I am not unhappy to be in the minority on this post as I still stand by what I said...
Arindhavanukku sol yaen, ariyaadhavanukku sol yedharkku?
I respond to the rest of your comments as follows - Read our constitution carefully. Our lawmakers provided enough safeguards... We lack the spine to enforce those safeguards as a collective...
I am not well read in law but common sense tells me that we decided 50-odd years ago to split into an Islamic state and a secular state... The meaning of secular state means " a state without a religion"... So far as the beliefs of a group are not opposed to public policy or the secular fabric of India, i could not care less... Which is why I would not support any anti-Indian organisation, regardless of their political, religious or any other affiliation...
Nationalism is merely an acquired force of habit... I am proud to be an Indian but I will never ever ENFORCE that privilege upon my fellow country person, whatever the cost... The day I believe he is no more acting in the interest of my country, I will willingly purge him for treason...
Like I said earlier in this post, whatever (belief) works for you that keeps your engines humming, go for it but leave me with the intent and ability to choose my own lawn mower...
Cheers
S
