Aftab, may you be one to enlighten this deep darkness of ignorance and bigotry that has engulfed us. This is what a philosopher does, induces our minds with curiosity and thinking. A philosopher educates us and education makes us ask questions and search for meaning. And once we start searching for meaning first thing we realize that we are much more than our “ids" and even more than our "drives". And once through this search we recognize the reason for being here then life becomes worth living and we learn importance of our “being” as opposed to our “having”. As Friederich Nietsche says “He who has a why to live for can bear with almost any how.” A philosopher like you must succeed in explaining the religions as the prophets wished them to be – KNOWLEDGE as oppose to being a dogma. Knowledge demands sincere doubts and questioning as opposed to dogmas which demand unreasonable acceptance. Wonderful! What an enormous pleasure to find you and your finer mind.

Human behavioral deviations with acquired qualities as traits are the result of this catastrophe in the form of death and destruction.

These traits targeted different platform and portfolio so to accomplish the desired motto as is being requested by the extortionist.

It is this theme of desirable motto that was and is being utilized sometimes in the shape of ethnic, social, state based or religious belongings.

None of the religion including Islam and Christianity preaches and offers such slogans to demolish or decrypt the humanity.

It is the abolishment of values as depicted and explained by religion, that have acquired the place as resident in the form of attitude ,ego, color, cast ,classes, cadre, community, races, genders, generation and nation.

Natures and beings are formed beyond the premises of any acquired boundaries, domains and religion with specialized and distinct instinct of its own with similar habitat and activities, reactions, reasons with static and defined dominancy.

However it is this expression of genetic features that is over whelmed and ignite in individual resulting in to destructive approach towards superiority, lust, leisure, desire, abuse, and every such factor that occupy the portfolios and platforms of selective domains as religion, culture, races and reign that becomes the reasons of catastrophe, although such portfolios are the acquired mode for such acts .regards

Scope of horizon should not be curtailed in restricted domains of religion. The birth of universe has its own philosophy and structural architecture and religion serves and reverses the scattered phenomena of this unique structure by nature designed en routes and causeways through its route towards the architect as creator so to second the concept of originator, as god. In other word religion helps in finding your lord but nature speaks the truth of creator.

If you go that way, you will not find yourself lost in the labyrinth of arguments. Try to answer philosophy from religion, and not otherwise.
