Bryan Cranston: Cancel Culture Kills Forgiveness
DAILYWIRE.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: Hazar Imam, 2003: "Remember that Islam says: try to find compromise in your conflicts, so that each may retain their dignity. Islam does not say: there must be a winner and a loser.... [F]ind solutions of compromise so that each may come out of the situation with their heads held high, that none can say of such and such family or of such and such individual that it is over, they have been destroyed. This is not Islam; destruction is not Islam."] ARTICLE: Cancel culture just got another opponent: "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston. Speaking with AP last week, Cranston said that cancel culture has created a world of no mercy. "We live in this 'cancel culture' of people erring and doing wrong -- either on purpose or by accident -- and there's less forgiveness in our world," he said. "Where does forgiveness live in our society ... as opposed to creating more fences, creating more, 'you're out, you're in, that's it.' You make one mistake, gone. Where can we accept someone's behavior if they ...

20 Minute Video Recap and Q&A of "The Ismaili Imamat: A Signature in History"
A few weeks after the first presentation of "The Ismaili Imamat: A Signature in History", a Q&A session was held in which a short recap of Signature as well as answers to some written questions were presented, followed by an open Q&A. We are pleased to make the videos of these available for the Jamat. The younger Jamat, especially in the West, do not often find traditional, philosophical arguments for God and the Imamat intellectually satisfying. "The Ismaili Imamat: A Signature in History" is a new, highly acclaimed, objective assessment of the Ismaili Imamat's authenticity using a fresh, ground-breaking approach inspired by the fundamental principle that faith is, and always has been, evidence based. We are confident it will be of particular interest to parents, young adults, youth, especially high school and university students as well was the wider Jamat.

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life) What I learned from my late sister's battle with cancer
QUIETLYROMANTIC.COM -- To many of us, death is an abstract thing that we believe is so far in the future that it's not even worth thinking about. Maybe it's worth thinking about it. No man is an island, and your relationships are one of those few things that truly matter in this world. Give your family and friends a call. Because you never know when it's your last chance to talk to them. We live in a world where being overworked is almost like a badge of honor. [But] people regret working so hard that they missed out on all their relationships, just like that old song "Cat's in the Cradle". ...

Things Don't Make The Man
DAILYSTOIC.COM -- It's very easy to associate our possessions and our positions with our identity. There's even an expression to that effect: The clothes make the man. When we have a powerful job, we feel powerful. It's only when the screw turns that we realize how dangerous this has all been. The Stoics remind us that things don't make the man. Not now, not ever. Just because someone has more money than you doesn't make them superior. You're you. And you're not measured or made by externals, or anything that is outside your control. What matters is what you do with the choices and situations that are inside your control. ...

If Hazar Imam's advice resonates with you, then OTBT, TT and WW are for you. To date we have posted almost 600 videos, articles and quotes of little-known, unconventional, even controversial, knowledge, opinions, wisdom and insights, drawn from all of humanity, relevant to the community's well-being, intellectual and spiritual growth, as well as administrative best practices.

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
