Fanaticism towards the beliefs and religions of others does not help to generate confidence in the grace of the belief and religion of one himself.
In his book "The Idea of Justice," Amartya Sen emphasizes that extreme devotion to one's own beliefs or the practices of other religions can hinder true understanding and acceptance. Instead of fostering confidence in one's faith, such fanaticism often breeds division and misunderstanding among different belief systems.
Sen suggests that the more one clings tightly to their ideologies without openness to others, the less likely they are to showcase the grace and integrity of their own beliefs. Encouraging dialogue and mutual respect is essential for cultivating a more harmonious society.
