EVERYONE must know by now that other people believe in other religions. The people who say that they talk to God are NOT willing to take orders from other people who talk to a differently defined God. Frankly, I am not willing to take orders from people who pretend to talk to God. Too often the orders are that all women should shut up and go home.
I believe that the Muslim Brotherhood has lost credibility in Egypt because the MB are misusing the name of God. I believe that the MB was trying to force the rest of Egypt into obedience to whatever the MB said that God wanted.
As Egypt moves forward, please remember that EVERYONE needs to talk to EVERYONE. Everyone needs to vote. Boycotting elections and boycotting conferences is STUPID. It is like saying that you will not talk with anyone who disagrees with you. I usually enjoy talking with people who disagree with me. Often, this allows me to see a solution that I did not know existed.
The other thing to remember is that the majority is not allowed to pass laws that harms a minority. Respect for everyone should be the goal of a good government.
Almost every religion believes that a person needs to treat all persons as the person would like to be treated. Please understand that this means that you have to treat women, Muslims, Christians, Copts, Sunnis, Shiites, Hindi, Buddhists, cripples, elderly, Black, Asians, everyone with respect. You must LISTEN to everyone so that you can find a path to the future that you can all walk.
