Well, I think, we should have courage to listen, read and evaluate the veiws, beliefs and thoughts of people from the opposite side. This will help us know what other people think about us. Eventually we will know that in this world we are not living alone and obviously we will know that there are people who have different beleifs and there are people who do not like us due to certain reasons. Moreover, we will also know that there soceities, cultures and countries which are functioning better than our system. This knowledge will enable us to broaden our mind, thinking and eventually we will aspire to change for better.......For me interaction with different people especially those who do not share the same values is very important for our development (as an individual and society). Boycotting something is very irrational response and it amounts to cagging yourself from external influences which is sign of weakness.

Everyone has a right to think whatever he want to think but when his thinking and doing is aimed at my feelings then I have equal right to answer him with whatever I feel is correct. This is how it works. They are free to abuse my prophet (PBUH) but I am not free to have a fair debate on Hitler’s personality or holocaust. They make it a crime. I would again insist that we do not really need face book to know what people think about us. There are hundreds of forums for this. There are people who cannot leave drugs not because drugs are good but because they are addicted to them same is here with those who cannot leave Face book but coming up with strange logics that they are communicating. One should be honest. When I was using face book all 200 people in my list were sharing videos, music, pictures and a lot of stupid kind of chit chat which was not really changing anything around us. This is true for most of us may be with the exception of a few.
Mr.Musharraf started thinking he has become a great leader because of this Face book. What is strange if Mr.Javed Chaudry tries to find his popularity by face book the same way? I can understand that how interaction with diverse people on the streets or work place where people of different linguistics races and religion can be good for an individual’s development where you can show them what you are by your words and deeds Whereas at Face book it is just talk time and mostly Useless talk. If leaving face book as a forum is caging myself then I disagree here. I go to various other forums where the people are much more enlightened then at face book and know how to talk reasonably. Weak are those who cannot leave a forum for any reason which is insisting on ridiculing and abusing their most beloved Prophet (PBUH). Thanks for reading.
