I read this article..

After reading the article literally my nerves stretched. As if the brain can fell the air pass by it. Well, Pakistan does really need critical thinkers. It’s like a great emergency which should be imposed by government.

Pakistan is a country with culture diversities. A lot of culture differences have been enhanced in a very short time and people have become very possessive about their own religion or culture. Many religions and cultures exist within us that we hardly know about. A great number of people in Pakistan are extremist in their religion and a few percentages are moderate; they are like the chill crowd in the country.

The chill crowd in the country I am referring is those who are enjoying their life to the fullest, who does not care about anything. They are happy and satisfied with their life. While the extremist ones are those who are; hyper and possessive about their religion. If a person from other community says them something this is against their religion. Rage and anger is created in them. And due to that they can’t hold their emotions or feelings. A lot of misunderstandings and chaos is created just because of one comment. People need to be tolerant and patient. They need to think in a critical manner that comment is not against them, it is just a feedback.

Another issue in Pakistan is that people know how to make fun of each and everyone. They are very limited to their own shells. And all others are clowns to them. They make fun of them and this creates distance among the people who live door to door. Pakistani are very judgmental and nosy, they can’t mind their own business and let a person practice their own religion. They have to pass judgments which don’t even have a reason.

But I am glad some things are changing like the new generation is more curious about everything. They ask questions about each and everything. Even if parents try to shut them they won’t just shut easily. They seek answers and conclusions. I have a very good example of my own younger sister, she is extremely sharp and I can proudly say that she is an emerging critical thinker. She has loads of questions for everything and if you want answers from her, she can also give that with proper reasons. It shocks me that even I never thought about that.
