Of all the people, an Indian goes on a rant about Jihad. No Pakistani in this thread so far has brought Islam into the discussion. You are the one in denial, and you just proved you barely understand the history of Pakistan.
So by your argument, if you converted to Islam right now, your parents wont be related to you anymore???
I know the media is biased against Islam, but jeez, calm down on the dosage of Fox news, it really isnt good for you.
Thanking for the thread, not this post in particular.
On this side of the pond, until Ronald Reagan was elected, I was taught that I had a Greco-Roman heritage, since then all have heard about is being a Judeo-Christian.
The truth is, all of us are heirs of the human race.
Pakistanis, you are part of at least three historical traditions, the Islamic, or Abrahamic, however far back you trace it, the tradition of the Indian continent, which goes back to the Indus valley 5000 years ago, and the modern global civilization, which is drawing all humanity into its rule.
As Pakistanis, you are able to identify with any of these traditions, or all of them, but whatever you choose, get used to the schizophrenia.
Bharatis and Muslims should both note that Indian traditions and civilization have been interacting fruitfully with Islam for over a thousand years, both ways. India, in addition to having its indigenous tradition, has been a more integral part of Islamic civilization than Europe has, until recently, when Islam's relation to the Global culture resembles India's relation to Islamic culture.
It is not amusing that the worst hatreds of humans are between kinfolks. Peace, love and wisdom be upon you
