Smaller World
Rabu, 06 Februari 2008 | Labels: Reflection of Life, Religion | |Due to the vast development of various forms of communication some of people felt the world was ‘becoming a smaller place’ but as the world became smaller in this sense, the spirit of love between mankind ought to increase and that a sense of understanding and tolerance ought to be fostered.
It is evident that in today’s society there is a great deal of mistrust regarding the beliefs of others and indeed religion itself has become tarnished in the eyes of many due to the militant acts of certain misguided individuals and also due to bias prevalent in many media organisations.
In society at all levels there are leaders. There are political leaders, religious leaders, professional leaders and so many other types. However what each one should remember is the responsibility they hold as others will naturally follow in their footsteps. For the peace and well being of society it is imperative that good natured people come to the fore so that others naturally follow in their wake.
There is certainly difference in belief between the various religions. However, it should always be remembered that we are all human beings and therefore a sense of tolerance and love should be spread across all peoples no matter their religion. If this principle is obeyed, then and only then, will we see the emergence of a truly peaceful society.
