Radhika i partly agree to your views, BUT you cant afford to neglect the world affairs, esp when world is now a small place. islam is not a religion but a way of life...which has to be adhered not matter what. my collegue who is from kashmir was feeling quite good following the recent bomblasts in india...guess what he is a phd in biological sciences. so despite his education he cant see the fairness of life...why because the way he was brought up by islam. this will be a serious problem for your future generations
