Islam bashing in this century

Pretty much from the beginning of this century there has been plenty of anti-islamic rhetoric in global politics. What is missing is more peaceful protests from the muslim community. No, you simply cannot ask muslims to carry a special id-card, Mr Trump. That will be violating their fundamental rights. A community must not accept being labeled as terrorists. We must see more peaceful protests. Not suicide bombers. Muslims form a huge community and can exhibit a graceful protest than can intimidate anyone. I suppose leadership might be the problem.

Why did Columbus have to find routes again?

Way before Columbus, Alexander of Greece knew the route to almost everywhere. But then during the so called dark ages, Europe lost connection to the world. Rome left the middle east. Kind of like history repeating now. The way they are closing borders and shutting themselves in makes me believe that some such political mess happened hundreds of years ago.

On Abortion

Thank God that the US justice system does not depend on misguided church lobbyists and can make decisions that are right for the society. Since most of the lawmakers are men, when they talk about abortion, they might want to consider what conditions would be right for men if they had to give birth to young ones. And what would men do if they thought they could not support a child they were bringing in to this world.
