Point ‘onboard’

- Kenneth Solvalu,

Jan Nissar’s ongoing opinions on certain issues are inevitable, given our political situation in Fiji and the world.

For instance, at a particular kava session, for hours on end, the subject was on people’s undesirabl­e characteri­stics during social interactio­ns.

It’s a real pity, especially when ‘juicy’ fluent words were uttered passionate­ly, together with laughter to complement it.

In science, undeniable concrete evidence is paramount, to determine collective agreement. If there is no proof, there will always be skepticism. The same goes for religion, politics, business, etc.

Otherwise, anyone (or any Tom, Tyler and Tyrese) with dishonest, manipulati­ve, deluded personal agendas, could easily justify their cause (to their advantage), by using God’s name an “instructio­ns” to attract a religion or movement etc. and amass millions of submissive gullible followers.

Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think – Albert Einstein (sourced from a stall in Suva).
