I get quite tired of hearing and seeing news stories about people being profiled just because of their Religion.
Religion itself is not a problem and it matters not what religion we are talking about.
Far too many people have no desire to know the facts about the various religions around the world. The only thing that most people pay attention to are the stories about the radical members of the religions.
There is no large group anywhere in the world, religious or not, that does not have at least a few radical members and unfortunately those few can severely harm and, in the eyes of many, marginalize the religion they are part of.
For instance here is an article that shows TSA stopping the same man almost every single time he travels which happens often since he travels for his job at times. Everyone must go security when they are flying and I have no problem with that but at some point it becomes absurd and just simply abusive to stop someone for the same reason every time they come through. Even after the State Department clears him every time.
Then we have those that are not capable of distinguishing between people of different faiths.
Remember those that were shot and killed at the Sikh Temple? The idiot that shot them was under the belief that they were Muslims. And even if they were how does that give him a reason for killing them?
Come on people
. Read a little bit and pay attention to the world around you. Things will be much brighter and we will probably have fewer incidents if people would just wake up and open their eyes!There is really no excuse for this. Please folks raise your children to be human beings. Stop teaching them that everything is a conspiracy from some religion or country to destroy us all.
