The Internet Holy War

There is another holy war taking place and it's right under our noses. It's amazing the hatred and boldness which is activiely alive on the net. Just go onto youtube or CNN and view the comments after any story relating to the middle east or terrorism.


Anomonity in a user name plays a big part in our boldness. Stereo-typing is thriving my friends. The majority of comments reflects very badly on Muslims, Christians and Catholics. However, the so named religons also reflect badly on each other. A no win situation and vicious cirlce indeed.

Who do we blame for this? Does it come down to one specific organization or group of individuals? We all know main stream media is incredibly bias depending of course on what country you live in.

Take CNN for example:

I'm sure recently you heard of that nasty business involving the soilders? Along with the video proof to go with it. So lets analyze this for a moment. The story broke thanks to a site called wikileaks and believe me when I tell you the individual responsible for this site is indeed a brave man. One thing I bet you didn't notice was how long the story was featured on CNN, only a matter of hours then the story quiety disappeared. Sell outs?

Maybe it is best to maintain some faith in man-kind and the news agencies as well. By this I mean not wanting to add fuel to the already burning out of control Holy War taking place all over the world. One thing I did take notice of however, was the number of comments posted after the story on CNN's website.

Muslims writing things such as 'that's why there was a 9/11' or 'all the non-believers will be destroyed'. Not leaving out the Christians who wrote 'All muslims are terrorists and savages' or 'go back to your own country and blow people up there'. One in particular which stood out was 'Muhammad is a c**k sucking F*g' just to provoke a response.

Let's not forget the Catholics, I mean fair is fair right? So many words on all topics, harsh disgusting words. It's so easy to hurt when your not faced with the person your insulting. The barage of video's on youtube is incredible. Some protraying the Jewish community as the true problem to everything. Christians and Catholics joining forces to tell you how the Muslims are taking over the world with their rappidly growing birth rate. Not mentioning the fact that not all Muslims practice their faith. Just like not all Roman Catholics go to church but they were raised Roman Catholic.

The list goes on and on. The facebook groups go on and on. The right winged politicians go on and on. The left winged politicians go on and on. The hate video's, the hate blogs, the biased news casts, the cover-ups all over the world.....and for what?

For an invisible man who lives in the clouds who is loving and merciful? For the son of God who taught you to 'love thy neighbor or do onto others? For a prophet who presented a binding book of faith?

600 years ago many men, women and children died in the name of religon in our culture. It took 600 years for us to understand our mistakes and know to be truely faithful meant you did not need to harm anyone. From 1939 to 1945 there were over 70 million casualties of World War II but that will NEVER compare to the hundred's of millions killed all in the name of RELIGON.

Slowly and sadly our rights are being taken away yet so few seem to notice. It's almost as if our attention is being turned in the other direction. We seem pre-occupied with intolerance on every level. Just simply put, people fighting people. I often wonder what it is all for?

I think it's time to wake-up and grasp the bigger picture. Open your minds and forget what everyone else is saying and most importantly do your own research before you pass judgement. There is more to these stories, alot more and I think the truth will be revealed soon enough.
