SUBJECT: Students ' evaluation of the issue of inter religious discrimination in the Lebanese society
Here is the report on inter religious discrimination that you requested on July 25,2013.
The report shows that the students are familiar with the societal abuses and the religious dilemma. At the end of the report, I 've made several recommendations regarding asking the government for the human rights and setting politics aside, and ameliorating the dialogue between the different entities,
I enjoyed working on this assignment, Dr. Maha, and learned quite a bit from my analysis that life is simpler than how we opt to live it. At last, we are all humans of equal rights no matter what race, social level, or religion we belong to. Please let me know if you have any questions about the report.

INTRODUCTION
When the church 's bell rings and the mosque 's speaker sings in Downtown Beirut, tourists from all over the world get touched by the blessings that Lebanon engulfs, those blessings that we call today religions. Despite the politics that radically enforces discrimination between inter religious entities, Lebanese people still arm themselves with their last weapon, hope.
