I thought the world has changed… at least people nowadays believe in God and science and fortune tellers and musha3witheen were something, well I thought, from the past… I could not believe my eyes today, I could not but feel disgusted at the level of ignorance and stupidity that seem to have prevailed so widely in our Arab societies… People actually still believe that other fellow human beings have super powers, know the future, and have angels and people who are so wasleen that they can change the past and the future…
Today I saw people lying and ripping other people off using religion and verses of the Holy Quran…
Imagine that this satellite station Konouz, and more recently another one called Shahrazad have fortune tellers that tell people they have mediums "up in the sky" that tell them what happens in other people's life. They claim to have super powers that help people avert envy and bad magic and cure illnesses by simply reciting some verses of Quran and burning beans or hair!
What teased me the most and made me hysterically rant and yell at whatever morality and wisdom there is in this universe is that people were calling those 0900 and 4-digit mobile number relentlessly and sending SMSs to this "non-profit" channel and asking the Sheikhs and Um Wael and AlMo3jiza sth to help them cure illnesses, find husbands and solve animosity problems with mothers-in-law and husbands…
What do we call this? what can we call this daring, filthy and flagrant violation of morals, ethics and humanity… can anyone stop these people… can anyone do anything so that they just SHUT UP?!!!
