The Generation of Knowledge and Freedom

Present cannot be neglected; neither the past can be considered to be the element of building and ideals. Camels cannot be still regarded as the means of transportation while having modern transportation. Post mail also cannot be considered better than cell phones. And the Katatib (classical teaching institutes intended to teach Islamic and Quran studies) cannot be adopted as a tool for modern education; neither can they be dealt with as superior to schools and universities, and the same goes with measuring time depending on the shade and the movement of the moon and the stars while having devices for measuring eclipse, winds, rough waters, temperature, and rains on the long run.
It is ridiculous to assume that treatment by means of cupping, leeching, cauterization, and herbs can be counted on instead of hospitals, medications and research centers which could defeat many diseases. It is also illogical to think of saddlers and firewood and coal-oil to be better than the new electric stoves and microwave devices and others, the same also goes with preferring the hand cooling device instead of the modern cooling devices.
Perhaps what today's community - or the youth generation that communicates on the recent events and the new sciences, and thinks globally - understands from the above lines is merely the names.
While the present generation was able to achieve the development of one thousand years in a decade, thoughts, relations and circulation of knowledge do not go counterclockwise; mandate and the monopoly of the authoritative fatherhood have fallen before the dialogue and the adoption to the hypothesis of the modern developments.
Many people still believe that every fast and positive development should be inspected by the past vision, and thoughts, and that situations and attitudes should be judged over based on the ethicality of such achievements and their suitability for the life of the community. This was the reason behind the gap between generations and the arising conflict between a vivid present and a classical past. Perhaps it is the cultural motive that was the factor causing the political and social revolutions, where young people presented the pushing power in changing such sluggish trends.
Radio stations and writers used to be sources of fear, and two tools of warfare between the political systems. However, the new reality changed the visions and the attitudes, and brought a new patter into being; as with the availability of information no matter to which extent is considered classified, being transmitted by such modern tools, uncovering everything; nothing is to be banned once the individual or communal or any inhumane act is being transmitted by means of the modern capturing devices to the modern media overcoming all hurdles.
As the same as the banned agitating poetry, books, magazines or newspapers which used to be confiscated in the name of the national security, science now opens the horizons for the banned, and the unbanned , knowledge . And only here the globalization of thoughts and internationalization of information came to be the source of power for all nations.
