FOR EVERY POISONOUS SOUL, THERE ARE NINE VIRTUOUS OUT THERE
O ne of the things I keep reinforcing in my mind and heart both is: this world has more good than bad. For every poisonous soul, there are nine virtuous out there. Despite our sinful nature, we are more aligned to God than to Satan… We all have the capability of committing big crimes – murder, loot and rape… yes, we all do. But, nine out of ten don’t fall to this level…. We don’t commit such crimes… Our personal values, social values, religious values, universal values… Yes, most of us are conscious of them… we are guided and saved by them… One out of ten – that one is one of us – falls. Fails… kills, roots and rapes. It has nothing to do with our religion. For, no religion encourages it... It’s simply a fall from Grace! Saudi Arabia, perhaps, has the most stringent punishment for committing crimes… I understand, they cut your hand and pluck your eyes if you kill, loot and rape... They hang you publicly. That’s the kind of punishment most of us cry...
