Religion, Sciences, Philosophy: Mind & Beliefs

By Dr. Saida A. M. Seddik

This modest scripture is a thoughtful review that allows critical questioning issues related to faith, religion, and sciences from the postmodernism philosophy's perception. The ideology that stands behind the violence and devastates western societies. Violence is practiced without limit in all levels: political, economic, and social with gang practice. Postmodernism adopted globalization as an ultimate social mode of life, which marginalizes traditional social values. Many cultures diminished because of the economic globalization affecting small ethnicities and groups, putting them to the margin. Globalization is almost denying morality, religious values, and traditional social norms; this condition is ravaging because of the liberal values that control modern societies. Imperialist countries imposed modernity military invasion; many traditional cultures couldn't embrace it as a standard model. Anthropologists have covered this level of contradiction and conflict between the traditional and the modern social model. Further, the doubt goes deeper into religious beliefs when confronted with liberalism and individualism. Modernism couldn't be imposed without favoring freedom of action over state control. The capitalist ideology based on individual liberty leads to violence, heinous crimes, tension, conflicts, and ignite wars worldwide. It values dictatorship over democracy and people's involvement, and if the intellectuals don't take control of this situation could cause harmful consequences. Likewise, the first actions should be taking conscious among citizens to be aware of the wrong information and mainstream ideologies. To surpass the misleading information, we have to be mindful of the typical stereotype of the character drawn by the media that present the Muslim as the Middle Eastern. This prefabricated image of a Muslim-born terrorist is not accurate or correct. But it's easy propaganda for the conservative far right that stands for anti-immigrant, anti-Islam, and anti-refugee There are no clues we could use to blame terrorist acts on extremist Islam. The facts fail to prove the connection between terrorism and Islam.
