I'm an Atheist myself, Perhaps that's why his message kind of resonate with me, I feel strongly on the notion that state and religion need to be separate for human advancement, Organized religion based governance invariably leads to fascism, Doesn't matter which religion it is
Fair call that...
First of all thank you for engaging in a fruitful discussion without being abusive and avoiding conflicting idea's, Will check out @MariamChughtai for further insights

Lol.. You’re in no position to dictate anything here.. Unless and until @WebMaster decides that PDF is exclusively Pakistani and a Islamic forum.. We will keep posting as long it does not contravene the rules.. I’m aware there is a concerted effort from a few to make this another fundamentalist...
Neither have Modi.. But their actions and policies says otherwise.. But then again this is a global phenomenon most govt are turning more nationalist some ethno nationalists other religio nationalist, I fear this is a natural reaction to two decades of forced globalization from Western liberal...
Tks for this i have a broader view of the subject now, Although i do have reservations on how they're going to complement Science and research with compulsory religious studies, If certain aspects contradict each other
This is reason why Religious and other studies not over arch another, World...
Literacy rates in Pakistan are already on the decline, Probably the only country in the world it's happening in, How does theocratic education system work in this scenario ? Wouldn't a more expansive curriculum be the answer ? Any successful examples of such system ?
Pakistan literacy rate is already on the decline, This does not bode well for the nation, Pity given it's potential

India is a land of extremes.. Abject poverty living right beside extreme wealth, Like some one mentioned earlier.. It's how you experience it.. It doesn't need to be wholly negative like this video which is more like propaganda than a travelogue
Harassment of women in public is another issue...
Lol
The thread is about another heinous gang rape in India, How am i deflecting it on to India ? Australia for that matter is not mentioned any where in the OP
I was never defensive, I condemn rape in any form
You on the other hand are throwing hissyfits and whataboutory, Rather that...
No one defended rape here, Just highlighted the extra ordinary high incidents of gang rape in India, and these just the reported ones, With social ills like abuse of Dalits and the status of women and corruption in the law enforcement which probably go unreported any no one can guess the real...
Simple case of rapes being reported against unreported ones, The whole world know the status of Women in India and the state of it's law enforcement, I would say not just India but South Asia as a whole, But Gang rape is a particularly widespread in India
Try again.. On both matters
Rape happens every where but Gang rape is a particularly wide spread phenomena in India unmatched by any other country as far as i know.. Makes it even more cowardly and dastardly
In the West it gets reported, And dealt with by law.. In places like India thousands...
What does it matter ? Still happened in India, And at that a so called more developed state Kerala, Usually Indians blame all their social ills on BIMARU states and try to portray the South as a veritable paradise,
Only when it comes to hygiene and perhaps cleanliness of the roads etc.. Otherwise they're the same breed of corrupt, self centered, Illogically superstitious morons
