You get 30 million people out on the street to resist, to express the negative, but those 30 million do not express what they want in the positive. Hierin lies the crisis of the June 30 Revolution. Philosopher Mourad Wahba. It seems as if he is talking to Eritreans. Egyptian Phiolospher Mourad Wahba is really Food for Thought for me personally and I hope also fro you, for all justice-seekers, for those who play victim and are stuck in the past. I would immediately fly to Egypt to get more lessons from this wonderful man. Please listen and watch the whole film. How they made the film is not professional but the content is wonderful. Both the Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafis want to impose their understanding of Islam upon society in its entirety in an effort to establish an Islamic Caliphate. The Islamci Caliphate supersedes countries and states. This leads directly to the Islamization of planet Earth and taking control over it. Unfortunately, the June 30 Revolution lacks any philosophers. Philosophers play an important role in any revolution. You get 30 million people out on the street to resist, to express the negative, but those 30 million do not express what they want in the positive. Hierin lies the crisis of the June 30 Revolution. What characterizes philosophers is their desire to get to the bottom of things. The do not adulate anyone, think in a superficial way, or compromise. The Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafis are fundamentalist movements; which means that they are committed to refraining from using intellect when it comes to religious texts. Therefor, they are by necessity committed to stick to the past. They follow what has been said in the past to the letter. That is why they fight to include the phrase sharia rulings in the constitution. If you oppose this, they try to get it into the preamble. They would do anything to shackle you to a specific tradition and to the past; thus ABOLISHING THE FUTURE. But a revolution is conducted for the sake of the future, not for the sake of the past. The members of the Committee of 50 (Drafting the constitution) are working for the past, not for the future. [...] It said that the culture of Eypt is part of the Arab and Islamic nation. So I told them that this expression isolates Egypt from human civilization. You have no right to talk of us only being Arab and Muslim. We belong, first and foremost to civilization, because civilization existed before the Arabs and before there were religions. Civilization began with argiculture. I believe there is a law for developing civilization, which saves it whenever there is a setback. The law states that it is categorically FORBIDDEN to impose ABSOLUTE BELIEF on society. Because it SHACKLES it and PREVENT it from developing. Let me give you an example: Communism, Nazism, Fascism of Mussolini and the recent Islamic surge of Muslim Brotherhood. The Muslim Brotherhood did not last for even a single year, BECAUSE THE LAW OF CIVILIZATION WAS HARSH ON IT, and brought justice upon it within a single year. The law of civilization could not tolerate the Muslim Brotherhood. I am talking about Islamic Culture and not Islamic Civilization, and I am talking about a single human civilization with a multitude of cultures; it is not about a clash of civilization but a clash of absolute beliefs. Any culture that dismisses other cultures and purports to be the only culture, is perpetrating a crime against humanity. Becuase they are trying to impose absolute belief on the people. This means a battle of cultures. The Mentality has to Change. I was surprised that the Copts demanded parliamentary quota. They dont understand that a revolution has taken place. A quota is the outcome of political laziness. This quota is a comic farce, because it implies that you are incapable of winning the elections. The copts should change mentaly. They should replace their religious mentality with a political one. They are just like the Muslim Brotherhood. They echo one another. Both have a religious mentality. ONLY SECULARISM CAN DELIVER THEM FROM THIS CRISIS. The organization and structure of society is manifest in the elite, not in the masses. The problem is there are no elites. Therefore, all you have left to rely upon are the army, the police, How did Europe deliver itself from the Middle Ages? The Middle Ages were just like the Muslim Brotherhood adn the Salafis. The philophers played a very improtant role in it. They suffered abuse and were accused of heresy for it. The President of my university came to talk to me in 1997. He was proud to have read my books when he was still a high school student. He asked me to stop teaching undergraduate students, saying: we have received many complaints that the students can not sleep at night. They are worried. Your (secular) ideas shock them and give them nightmares. As for your two or three graduate students, we dont care if they lose sleep at night. ... The university is rule by the fundamentalists --- the same with the PFDJ ... the university is controlled by the MBs fundamentalist ideology. ...and this is why Egyptian universities have found themselves outside human civilization. You can not develop any creative theory in science, literature, or anything... Forget all the nonsense you read in the newspapers about how great we are. I have attended dozens of international conferences and I can say that there is no trace of the Arabs there. ... Once I was surprised to learn that between 1948 and 1988 there was no Arab member in the higher executive committee of the international Federation of Philosophical Societies. So I presented my candidacy after receiving support from others. And I was elected. I completed my designated term of 15 years, and that was it. To this day, no one has replace me. ...... please listen to this wonderful topic from beginning to the end. Not for the sake of Egyptians but also for the sake of Eritrea, Ethiopia and the whole region. https://youtube/watch?v=HUclU5Z0Vek
