But the north is not like this before, there is sharia law. I dont just understand what is now leading them into killing & kidnapping themselves.

UnusualEmissary:



There's a great deal of unseriousness, mediocrity and hypocrisy in their style of Shariah. If you can't stay true to something, don't expect it to be of true benefit to you.

But it's alright though. For "The Unity" will soon emerge and the New Era is at hand. After he arrives, The Unity will orchestrate the establishment of a New Era where consciousness and guidance will dawn upon the world and the forces of evil will be attacked vigorously

This world is a mess. "The Unity" is coming to save it!

N.B.: The Unity is not Jesus Or Mahdi or Anti Christ

I'm not going to get into mindless and childish arguments with a kid.

Remember, sooner or later, be you a male or female, you'll grow old enough to have your seeds scattered around the country.

Then, you'll look down at your folly and realize all you've been doing all along is foolishness.

The earlier we collectively attack this head long without being tribalistic, the better.

My last response to you.
