    The real question is, Have humans become less violent today than they were a 100000 years ago. The relative scale of calculating the number of death due to wars is deceptive.

    The earth has become small, and on it hops the Last Man, who makes everything small. His species is ineradicable as the flea; the Last Man lives longest. "We have discovered happiness" -- say the Last Men, and they blink. They have left the regions where it is hard to live; for they need warmth (Friedrich Nietzsche)

    3000 people not 2000 people died on 9/11. US response could have been more focused on UBL rather than going into Iraq . Problem is we don’t have the brightest people in politics and those are the people who end up making big decisions ! Same is true with scientists , for example Fienman celebrated the use of atomic bomb over Japan before he realized what he has done and enabled politicians to do with the lethal power.

    Dr. Sahab, your lectures are quite enlightening but it hurts to witness that so few people constitute the audience which includes children even probably in order to appear as such.
    I would also like to point out a fact which is no way relevant here but I have mentioned it for your information that is if you keep a watch on what's happening in India you might have seen a news about a gathering of thousands people openly and without fear of retribution declared that they don't believe in Brahma,. Vishnu and Mahesh and vowed that they would never let themself be governed by the cannons of Hinduism. This event is significant in itself but what is more significant is this has happened in the time when bjp with the help of their pet media has been brainwashing hindu populace into rabid religious frenzy
    .I am not saying that Muslim should also do so rather my point is that they should have this right at least. It is not as much important in case of India where Muslim are in minority as as it is for Pakistan which is a country of Muslim. Sir, you are a man of reason so I hope you would get my point. I don't want to say it in more clearer way because I don't want to hurt people's patriotic sentiments. With all respect to Islam and people who practice it i would only say that a country should have no religion of its own as it thwarts progress and independent thinking that our poor people need more than religion. Thank you.

      Mr Tiwari, Hoodbhoy is teaching nothing new or earth shattering. The Holy Quran has given to mankind the most beautiful expositions of all fundamental sciences and through their faith, Muslims invented the earliest scientific thought. If you want to understand the FiNAL version of all sciences, I invite you to study the Holy Qur'an in depth. Top scientists in the best American universities are not spending billions of dollars to mine the secrets of the Holy Quran for nothing.
      But I am so very glad some Intelligent Indians like you and AAP followers have begun to recognize the evil of worshipping Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh. If Hindus had reached such maturity and clarity of religious thought prior to 1947, Muslims would have stayed back in India. Hopefully you and AAP gain power in India and we can finally banish the worshipping of Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh from the world.

    Dear Dr Hoodbhoy, I respectfully disagree that todays times are better than yester days.... Socially we are completely going either the same or going South. Why is that may the time of my parents 1950-1980s had a better world to deal with?

    آپ نے جو بات کی ہے وہ ایک ہی زاویے سے کی گئی ہے، یعنی کس دور میں کتنے لوگ قتل ہوئے، یے بہت ہی محدود طریقہ ہے مُختلف ادوار کے موازنے کرنے کا۔
    مثال کے طور پر خاندانی نظام ٹوٹ رہا ہے، بزرگوں کا احترام ختم ہو چکا ہے، زنا بہت عام ہے، بہن بیوی کا فرق ختم ہو رہا ہے، رشتے داروں سے میل جول کم ہو گئی ہے، جنس کا فرق ختم ہونے کو ہے۔
    صداقت، دیانت، شجاعت، سخاوت جیسے اور بہت سے اوصاف ختم ہو رہے ہیں۔ جھوٹ، مکاری، عیاری عام ہو چکی ہے۔ کرپشن ہر ملک میں بہت عام ہے۔ سائنسی ترقی اور وسائل ہونے کے باوجود بوکھ و افلاس نا قابلِ برداشت ہو چُکے ہیں۔ ہر شخص اپنی اپنی سوچ رہا ہے۔
    یے سری باتیں آپ کی گفتگو سے میں زیرِ بحث نہیں آئی اور یے وہ باتیں ہیں جن کی تعریف نا فقط اسلام بلک تمام تہذیبوں میں کی جاتی رہی ہے سوا آج کی جدید تہذیب کے۔
