Help Me Understand

 

 

Historically, in Somalia, during periods of drought and hunger, the poorer tribes used to be able to get assistance and food from the wealthier ones.  Now that the country is divided along religious lines between Islamic and Christian traditions, no one is providing that emergency aid.

 

 

 Can anyone please tell me how any of this is a reflection of God or Allah?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Strife

The majority of strife in the world is, at present, about access to money (oil)
and the difference of religious beliefs.

I wonder what your God, Allah, Buddha, etc.

would have to say about that?

 

Under God






In the early fifties, the words, “under God,” were added to the Pledge of Allegiance. It is my understanding that they are now considering removing them. We no longer allow any religious celebrations in school, so as to keep church and state separate.



I wonder what might happen if we studied a wide range of religions and beliefs, so that children would know that everyone, one way or another,  struggles with issues of the soul and existence?
