In my opinion, when we confront fundamentalism, we should see the situation they’re in such as their location and background. Moreover, we must be fully aware of the the outcome if one were to interfere in other people’s business and decide whether to confront the evil or not. In other words, fundamentalism can be harmful in many ways, yet we should not always interfere with a country’s internal affairs unless acted upon.
If someone is disturbed about the fundamentalists and want to take an action, they should consider Communism instead. This may sound utterly wrong but I believe that communism is still better than fundamentalism. That is because the communists are not using religion as a tool to control the people. In communism, we are not required to follow a religion to our deaths, in fact, we don’t even have a religion in communism. Furthermore, fundamentalism can be used as a tool to persuade millions into dying for a cause that cannot be proven.
The reason I am highly against fundamentalism is because it is constantly being abused and not used properly. Fundamentalism can be used to govern people legitimately if under strict supervision. However, humans are not perfect and the outcome is literally Iran: a “theocratic” country that claims to fight in the name of “god” and not for its leader’s affairs. In conclusion, I would definitely choose a system of control and stability over a system that lies to the people with “god’s” commands.
