After coming back here out of curiousity, some things remain the same. Things like Tajiks attacking Pashtuns or whatever. That’s fine, I had my own weird nationalist stage. Everyone identifies with their own people and history and go to extremes when they have nothing else to take pride in these days so everyone looks to the past even though we are all poor miserable *******s in 2018. What really weirded me out was people acting/portraying some ethnic and/or religious identity here for years and then suddenly exposing themselves as something completely different. That takes some special kind of psychotic effort. The hell is wrong with you people?

There are people today who think that admitting God’s absolute greatness decreases the value and importance of humans in the creation, as if God and mankind are rivals competing in greatness and power. Meanwhile I feel that whenever our perception of God’s greatness increases, with it we become greater, because we are the creation of a great God.

What do you mean tajiks attacking pahstuns? That's very rare now and then and it's only one tajik member, who has done that(don't remember his username) and he comes like once every third month, i think so. -
The weirdness is what makes it so special

Also, as economist Kaushik Basu says: "For a nation to progress it is important for people to spend time on science, mathematics and literature instead of spending time showing that 5,000 years ago their ancestors did science, mathematics and literature."

A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai
For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."
The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!
