RE:RE:RE:Get your facts right Mr. Francois Gautier

The killing of innocents is evil...be it Muslims in Gujarat(2002) or Sikhs in punjab (1984) or of buddhists (11 century AD north India) or hindus (in pakistan and bangladesh)

We have to understand that despots are despots regardless of religion

1)Hinduism cannot lay claim to be the best religion unless it addresses the equality of Dalits, OBCs, etc

2) Islam too cannot lay claim to be the best religion as muslims cannot live peacefully with any other religion (be it hinduism in India/Pakistan/ Bangladesh or judaism in israel or ethnic chinese in Ulghir province of china or with christians in US/UK/Russia

3) If spreading equality was the only motive of islam than how is that the muslim hordes laid waste to Takshashila and nalanda which were populated by buddhists... buddhism treats everyone equally unlike Hinduism

Why did muslims occupy the temple mound in Jerusalem and build the Al-Aqsa mosque there?

Why did muslims occupy Constantinople and convert churchs into mosques???

Why do muslims discriminate between shia/sunni??

Why are ahmadias not considered as muslims in Pakistan???

Why does the baburnama boast that thousands of temples were desecrated and mosques were built upon it??

I can quote similar examples for all religions

The blunt truth is that all religions are great... it is the radicals, dictators and despots who use religion for their selfish ends

So instead of hurling abuses at each other let us strive to reform ourselves irrespective of our religion
