Re: Whats the Difinition of Enlightent Moderation ?
Question is intention. What was Musharraff's intention when he introduced this word? Is he telling us to give up our culture and become western? Is he telling us to drink alcohol? Do other haram things? Change the way we live, or change the way we think?
Simply, he is telling the nation to embrace path of socioeconomic uplift. Posotive thinking is not going to hurt anyone. I have seen many people who have no facts on religion and current state of the world but continue to preach what's right and worng.
We have a country that is divided between two types of people. Those with world knowledge, others with religious. Both of them are pulling the nation towards their way of thinking. They are in clash with each other, not knowing that unintentioanlly they are hurting Pakistan. Both of these sects can use a little bit of moderation and understand each other's point of view because we all want a better Pakistan, don't we?
good post.
