Hey guys,
I know it has been a while since I blogged last, but I've been working on my Strat Comm degree, graduation is around the corner.
I was on facebook this evening, and I saw picture of Christians burnt alive in Nigeria by Sunni Muslims. My problem with the situation, is not based on hatred for any religion, but hatred for the act, because I would still be as angry if the act had been done by Christian zealots. I believe that the world would be a much better place to live if people just tolerated each other. There's a song by India Arie, called The Gift of Acceptance, it says that despite race, sexual orientation, or even religion, we can respect each other and live happily.
I believe Nigeria is a great country with a brighter future, and as young people, and people in general we need to change our mindset because if we keep going at this rate...
To anyone who comes across this post, I plead with you to live a life of tolerance, whether it be religious tolerane, ethnic tolerance, or tolerance of gender and sexual orientation.
here's a link to the picture https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=261434137226842&set=a.261434133893509.56869.100000807734019&type=3&theater
