Should we think we are better and others are bad because our traditions are different.?

Question

People who look orthodox, may not be so pure in reality, and those who seem to be very bold and fashionable, may be following a core of principles better than the so called orthodox.

Answer 1

Every race has its merits and demerits . No one race is enirely and totally superior . It is also seen tha most of he people in most countries do not behae in he manner that is staed to be their cultures according to their religons or scriptures or books on theri civilization.The reason is ha all living beings , from animals o humans and moe paticularly humans behave in a manner tha that is totally different from what they really ae . They all put up a show and show hemselves as something very decent ,superior , generous etc in a manner that is differentfrom their real self . hardly anybody is an exception. All ha is in the lierature and scriptures ae not what the people are but what the people of any land are expected to be . hey ae mena o teach people to follow some princicples that the scripturesconsider to be good for the particular society to which it is intended. If you see a board askin people not to do something , it means ha the people are used to do that prohibited thing . If you find more of moalizing loterature in any country , it should only show tha that the people there needed those lessons . hat is they awee waning in those respcts and it does not mean that the people wee given to such great practices .Allhat is ther ein our scriptures ar the best lessons o follow a; but we did not . Neither do we still follow them .On the contrary we do not see so much grea lessons in the liretaratures of he west . but we do mot seem so much bad characters there also . You do not fine any one pissiong in the street in the western countries . You do not see so much garbafe in the streets in the west . Oncrease in population can not be a causeor justification for degenaraion of behaviour and morality . Generally he more religious a man , the more wicked he is .you do not see so many criminals among politicians in the west as we see he re in our country. perhps he reason is that our Governments are headed by persons who are not interested in the pride of he country . May be because they are of foreign origin and they do not care touphold the tradition and values of he country but are inerested in getting into the international list of Billioners .

Answer 2

No. Never. What people should do is become educated in various cultures and learn about the different customs and traditions they carry. Culture gives personality and flavor to a person. Thats what makes us interesting. Learning other cultures also eliminates prejudice and discrimination and all those ignorant ideas about a culture being better than the other. Of course you have some cultures were things seem weird and inappropriate but while those things dont harm the person or other people around them, then we should just let them be. I guess it's only when other cultures do ugly and mean things that we can step in and show them other alternatives even though it's hard because once a person has been brought up a certain way its difficult for them to be open especially if that culture is closed minded.

Answer 3

No one should judge another because of tradiition, origin, looks, history, race, beliefs, etc. In other words, NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO JUDGE ANYONE ELSE as long as that person is following the laws of good behavior. Every person has inherent worth and dignity and that should be respected. As you say, some people may "look" good but not live life completely properly and others make "seem" strange in their looks or way of life, but be living more properly. Acceptance of others is the key to spiritual enlightenment.

Answer 4

i'm no longer constructive that we would want to impose the former platforms. If we were to do this, then what number of human beings might want to nonetheless be able to practice. i do not learn about easily everyone else, yet i'm nonetheless getting to well known. i have no relations that are Wiccan, or a close-by coven i might want to benefit from. I learn from what I examine, and what I listen from others. My beliefs are one hundred% Wiccan, yet i don't think of we would want to bypass decrease back to the former platforms. Its an exciting question inspite of the actuality that. :)

Answer 5

I am wiccan and the thing i've learned is that all religions and beliefs are acceptable. Whether you're a babtist or a satanist it is your path to walk not mine. That is our belief. The opinions of this world are wide and varied and only with tolerance do we find peace and do no harm.

Answer 6

Definitely not. We must remember that we are all human being whether we are black or white, Hindu, Muslim Christian, Bhuddist or so on. We are all born from our mother's womb, we all cry whe n we are in pain (of course some maynot be strong enough to show they are hurt), we all bleed (blood) when we cut ourselves.....and lastly we all die. This shows that WE ARE ALL HUMANS NO BETTER OR WORSE.

Answer 7

To think of yourself as better than others doesnt reflect strong traditions, on the contrary it just shows arrogance on your part.

Answer 8

Sadly, many do. That's what causes so much hatred in the world. People thinking they are better than others.

Answer 9

Look I'm not even a Christian, but I'll quote a Christian document because it says it best, "Judge not, least ye be judged." Or another really good one, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Answer 10
