The Ghouse Diary: Boston Marathon Tragedy

Boston Marathon Tragedy

We need to resist all temptations to mirror the bad guys, we must avoid thinking and acting like them, otherwise, what is the difference?

As members of the civil society, we need to be bent on finding solutions, or at least not aggravate the situation.

I urge fellow Americans to withhold speculating the identity of the criminals, or develop hatred towards any individual at this time. We need to live a guilt free life.

Punish we must, to the maximum allowable limit by the law of the land, once the law enforcement agencies track down those criminals. Hatred of others is more damaging to our souls than we know it. Let’s be wise and not run sewer through our hearts like those guys. It is not easy, but it is the right thing to do.

Rachel Maddow lists all such voilence for the last 50 years at this link

I believe President Obama will go after the individual(s) and get them, just as he did with Bin Laden, get those rascals and spare the world. He will do the right thing.

On our part, we have to pray for the positive energies and good wishes of people to envelop the victims and their families. Amen.

Whether this is homegrown or foreign influence, we still cause our own problems. That which we try to force on our nation or other nations against our holy books affects our homeland security.

The United Nations and United States have no authority to press other nations for UN “Human Rights” that oppose religions of other nations and are against many of their constitutions. These are the things conflicts and wars are about in Israel-Palestine, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, North and South Korea, China, Russia, and multitudes of African and other nations. Generally where-ever we have troops that is the case.

The United Nations and United States’ law proclaim freedom of religion, yet they push against that trying to impose ungodly ways, calling it freedom, prosperity and/or enriching poor nations; it is enslaving us to lifelong employment, taxes, insurances and restrictions and polluting us toward extinction. It goes against the word of God in our holy books.

Neither United Nations nor United States can press or establish and endorse leaders who prohibit free exercising of religion by their “UN Human Rights” standards; it is against their (UN + US) laws.

The Foundation for Pluralism champions the idea of co-existence by respecting and accepting the otherness of those different from ourselves. The World Muslim Congress is committed to nurturing the pluralistic ideals embedded in Islam. Heavily involved in both, Mike Ghouse is committed to building cohesive societies and has produced outstanding public events to bring Americans together of different religions, ethnicities and races on common grounds of building a safe and secure America.

oncerned by the divisiveness, he saw the need to bring Americans together and founded America Together Foundation committed to building a cohesive America, indeed it is in response to ACT America which is bent on pitching one American against the other. We will be holding series of educational programs, conferences and workshops to address the issues that divide us such as Civil Right, GLBT, Quraan, Abortion, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, Racial Profiling and Stereotyping.

The Annual Unity Day USA is in its 7th year now, it is a purposeful event to bring Americans together, on this Unity Day, we the people of the United States of America of every faith, race, ethnicity, culture and background will gather to express our commitment to co-existence, unity, prosperity and wellbeing of our nation.

Thanksgiving Celebration is in its 15th year showcasing cultural diversity.

The 5th Annual Reflections on Holocaust and Genocides is to learn and to acknowledge and reflect upon the terrible things we have inflicted upon each other and commit to avert such tragedies. Through this event non-Jewish people have consciously learned about Holocaust for the first time, it was also for the first time that people of 14 faiths came together to join in to commemorate the Holocaust that commemorated within the Jewish Community for years. They are not alone anymore in their anguish, we are all in it together with them, and it is a Muslim initiative to effect a positive change.

The programs, seminars and workshops conducted by the Foundation for Pluralism have become a part of the America Together Foundation. While the Foundation for Pluralism continues championing the idea of co-existence through respecting and accepting the otherness of other, the commitment to nurturing the pluralistic ideals embedded in Islam through the World Muslim Congress continues.
