould understand no one really wants to hear something like this butplease bear in mind that God knows I do not intend to offend you in any way.
why all this why can't we just get along and unite peacefully.
Unity and peace are almost negative qualities and may never happen here on Earth, we have to almost let go of our strong beliefs in order to tolerate someone with different opinions. I am a Catholic with the desire to foster greater interfaith tolerance, understanding and friendship, this makes me a kind of loner on this forum. As such I would expect a certain amount of hostility, but I have to say that over the years I have been made to feel welcomed here.
The ‘Oneness of God’ and unity are almost beyond my understanding when the same God chooses people through diverse faiths. The bottom line for me is that we are all created by the same God, and we have a duty to care for all of God’s creation, which means caring for each other despite all our differences.
In the spirit of praying for unity and understanding,
