A Tanka about not condemning different religions.27 total reviews

Hi robina1978,
Good sentiment expressed here in your tanka, all religions share certain elements and it is always the extremists that play on the differences - mainly to gain political control and maintain their power.

Thanks for your kind review, that is exactly what I meant.
Comment from Cooper Watt
Love the message, Ine.
Holy wars have been raging for years. If every religious doctrine were to be taken as HIS truth, then everyone on the planet is doomed to hell, right?
We should all get along as believers in our differing faiths and agree to see each other on the other side.
Good poem, and good luck!

Thanks for your kind review, think it was the valley of religion-don't know where that is quite honestly.

Fantastic picture
I am also a Protestant who believes as you do, that other people have beliefs just as valid to them as mine are to me.
You make this point well in your well-composed tanka. I really like your use of questions, which engage the reader. Brooke

Hi Ine, I loved this tanka and I loved the message.
Everybody has the right to have his religion.
I don't understand the problem. The difference is the culture, but ultimately we believe all in the same. Maybe it's more a political issue. Thanks girl for sharing. Liefs Fia.

Nice tanka.
Good point, many people have different beliefs and I think everyone should be entitled to their own beliefs..
What I don't like is when people push their beefs as the only "right" way, or when they hurt others who have different beliefs.
