Religion Vs Real Life (Sent on 18/07/2007; published on 20/07/2007)

The number of people attending Churches, Mosques, and Temples are in the increase. In many places there are serpentine ques and the statistics in the religious institutions boasts of the increase in numbers. Most unfortunately the atrocities in the name of religions too are increasing. It seems both are inversely proportional; but the proportion is alarming.
Friends, from all religions live together and move together in many places and one wonders why then the intolerance in the name of religion. No religion advocates hatred and violence. Yet it is that what is happening all over.
Who wants to live in perpetual fear and anxiety? Why can’t we follow the religious tenets religiously and lead a friendly peaceful life?? Instead of hatred and violence why can’t we resort to tolerance and love??
Who is the culprit? What is the solution? Who will bell the cat??
However, leave alone the religions; do not tarnish the great religions for some one’s petty little purely personal feelings.
