The Paris Tragedy
10 years ago
It is indeed a horrific tragedy what happened at Paris on Friday, the 13th of November, 2015. Almost 90 people died being shot by terrorists and probably other 80 are still in shock and need psychological therapy, my condolences for those who died, no matter their nationality.
But, the incident isn't really what I want to concentrate on, I want to concentrate on the world's reaction to this unfortunate event. First off, let me as you a question or two: "Do you think it is okay that people want changes in their country's government because of this event ? Or do you think it is okay that some people are like 'Oh dear, let's pray for Paris' ?" I have to say my answer to this is that people aren't thinking straight. Let's be honest here, praying won't solve anything, when has religion ever solved an event of such proportions ? I'll tell you, never. Religion (along with its differences) caused only sadness and sometimes deaths of important (mostly scientists) people or simple people, it is only bound to start a war one day. SO my question is, why do people not realise that the most useful solution would be to actually ditch religion, and live as a population of religion-less people. No more differences will mean no more terrorist attacks, but maybe it's just me.
Secondly, people from Facebook and Twitter I'm talking about you, a simple filter on your profile picture or avatar doesn't show you care about the incident, if that filter isn't accompanied with some action or elaborated opinion on the event it is just useless. It is free to give your opinion on something, and it doesn't harm, at least form your opinions on this, if you want to go even further take attitude, a simple filter doesn't change something.
Yeah, I needed to let some thoughts out and probably exercise a bit of writing at English, stuff for Cambridge Certificate, whatever, feel free to write whatever you want in the comments, after all, we have our freedom.
