On this September the 11th 2003, second anniversary of the World Trade
Center attacks, I send this chain letter in the hope of promoting
religious tolerance. September 11 is just one of the many examples of
religious hatred, intolerance and discrimination that happens each and
every day under our very own watch. Religious intolerance is a issue as
it has been for thousands of years and stopping it starts with you.
Show that you are against the great religious intolerance the world
suffers every day by joining this pledge:
I shall respect those of other beliefs to mine.
I shall allow others to practice their beliefs without fear or
discrimination by myself or others.
I shall stand up for the rights of myself and others by standing up
against religious intolerance.
I shall uphold and respect the basic human rights that everyone
deserves.
Religious intolerance is a huge global problem and stopping it starts
with you. You can help stop the great religious injustices occurring
everyday by following this pledge.
Please send this on, email it, print it off, do whatever you can to get
the message out. We need to stop the disgusting intolerance before
things get worse.
Do this, out of the goodness of your heart.
"In every religion, there are those who would drape themselves in the
mantle of belief and faith only to distort it’s most sacred teachings --
preaching intolerance and resorting to violence" - Hillary Clinton
11"09"01 is the name of a movie first aired at the Toronto
International Film Festival, on 2002-SEP-11.It merged the efforts
of 11 international directors who were asked to commit their subjective
conscience to the topic of 9-11. Each director produced a segment for the film
exactly 16,057 frames long. This lasts 11 minutes, 9 and 1/24 seconds, to
symbolize 11-9-2001, the date of the 9-11 attack, in a commonly used
international format. Director Alejandro Gonzáles Iñárritu from Mexico
provided a segment that ends with a profound statement in English and Arabic: "Does
God's light guide us or blind us?" The implication is that it does
both.
