The Danger of Ignorance

 



The Price Society Pays

 In court, a murderer was asked why he killed  the man. He replied, "Because he was secular. "What exactly does secular mean?" the court asked. The murderer stated, "I don't know." 

The judge asked a man attempting to attack renowned Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz, "Why did you stab Mr. Mahfouz?" The offender stated, "Because he wrote the anti-religious novel 'Children of Gebalawi.” The judge then asked, "Have you read the novel?" The attacker replied, "No." https://rb.gy/j13wgs

In another case, the judge asked the murderer of Egyptian writer Farag Fouda, "Why did you kill Farag Fouda?" The murderer replied, "Because he had no faith." The judge asked, "How did you know he had no faith?" The terrorist said, "I understood it from his books." The judge asked, "Which book?" The killer admitted, "I don't know the name of the book. I haven't read it." The judge was surprised and questioned, "Why didn't you read it?" The murderer responded, "I don't know how to read or write." https://ln.run/1DA99

Hatred does not spread through education. Ignorance promotes hatred. This is how society bears the cost of ignorance, or keeping people uninformed.https://tinyurl.com/wrxbmycd
