Re: You are so modern
agreeing with aahmed,
question : what concept does 'modernity' portray amongst current political and humanitarian issues today ? to what extent is it contributing towards them? other than developing strategies of liberal thought within our outlook and understanding of life, i really dont see this subject area preventing or helping overcome mainline issues of poverty, war & human suffering which dominates contemporary conditions and situation of civillisation in various areas of the world. Fine, even if all agreed that desis muslims and many others are far absorbed in this idealogy and framework of belief , what will hapen when they come out of it ? most likely theyre liable to undergoe extreme confusion and resort to some other means to overcome their paranoia or eventually understand the reality of life and embark upon an enlightened vision towards life .
so how do we transform folk entrapped in the boundaries of modernity ? how much how long how how ?
The Prophet Muhammad couldnt even lead everyone to the righteous paths & break free from the shackles of ignorance
who n what are we then
