In an ancient Temple, a number of pigeons lived happily on the roof top.

When renovation of the Temple began for the annual feast, the Temple pigeons relocated to a Church nearby.

The resident pigeons in the Church accommodated the new comers very well.

When Christmas was approaching and the Church was being given a facelift, all the pigeons had to move out to look for another place.

They were fortunate to find a place in a Mosque nearby, where they were happily welcomed by the pigeons resident in the Mosque.

When it was Ramadan time and the Mosque was being repainted, all the pigeons returned to the ancient Temple.

One day, the pigeons witnessed communal clashes in the market square below.

A baby pigeon asked its mother pigeon: "Who are those fighting below?"

The mother replied: "They are 'human beings'."

The baby pigeon then asked,
"But why are they fighting each other?"

The mother said:
"The human beings who go to the Temple are called 'Hindus', the ones who go to Church are called 'Christians', while the ones who go to the Mosque are called 'Muslims'."

The baby pigeon asked,
"Why is it so? When we were in the Temple, we were called Pigeons; when we were in the Church, we were called Pigeons; and when we were in the Mosque, we were called Pigeons. So shouldn't they similarly just be called 'human beings' wherever they go?"

The mother pigeon replied:
"You, me and our Pigeon friends have experienced God and that's why we are living here in this highly elevated place peacefully.

These people are yet to experience God.

Hence they are fighting and killing each other when they are all human beings created by the same God whom they all claim to serve. Perhaps there will be peace if they refer to themselves simply as human beings instead of seeing themselves as Hindus, Christians or Muslims."

Now go get your PVC so we can elect human beings that will stop these senseless killings.
