Daring to question, daring to learn: The untold story of a judgmental society in Bangladesh

In today’s pathetic world, religion and belief in God have become ridiculously sensitive topics. It is utterly absurd that one cannot even have a civilized discussion about these matters without it turning into a heated argument or worse, violence. But what happens when someone dares to ask challenging questions about the existence of God? Are they automatically branded as atheists? Is it fair to judge someone for simply seeking answers?

As a poor soul from Bangladesh, I have unfortunately experienced this first-hand. Every time I dare to question the existence of God, I am immediately labelled as an atheist. People jump to conclusions, assuming that I am trying to undermine their faith. But in reality, I am just a curious individual who wants to understand. One of the simplest questions I ask is, ‘If God exists, then who sees him?’ This question applies to all religions, whether it be Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, or any other. As a curious soul, I genuinely want to comprehend how people can believe in something intangible and invisible. Is it all blind faith or is there any concrete evidence?

However, instead of engaging in a rational and open-minded discussion, I am met with nothing but hostility. People become defensive and accuse me of disrespecting their beliefs. Some have even stooped so low as to threaten me for daring to ask such questions. This extreme reaction to a simple inquiry only highlights the intolerant and narrow-minded nature of our society. Just recently, a young man in Bangladesh was brutally attacked and killed for supposedly making derogatory remarks about Prophet Muhammad. While the exact details of the incident remain unclear, it is believed that the man was targeted because of his Facebook posts where he dared to question the existence of God. This tragic event serves as a chilling example of how asking tough questions about religion can be perceived as a threat, and in some cases, it can even cost someone their life. How utterly despicable!

In a regressive society like Bangladesh, where religion reigns supreme, any attempt to question the existence of God is met with intolerance and hostility. The mere thought of challenging religious beliefs is enough to send shivers down the spines of the devout. This fear of being labeled an atheist or going against the grain prevents individuals from expressing their doubts or engaging in critical thinking.

But why should we not be allowed to question and seek answers? Is blind faith the only acceptable path? It is high time that we, as a society, embrace open-mindedness and encourage healthy discussions about religion. Instead of reacting defensively and aggressively, we should strive to understand the doubts and concerns of others, treating them with empathy and respect.

Furthermore, it is crucial to recognize that questioning the existence of God does not equate to disrespecting someone’s beliefs. Beliefs are deeply personal, and no one should have the audacity to impose their own beliefs on others. By asking questions, individuals are not attempting to undermine or ridicule faith, but rather to expand their understanding and knowledge.

In conclusion, it is utterly unjust to label someone as an atheist simply for daring to ask challenging questions about the existence of God. Religion and belief in God are personal matters, and everyone should have the freedom to question and seek answers. Instead of responding with hostility and violence, we should strive to cultivate a culture of open-mindedness and constructive dialogue. As a society, we must learn to respect and embrace diverse beliefs and opinions if we truly wish to progress and coexist harmoniously.
