One simple question
by Suresh on Sep 17, 2007 01:15 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

All I want to ask my muslim brothers is one things. What comes first - Your Religion or Your Country. Answer this first, because in Hyderabad the Majlis, which has 5 MLAs and one MP in the Lok Sabha has said that his religion comes first and then the country. And this is the part which Congress has a tie-up with and considers as a Secular Party. My Foot.

How this is related to Campus violence Mr Suresh unless you suffer from Religiophobia and need immediate hospitalisation.

Message for both Mohd Khan & Muhammed Akhtar - I guess you both need not be so pertubed.For Muslims , it always has been religion over country.Accept it.Lets not get into the ethical and relative debate about Jews , Hindus & Christains.Its not the point.Look at all the strive and bloodshed even relative to as you would wish to compare with the Hindus, your guys have topped the chart.I surely dont support what Narendra Modi has done in Gujarat.But i guess , for your kind it always has been religion over country.I guess that always has been and that always will be.60 years of history post independence has been a testimonial to this fact.I going by the next 60 more years , it surely would be the same.So relax and take a chill pill.Be what you are , for that whats you were :)

I suppose this debate completely 'cliche'd !
Fundamentalists and religious fanatics whether Islamic, Christian or Hindu, around the world have only one agenda - keep the world divided.
How else do they further their vested interests !
Please do not get carried away by what the INC or the BJP are saying about the Sethu project. There are heavy under currents of regional politics ( the DMK is the culprit ) in the whole affair ! As for the violence in AMU, when have this institution been peaceful and presented a conducive atmosphere to serious students ! Allah jane !

Dear Suresh,
What comes first for you, Your father or your mother?
Stop asking such idiotic and much repeated grunts which has bombarded muslims continously for the last 50-60 years.
This is not a race, first or second! Some things are mutually exclusive, they have their own reverence and respect, and none being less than the other, like your father and mother, like your country and your religion,
Get it in your head now! and give us a break!

Of course - if it comes to national security -Hindus and Sikhs will give up every tenet of their religion. I have religious Sikh friends in Army who cut their hair , got circumcised, ate beef and lived with Jehadis in Kashmir resulting in huge catches. This is how Kashmir is still with us and terrorism is down. And mind it - these guys voluntarily chose to do what they had to do. This is just an example. I also know of lot of muslims who are as dedicated to the nation. This question was to you and not to muslims in general. You have failed the test.

Yes - Hindus who take up nationality of other nations are no longer Indians. We expect them and want them to be loyal to countries they are citizens of in because that is their Dharma. We will not feel sad that in their line of duty they have to act against India because Gita tells us to do our duty even if you have to act against your brothers. Do you have your answer now ?

You are talking all this bull crap of internationalism because you know you personally have no loyalty to India.

So Hindus who took nationality of other countries should be called Traitors? The Whole thing is that God / Bhgwan / Allha / has created Universe / Brhmma/ Alam and the boundries are created by selfish humans for their own benefits..look at the no of states we have now and how many we had in 1950..all want to become a C.M. and look this country..so help / love fellow humans the way u do it for u r brothers and sisters..And God will help u..

Hm. If you were to ask them "Nation" or "Ram Sethu" - I guess they would go for "Nation". And by the way "Ram Sethu Incident" - what do you mean by Incident? Aren't these organizations taking up the Hindu cause? Would you take up the Hindu cause?

I don't wish to answer issues related to what muslims would in a hypothetical situation...because I don't want to pay the price every muslim pays in their daily lives for the action of fanatics across the world. Hope that answers.

As far as media is concerned - I trust the ENglish language channels including CNNIBN and NDTV. Thats my personal choice and no amount of "facts" showing ownership by Martians , Pymies , Vatican and leperchauns is going to chang that.

Point well taken. BJP MPs must present this data in all newspapers ; raise this in question hour and ensure that those responsible give justification. And if they don't - make a hungama around it. They won't because they started the project.

Making a tamasha on the streets only helps lumpens of Bajrang Dal highjack the issue.

well - best way is to donate to various charities ( secular , non religious ones ) and I do that. I have a business to run and money to make which enables me to do that.
