’ They have looted your virtue. They have taken your moralities away from you. We have to return your virtue to you at first.’’ This is what Khomeini said in one of his first nonsense lectures. Referring to this and the recently achieved forth place in divorce in the world ( Which means the collapse of family values), we should, as a nation of inherent values, ask ourselves why God and religion have become our plague? Why we are not going to have a comprehensive look at ourselves in the mirror of our history? Why we are about to turn into a nation of indifference, submission and self-annihilation? And above all, are we going to continue in the same way and be the negligent witness of our time-honoured values rattling and falling apart day by day?
Iran has recently been ranked as the forth country in divorce in the world! Can you believe it? A society that has been fenced and guarded by all kinds of religious tools and religious guardians, now has felt a warning convulsion , caused by a powerful implosion, which undoubtedly and willy-nilly will be followed up by some really devastating explosions.
As the aftermaths of divorce in Iran are radically different with those of Western societies, it can be taken as the beginning of the moral demise of a society that has already been verged to some irreversible and irredeemable situations. Divorce in Iran means total devastation and mere frustration for the couples and plaintively it means a real disaster for the poor children, who would be exposed to all kind of diminishing social problems and psychological twists.
I am not going to go any further with this subject; instead I would like to know more about it from your point of view now that by the courtesy of God and the Mullahs we have been honoured to be ranked as the FORTH COUNTRY IN DIVORCE in the world ! What does it mean to us?
