Dear Mr. Jamal
Thank you for this article. However, I take issue with you conclusion that capitalism, rather than religion, is to blame. I have some brief comments here.
1. Religion, as we know, is not a unified theoretical construct and each religion and its holy book is subject to many historical interpretations. We witness that in Christianity and Islam for example.
2. There is undeniably firm connection between religion and capitalism, which Marx had already detailed. On the US dollar, we read “IN GOD WE TRUST’.
3. Religion, or at least in its name, humanity has witnessed many dreadful wars and tortures, that is even before the capitalist era.
4. Socialism is not the solution if it does not uphold human rights. A communist dictatorial regime, as in North Korea, is as equally bad as the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Have a great trip*.
