《Rashid》
Years ago I was at the Aida Refugee Camp, visiting the Palestinian living in the Westbank. Our driver Rashid is a Palestinian, and it was him who brought us to visit his family and friends in the camp. While we were moving under the separation wall, he said something I remember clearly till today.
“I don’t talk about religion. Religion causes more suffering than healing, the root of all these is because of religion.”
These words, together with his facial expression, always come back to me whenever someone trying to convince me his or her religion is a “true” religion.
Hope you guys are safe.
