Referring to bold part in your mail: What ever be the optimal level, it would not be enough to OFF-SET the majority, in a country like Pakistan! Right! Saudia are NOT democratic by any yardstick, so they are out of question here. And as I mentioned Indian scene is quite different to that of Pakistan or Saudi Arabia.
I am also endorsing the same point that Maudoodi ideology is not acceptable in India. Simmiler is the case with RSS and thier idealogues.

You are basically saying a watered down version of the following:
...where Muslims are in a majority, they brand secularism as anti-Islamic and a threat to Islam and its followers, but where they are in a minority, they regard it as a blessing. Furthermore, where they are in a minority, they seem to argue for a secular state but, at the same time, insist that Muslims must remain safe from secularism.
Instead of the term 'anti-Islam' you are saying 'anti-majority'. Now the question is, just to rephrase what Abir has raised, how much majority is good enough for secularism. Or for that matter, what is the difference between 97% majority, 80% majority or 51% majority?
How much minority is enough to 'off-set' the majority. (If minority can off-set the majority, it would no longer be minority and will itself become majority.)
