People forget how long Anna Abdallah was at the head of UWT, kina mama Mulamula.. jamani this is a CCM thing, hakuna udini wowote. Labda kweli JK ana some form of sympathies zakidini lakini he knows not to let them manifest themselves in too great a way to the extent that would jepordize national security. I think in this matter, dini iko very irrelevant, hawa watu wanachaguana kwa patronage yaajabu.. namjua mume wake, ni rafiki yangu, tunasali wote azania, tulikua darasa moja cho kikuu, ni mhaya mwenzangu etc... its not only dini that plays in here.. To suggest that would be to encourage a very dangerous form of paranoia. Let us practice our faiths in moderation.
I remember nilivyokua form2 i went over to a friend's house na alikua mkatoliki, eti kumbe baba yake, mwanajeshi and a former Brigadier alikua anachukia waislamu sasa eti jamaa akaniambia "angalia bwana mzee hapendi waislamu" At the time I smiled and said " poa!" thinking in my head.. (Would Christ sancton this? Kuchukia mtoto kisa kazaliwa kwenye familia yakiislamu..lol!) I cant claim to know what Jesus would think but I doubt very much that he would hate children because they believed in a different variant of his teachings.
I wish not to ingnite some sort of religious war here lakini naombeni tuu watanzania wenzangu tuwe moderates na tupendane! Dini ni dini tuu lakini Utu wamtu hautokani na dini bali personal values, kuja hapa nakusema kuwa unachukia watu fulani, au tuanzishe vita sijui nini..! its shocking and scary because we begin to see just how close such sentiments lurke from outright conflict.. A conflict that would Kill Children and women and old people. In war, no one wins, only one prevails but winning is not winning when it means death and hunger and sorrow. Tuache mawazo machafu under the banner of DINI!
Dini to be honest is not of paramont importance kama mtu umefundishwa chuki madrassa ama Mafundishoni which i doubt.. take time to read the history and evolution of your faith, I hate people who claim to be ultra religious bila kujua hizi dini zimekujaje kuwa in the current form that they are in katika jamii zakiafrika..
A history of Islam and Christianity from academic sources will demonstrate to you the dangers of religions and manner in which it can turn brother against brother for example in jerusalem during the crusaided Saladin executed over 1000 crusaiders and 1500 muslim soldiers were beheaded by European christian forces. What a waste of life! People have been hung drawn and quarterd (google it maana its the worst thing that can be done to a human being) kwasababu ya dini. The spanish inquisition, the attrocities of the Taliban government, Al-Qaeda... all this is religion. Not God.. religion
Sometimes I wish we were all Buddists in this world maana then no one would kill another man for no apparent reason.. but perhaps human nature which is inherently distructive would prevail.. Sijui!
