Of course religion
is helpful in many ways but when the religion comes in the hands of devil
minded people it is used to damage the society.
Refusal to
prosecute, killing of peaceful demonstrators, imprisonment of one community
members, social neglect and criminal elements in politics create a ridge
between members of our society.
Whenever and
wherever there is degradation of rule, miscreants harm the innocent members of our
society. Mostly the communal violence which takes birth is politically
motivated. Most of time communal violence is seen near religious festivals.
Economical
progress and communal violence cannot live together. Lives and property face
threat. Economical, political and social imbalances breed hatred towards progressed
communities. Poverty due to unemployment and feeling of insecurity add fuel to
the adverse situation. When an attempt is made to solve problems of minorities
an intense resentment arouses among prosperous class due to clash of interest.
Narrow mindedness and historical facts also have deep effect on our psychology.
A mild provocation poisons our mind. Political
rivalry creates dangerous situation if religion is used by them to grind their
own axe. Violent speeches spread virus of communal violence which creates the
gasping condition.
Delay in normalcy
spreads virus of communal violence. Rumors create inescapable conflicts. If
there is ineffective policing, situations become vehicles of communal violence.
Religious fanaticism does not lag behind to sharpen differences in the minds of
hard boiled followers.
If we consider religion
is a personal affair of individuals, the society is sure to swim out. If the
belief is exhibited and is forced to be accepted then the society is sure to
sink down. If we do not humanize our beliefs and continue to bulldoze the
values of religion, spiral violence will root in the society which will bedevil
each and every individual of our society. We must gear up before our earth
turns into a house of war... We must treat fits of communal violence... We must
stop ill wind to blow only then, peace
will prevail on this beautiful earth and the language of communal violence will
cease to exist…
