Everyone is entitled to his/her viewpoint, but no one has the right to impose his views on others & to prove that he’s 100 % right & the other person is 100 %. There is no such thing as absolute certainty. And no mortal is God. You have the right to differ, but you don’t have the right to act as god.
I’ve usually sided with people mostly no likes to side with. Yeah I’m on the side of mentally ill patients who might harm themselves; I’m on the side of babies who are murdered on a daily basis, cause no one wants to hear the word ‘illegitimate’; I’m on the side of people who have been sexually abused in their childhood or those who are raped or sexually abused later on; I’m on the side of animals that are abused & tortured on a daily basis.
Many a time, people who couldn’t understand what I was saying had commented. Just because I don’t think like them, they are sure that I’m on the wrong path. The problem is…unfortunately I’m far ahead of time. And please do not bother to send me the verses of the Holy Quran that you might have google searched on the net, cause I read the translation & interpretation. And I have one question for all those who bitch about other sects & religions & look down on Muslims who committed suicide due to mental illness. Here goes my million dollar question: is religion a source of discrimination?
J.S. Mill defines the judges of certainty very nicely:
“To call any proposition certain, while there is any one who would deny its certainty if permitted, is to assume that we ourselves, & those who agree with us, are the judges of certainty, & judges without hearing the other side.”
This verse is from the Quran:
“The judgment is God’s alone. He relates the truth, & He is the Best of deciders.”
Well it’s pretty obvious that humans should abstain from judging everyone else. In any case, the truth does come on the surface.
