Some corrections

The author points that Secular fundamentalism leads to hindu fundamentalism and therefore islamic fundamentalism. Fundamentalism has been around mankind from about 786 A.D for sure. IF BJP is the epitome of hindu fundamentalism, it did start taking life ( 2 seats nationwide in 84) until indian version of islamic terror in kashmir.

So you should say, islamic fundamentalism gave rise to whatever "ideology/hatred" you want to call Prakash khan, ChinaRam yec-hury, maino, Raul Maino, that jerk in TN, RajJhoot Sardesai and ayesha ghosh,IUML, MIM,TMMK,SIMI, CPI(Muslim).

But the rise of this hatred has resulted in secular fundamentalism, so all the religions are treated one the same level.

BTW, there are no causes for islamic fundamentalism. It has introduced that way. Dont confuse the humanism( natural to all human beings) with the religion. A majority of the people who practice it are good people because they are humans and not because of some peaceful ideology. The violence comes because of the ideology that some of the muslims subscribe to
