What brings you here in PDF

[blood]

you should have a 7th option as "to know pakistan"
because most of the indians come here for the same reason.

 

[Punjabbi Munda]

Well my GK improved a lot from reading threads on PDF and it has reflected on the entrance exams i gave as well.
General knowledge is my answer!

1. Military, particularly military history and military organization, doctrine and deployment;
2. Social issues (I wish it had been differently phrased and allowed me to underline history);
3. National politics.

Having said that, much has happened since I joined.

My concentration on military matters is in tatters today. I have got sidetracked.

My willingness to engage in discussions on history, and to some extent on social issues, has led me to return to my history books and start to re-educate myself. I was taught sharp lessons in regional history by some Pakistani interlocutors, always couched in the most polite language, so I have made a major investment of time and effort in re-examining historical and social issues. My views have changed, in minor ways on the whole, but substantially on the IVC, the Aryan Invasion Theory and on Kashmir. The last to some extent due to Moderate Voice of Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh.

National politics has been the unpleasant unsuspected ingredient X as the existence of the Internet Hindu, hinted at in PakTeaHouse, has been flung open to the paying public.

Some have said they joined to understand Pakistan and the Pakistani better. I do believe that an early and extremely kind introduction to this country and its citizens had already occurred in Adil Najm's All Things Pakistan, and in Raza Rumi's PakTeaHouse. I squirm to think that I must have been insufferably self-assured when i joined here, but that was not my fault; that was entirely thanks to the care and nurturing, and genuine affection, that we indians all got on those two forums. Now on our private list, Insaniyat, that very high level conversation continues, with my playing the role of the dumb blonde and staying out of the way of the big boys.

Well, many forums including Pakistan politics can offer but this place has many international communities and arguments.

Pakistan topics is just boring and same story but find interesting international discussions for different countries than own country.

Yes, why not? Who's perfect? I've learnt a lot about good manners. It isn't shameful to better oneself, surely?

I came here for one reason, but my experience here has been an unwanted education that has radically changed my ideals. Ironically, I just posted about that. I would feel sad about it, but I guess I shouldn't. The scales have fallen from my eyes.
