[COLOR="Blue"][SIZE="2"][B]Dear, there is nothing holy about cultural dissimilarity, ethnic conflict and racial discrimination! Holy word itself connotes something related to religious belief, so holy war means war fought on the basis of religious beliefs and differences on these. I see no flaws with it, let alone technical ones.

Sir ,iam a bit confused in this topic .when i anaylze cultural dissimilarity ,religious differences ,language , racial discrimination etc come in the topic
In addition to , holy wars are always waged in the name of religion (now modern wars are also) .Everything that we have been observing has been the result of cultural differences .
i meant that modern wars and holy wars are similar
I have tried a lot to convince my self to give strong arguments .Sadly ,whenever i work on this topic ,i become disappointed.

Sir Are we required to write one paragraph for each point mentioned in the outline? For example, in the essay quoted above, you made a main heading No:1 Introduction and three subheadings of this main heading. Does this mean that we are supposed to write four paragraphs for the introduction?

Great work Mr Bilal Hassan. Well i have been reading your posts since 2012 and i found you quite keen and Talented. Well Congratulations on your success, though its too late but accept it.

Dear Sir, The Thesis Statement of this essay should be (well, i think so) : Feminism is not really a third world issue , instead it is the issue of the whole globe.
My 2nd Q.: Is feminism an issue. I think it is not an issue but a movement, a campaign, for the equal rights of women which is categorically a good thing. its the concept of women empowerment thus how it can be an issue??

Any other member may also share his stance.
