I just discovered that Muslims in the Southern part of Nigeria are peace loving people. Their families even have both faiths- xtians and Muslims and they love one another. You hardly hear of killings or hatred as we have in the Northern part of Nigeria. I begin to wonder if different holy books are used by Southern & Northern Muslims. Kindly contribute. Is it that politics has come into religion in the north or what? I also what to know if any Holy book recommend killing of one another.

Great question.I would say that the reason for the peaceful coexistence of the two faiths in the southern regions of the nation lies with the more evolved spiritual state of the people involved.The more spiritually evolved one becomes, the more peaceful, tolerant and loving one gets towards all mankind no matter how different hey are to them.Such people have risen above the petty little differences based on religious doctrinal differences and have seen the bigger picture that we are all one, that the religious differences are illusions that are not worth clinging on to and fighting for, and they live their lives this way.

Only folks who are not spiritually evolved, who still live in and controlled by their own ego, fight over religious differences, and get manipulated by evil, shadowy people to cause havoc to their fellow man.

It is all about personal spiritual evolution,folks.
