The largest Muslim country in the world is Indonesia and the second largest is not Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt, or Pakistan. It is India. With some 150 million Muslims, India has more Muslims than Pakistan. But here is an interesting statistic from9/ 11: There are no Indian Muslims that we know of in al- Qaeda and there are no Indian Muslims in America's Guantanamo Baypost-9/ 11 prison camp. And no Indian Muslims have been found fighting alongside the jihadists in Iraq.Besides there are tensions, economic discrimination, and provocations, like the destruction of the mosque at Ayodhya[ by Hindu nationalists in 1992] and killing of innocent people in Gujarat. Whenever i read rediff posts what i can see is, there are few hindu extremist using bad languages and hatred and not even a muslim responding the same way.So the picture is clear,whatever the religion there are people with evil thoughts.
"Incurably religious, that is the best way to describe the mental condition of so many people" ~ Thomas Edison
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful. ~ Seneca the Younger
Matter and mind are not separate, they are aspects of one energy. Look at the mind as a function of matter and you have science; look at matter as the product of the mind and you have religion. ~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Religion gives you inner peace.' It doesn't necessarily solve any social problem.
