Longest lie ever told

Rev. Dr. T J Joshua wrote in his Manorama column Innathe Chinthavishayam that three words are the most powerful to bring change in the world: I am wrong. If it is true in relation to individuals, it must be true to communities, nations and civilizations. Recently it was reported after a study of 20000 people that most racists are religiously conservative people. Those who consider themselves spiritual are often most selfish. Cultures and civilzations are really built on terror and brutality, injustice and exploitation. Will we able to say that our cherished institutions, religions, traditions are wrong. Then only these words prove to be powerful and our world takes the path of truthfulness. An impossible possibility. Nietzche said, truth is the longest lie we ever told. We need to say we are wrong, our spirituality, institutions, culture and whatever we have built up on what Jesus told, hypocrisy. Dr. K. M Roy has written in Mangalam an apt essay on the nature of Spirituality of Kerala religious leaders.
