By M.A. Zaman. Dhaka, Bangladesh My proposition is ‘Religion is for man and man is not for religion’.
God created man as supreme being of all of His creations. All other things have been created in the universe to serve the mankind. And to lead the life of humankind in a be-fitting manner as desired by the God the religions have been revealed through apostles from time to time. So to make the will of the God fulfilled man should obey edicts of the religion for his own interest. If he does not obey the advices and leads life with desire of the passions he will become victim of woe. The God repeatedly advised in the book of religion to observe human instinct as devised by the God..
We people using the religions as means to dominate other creating classes, hatred, and enmity among the mankind. Resulting occurrence homicide, war and unhappiness. The history tells us that conflicts on the ground of religions killed greater number of people than the people killed by any other clutches since occurred on the earth. The people using religion in commerce and profession. On the other hand misinterpretation of the religion teaching has misled a group of people. They are wondering in the wilderness. Some ancient religion books rightly were revealed from the heaven but with the passage of time had become obsolete. But majority of the mankind are followers of these sorts of religious books till to date. Religions are the great tools of politics. These motivated people creating classes and hatred in the society. Religions classification in the human generation prevailing all the over the world. The very purpose of the religions have been defeated in the hand of the power monger rulers. This state of the affair preventing human globalization. So much so that the whole world has been divided into several groups as per followers of religions, neo-religion and non-religions.
We need to realize that the religions are for human peace and happiness not to create hindrance to achieve the goal. If anything prevails due to religions which are not contributing toward peace and creating individual life unhappy that is not religion but prejudice. My maxim
‘Man is above all right nothing is above man’.
Love man whom you like.
