It seems that people are fond of dividing all into various segments based on numerous issues such as nationality, religion, gender, income status, skin color, profession, country and so on. For the last 15 years or more, I have been working with the virtual world in different capacities, so I was lucky enough to get to know a number of associates across the planet. I became an active participant of some networking sites in the cyber world mostly on learning purposes rather than just spending my time on chatting.

As time went by I realized of how some blocs were becoming mounted up slowly on the aforesaid issues; once members of these groups become so cohesive, they don’t welcome others in the network but look at them aliens. Some members are keen on using religious facts directly or indirectly to simply indicate the components of their groups in order to keep the moderate away as much as possible.

When the world is developed, it is said that weak, small blocs in the real world become disappeared gradually, but strong, large blocs are come into being instead. Beyond, it is said that people become interested in focusing on common human issues rather than on individual or tribal issues. Unfortunately, the history moves in the reverse direction because people have divided not only materialistic world but also virtual world by using the same principles. Most of us would prefer talking about giant concepts like globalization, global village, global market, global language and so forth, but we are not unitary yet but separated terribly.  Thus, divide-and-live method has become the central way of life in the 21^st century.
