WHAT IS PLURALISM
Pluralism is developing an attitude of respecting the otherness of the other and accepting the God-given uniqueness of each one of his creations. And for clarity, “I am who I am, and you are who you are – there is no need for anyone to change for the other, it will subtly create conflicts, the best thing is to accept each other as they are; be it their faith, race, culture or ethnicity.”
Each one of us is created to be unique with our own thumbprint, eye print, taste buds, and DNA. That is how unique we are, and accepting this reality is pluralism.
God chose to create and distribute humanity into different races, communities, and nations, and by extension religions. Each society has to find its own balance to live in harmony. The ultimate purpose of humans is to live securely with their ethnicity, race, religion, sexual and political orientation, culture, and language.
God has no religion and on the other hand, he wears all religions, he/she/it does not discriminate between any one of his creation. To be free, to be secure, one has to be in tune with God who does not discriminate, as his sun shines on the dirtiest puddle as well as the crystal clear mountains. All of us will die someday, and we must live freely without guilt, and regret.
Had God wanted, all of us would have been precisely alike, but he chose everything the universe is to be unique.
