Re: # 10

> ...India is not Synononymous wih Hindu ..
True.

> although you wish it was ...
we have no problems with it being synonymous with hindus, xtians, buddhists, jains, sikhs.
we only have problems with it having any trace of islam. The rest, we know, will live together
and keep strengthening this great civilization.
I dont need to tell you about Islam.

Have a nice day.

Re: # 4

``These Muslim clerics are an embarassment to themselves and those they profess to speak for``. The clerics may be an embarassment but Islam to put it mildly is an pestilence.

The problem my dear chap is Islam not Muslims, or should I say it is not Chauhan it is Salim.

A nice link for your reference.

Awaiting yur return.

And pls no bullsh!!t about how 12times Gr8 grand pappy was impressed by Aurangzebs pety and converted. Actuaaly what happened was that after yrs of producing valiant braves your Clan produced a scum weakling who thought it better to cut of his foreskin than his head.

Possibly you can reverse this let them cut my head but not my son`s foreskin. Purvajon ke pappon ka prayaschit karna har vanshaj ka dharam hai

Re: # 6

Ek bangali Isai bantaa hai aur profartic abrahmic creeds ko Dharam se compare karta hai aur mulya tathyo ke bare me janta nahin.

Doosra kaminist banta hai aur dharam ko hi gali deta hai.

Throw Bengal out of the Union. Give all Probasi Bengalis a one way ticket to West Bangla and separate Gorkhaland from them.

Shantanu Dutta is a Bengali sounding name.

Shantanu Dutta

No one, except the Islamic Republic of Pakiland, has the legitimate authority to determine who is and who is not a Muslim.

Having gotten that piece of wisdom off my chest, may I ask if the last name Dutta is the same as Dutt and does that make you a Hussaini Brahmin?

No malice intended. By the way, I agree with your article. These Muslim clerics are an embarassment to themselves and those they profess to speak for.

I agree. We all are guilty of stereotyping. It`s a human nature to mentally segregate objects or people into different compartment and label them. It`s pattern searching. Outward expressions of your convictions, like wearing religious symbols just makes it more easy to categories a person.

Re: Article
This has little to do with stereotyping. A bunch of guys wanted to takeover the trust that Pataudi controls. They gave it their best shot. It’s just that Pataudi called the local Quazi over for drinks and they decided that to stop the bid. People try worse things for a lot less money.

Faruk
