 It is easy to look at the Middle East today and think that it is a powder keg ready to explode. It is almost impossible to turn on the news at any time if the day and not see the media playing out a crisis in the middle east in vivid detail. There is Isis taking part in unthinkable acts of violence, a young women who was shot while on the school bus, and many other cruel acts that are brought forth by the media to portray what monsters people who follow Islam must be.

 However; that is not the reality. Although there is a war taking place in the middle east and violence on the Gaza strip, that does not mean that all people who choose to follow the Islamic faith are one in the same.

 People always struggle with religion. There are fundamentalist groups that still live in the United States, at this time. Although they are not violent groups, they have chosen to live there lives in a fundamentalist nature. Having the basis of only Biblical ideas, they live without electricity, and opt not to speak with non-fundamentalists. The premise is the same along the Gaza strip, although much more extreme in nature. There is not an excuse for the behavior, however; it is a religious war, in which many of the people in that specific area have very fundamental values.

 It is important for our culture to understand the differences, between extremism and basic religious beliefs. Anytime anything becomes extreme in nature it can become very dangerous. The danger comes from not being willing to accept others for their opinion and beliefs. With the violence that is depicted by the media, it is very easy for people from this country to become extreme in their beliefs. Once an individual becomes extreme in their belief system , violence could erupt from a number of different places.

 Throughout this weeks learning resources, the similarities became apparent between the three religions of Abraham. Although there are differences, the overall ideas are typically the same. Furthermore, it is important to remain objective throughout life. Once objectivity is lost, the ability to be able to think and draw conclusions for oneself will also be lost.
