Bystanders, the silent killers

Bystanders, the silent killers

In a world filled with bystanders, it is rare to witness people standing up for justice and truth. In this new world order, individuals and entire nations act as bystanders. In the name of punishing terrorists, one country has destroyed another, not only through bombs, but also by cutting off access to food and water. It is disheartening that many nations stood by as this criminal act unfolded, while some seem to wait for their opportunity to do the same.

The tragic deaths of innocent children, widespread starvation, water contamination, and the suffering of women serve as evidence that we are governed by individuals who lack the wisdom to lead. These leaders often claim to be chosen by God. For centuries, thinkers, philosophers, and rationalists have raised their voices against religions that have historically contributed to violence and death. Yet, religion continues to be followed and promoted as a source of peace.

Unless we treat religion as a private matter and approach the world with an emphasis on peace and humanity, we will continue to witness the devastation of missiles, drones, bombs, and genocide.

For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
