BABY PIGEON HAS A DOUBT....... A number of pigeons lived happily on the rooftop of an ancient temple. When the temple was renovated for the annual festival, the pigeons relocated to a church nearby. The pigeons who were already living in the church accomodated the new comers very well. When Christmas was nearing and the church was being given a facelift, all the pigeons had to move out and look for another place. They were fortunate enough to find a place in a mosque in the vicinity. The pigeons in the mosque welcomed all of them happily. Then came Ramadan time and the mosque was repainted, so all the pigeons now came to stay in the ancient temple which had now been renovated. One day, the pigeons atop the temple were witnessing to communal clashes taking place below in the market square. The puzzled baby pigeon asked the mother pigeon,Who are these people? The mother replied,They are human beings. The baby asked,But why are they fighting with each other? The mother said,The human beings going to temples are called Hindus and the people going to church are called Christians and the people going to mosque are called Muslims. The baby pigeon asked,Why is it so? When we were in the temple we were called pigeons, when in the church we continued to be pigeons and when in mosque, we were still called pigeons. Similarly, they should be called just human beings wherever they go. The mother pigeon said,You and me and our pigeon friends have experienced GOD and thats why we are living here in a highly elevated place peacefully. These people are yet to experience GOD. Hence, they are living below us and fighting and killing each other.
