However my point is not as simple as explaining , understanding or living wars.Yesterday one of the genius ,the most talented pianists ; composer ,intellectual and many other identities beside his music ;has been to court because of insulting a religion. Fazıl SAY.He is one of the worths of this beautiful planet.
I am especially not concerned or obsessed about one religion. I am concerned about extreme religious people. As many of you know ,religions are here on earth for few purposes. Basicly to tame your inner extreme desires and have a proper , simple life on God's way. Any religion can not be in this world or any holly religion let's say , to make people hate others or any living creatures. It is this much easy to digest the philosophy of religions. Religions have more apothegms in total than any other thinkers',leaders',singers' , artists' apothegms in understanding sense. Constitutively it only leads us to and for good and saves and/or prevents us from bad. Religions have been explained enough in too many different platforms,sociologically, and/or in religious sense. I will not explain more about it.

Either you read the link or my article first , the situation is not that simple to pass over for me. This is crudely shame. I can not find any better word to express my feelings. This situation is as deep as human history or as old as big bang. We can give billions of examples like this in history but the deadly question is for me " Why even now?". Now means Cern , means Felix , means 21st Century with all the improvements and developments in some senses. OR shall we ask "why even now althought the century we are in"?
Not long time ago , just a month ago this world was dealing with religion provocations. Many people who even have not seen the movie or caricature which is about to tease or insult the holly messenger of a religion ,were protesting and in some underdeveloped countries it showed itself with violence. Have we seen a different picture when 9/11 happened? People just wanted to take vengeance on the other religion believers or supporters, because people were all in agony. There must be a responsible of all. Whom should have been judged as guilty in both pictures? Civil believers or members of eastern and western countries? The States are in real golden age , we can not carry even a bottle of water in airplanes and in the near future if something happens because of our stool , they will not hesitate to analyse it before flying. Fears to be able to control people.
Some people would ask what is the connection between Fazıl SAY and holly religions , western people and eastern people. These are the reflections of maybe 50-60 years politics also by the communication tools developments' help. Yes we communicate easier without willing. While we are communicating , we are usually easily manipulated and provoked also with our prejudices. People are all hurt in both sides , their feelings have been hurt for many years day by day , step by step , although we were too close the world peace after World War II. We could easily raise up a different generation than any other century had. Now those hurt people in both sides can be easily offended. People who are still in trauma , are trying to find a way out. How can a simple mind take revenge? How can a simple mind be relieved? Could they show their anger to rulers? We are talking about people in trauma for umpteen years emotionally , physically. Who can they take the revenge from? A target which is the closest? This case can not be explained as a simple ordinary case. Everyone has responsibility in this case. Can we live with ignoring the other side of the world , until it touches to our lives badly? Ignorance which has a great menu to feed itself , also vengeance , also hatred...
Believe it or not Turkey is a unique country which have almost all the beauties of this planet ,however not a unique country in political problems , in humanity problems , in free thought problems. Fazıl Say is just a sample to show simple minds justice on their eyes. An easy target to load ,to empty all their hatreds. Because they are believed that except their believes nothing else is right. As same as idea of muslims are potential terrorist in the western countries. We are just believed. Which religion gives you this right? Which belief? Is Today a really good day to die? Would your God prefer you to be ignorant ?
Fazıl Say , who just wants his country enlightened , who wants to see his people in better conditions ; is facing one of the umpteen shame cases in his country. Just because of a poem of Omar Khayyam who is another genius on my side , who is the craziest person if I think the century of his poems. Many people would hate him easily but he deserves a great respect to his talent and craziness. This case is an enforcement or fear against free thought and noone who is sensible , can pass over it easily.
P.S : During the article I did not concern about any religion especially , because I have seen many people who have no difference in mind sense , just different in language or culture etc. Radical believes can not belong to one religion. If you are wondering who the hell I am , I am a humble thinker. That is all. No great academic carrier , just observations of this beautiful planet to make it more beautiful. With all respect!
Stay in peace. May the peace be with you , the rest is details. I am not after either Romney Style or Obama Style , I am after new world order. It should not be this much cheap to kill ideas physically or intangibelly!!!
