Encouraging message promoting unity amongst all

We can all live together in peace - but only if we work together!

Today I was very impressed with a comment for someone who has taken the time to read our blog and to spread a mesage of hope and peace. When we get embroiled with the Shazia Bashir case, we must be able to stand back and recognise that the issue is one relating to the heinous acts of a sexual predator and not an issue of persecution or religious inequality. The inequality this issue highlights is one of power and wealth. Please read the comment below:

I have read a few different articles about the case of Shazia. However this is the most reliable one as an attempt has been made to be objective rather seeing this as a case of Muslim v Christian.

This article rightly points out the condition of rights of both women and children(Muslim & Christian)in a country that is still run by elites who act outside the law or as a law unto themselves and a country where a large section of the population are livig in absolute poverty and therefore have no access to proper legal representation or other basic human needs: housing, nutrition, health, education, work and fair working conditions etc.

According to both communities there is a case of death that needs to be investigated in accordance with the law. Muslim and Christians should avoid subjectiviness and work together for the good of the nation and in accordance with the principles of truth and justice held by both religious communities.

Those who claim to be Muslim or Christian but do not strive to uphold truth and justice will not be saved by the labels the give themselves.

Thanks for your more objective article and we pray that this and other similar cases will find justice.
