Diary of Yar Khan

You say,``...How cruel God really is or I should say how silly a human being is. ..``

Um! Do you pour your heart in writings in Chowk about your suspicions about Allah or did you ever express such thoughts to a fellow man? In any case, be careful before you utter these feelings. I am told there are blasphemy laws in Pakistan!

We forget that the pre-Islamic Arab society was an extremely religion-ridden one. It had also `Blasphemy Laws` which had made the prophet of Islam run for his life. But it had also great men like Abdulmutallib and Abutaalib who believed truth and ethics above faith (Aqeeda, to be exact). They shine out even in the Islamic literature which otherwise paints the pre-Islamic society all blackish. It was in fact religion against religion and not religion against secularism or irreligiocity (disbelieve or kufr). All we know today about the conflict between the Islamic and the pre-Islamic religion is the islamic version of it alone. Nothing from an independent source.

In fact, the people in power with fascist tedencies can use any religion to terrorize its opponents with its sword of blasphemy. But truth is truth. No sword can obliterate it.
