Well said.The best way to solve all problems of India is to embrace anew religion called "Constitutionalism". This new religion is founded by me and I am its Prophet.This has nothing to do with God. All my followers will abide by the following principles: 1.Thou shall not follow me bilndly or have blind faith in me. 2.Thou shall reflect on what I say and believe it only after testing it on the anvil of logic and reason. 3.Thou shall have the right to differ with me and point out if I am wrong. 4.Thou shallst disown verses of the Quran which preach hatred against non-muslims and ask muslims to fight and kill non-muslims and are thus against modern constitutional values. 5.Thou shall reject those verses of Hindu scriptures which preach inequality of castes and promote caste based on birth and thus are against modern constitutional values. 6. Thou shall reject those verses of Quran/Manu Smriti or any other scriptures which make deraogatory references to women and preach inequality of men and women and thus,violate constitutional values. 7. Thou shallst disown and oppopse all verses of all religious scriptures which go against the Constitution, Science, reason and logic. 8. Though shallst campaign against publication of scriptures such as Quran (which incites muslims to hate non-muslims and contains derogatory references to women) and Manu Smriti(which preaches casteism and contains derogatory references to women)
