Respecting The Beliefs of Others and Past Civilisations

I am deeply saddened by the sight of the so called Islamic State destroying the remains of the  ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud in what is now northern Iraq. This site is believed to have been built in the 13th century BC.

The sheer disrespect and ignorance of the belief systems of these ancient civilisations is just staggering. The same can be said for the previous destruction of the Ancient Buddhas in Afghanistan by the taliban.

This along with the barbaric murders and other atrocities being carried out in the name of God is really appalling. Whatever happened to Islam the religion of love and peace? It must still be there somewhere and I only hope that any ordinary, sane Muslims out there will take back the ownership of their religion soon.

I wouldn't want to be part of a religion that is so intolerant it declares that all non-believers should be beheaded! I hope that these violent people will be overthrown soon and that no more sensless killings will take place and no more  ancient sites will be destroyed.

Let us please all listen to the God within us, that still small voice in our hearts and everyone will know that war, death  and destruction are not part of God's plan for us.

I am sending out love and light to this situation and envisioning a world of peace and love. When enough of us can do the same then we can truly find peace on earth.
