The menace of self righteousness is eroding the mutuality and tolerance of already weakened and divided Pakistani society.We have to face this destructive attitude in every walk of life.Religion and politics are important to mention as they are directly linked with every individual.A self righteous individual is a severe threat to the peace of any society.Be it conservative,liberal or secular society.
Shakespeare's delineation of Antonio as self righteous and sanctimonious person(through one perspective )who spits upon Shylock,calls him misbeliever and cut throat dog, shows the harms that self righteous men do.
Those societies where weaknesses(sins,evils and vices)of 'others'are magnified,are destined to destroy themselves.
It is better to be a humble sinner than a self righteous saint.
