In Ayodhya many muslims are managing the Hindu temples and Dharam sthals and at Amarnath shrine Muslims are beneficiaries....If the same is possible then we will understand the aspirations of each others and both the communities will be benefitted tremedously.......!

You are a good soul, no doubt and your wish is commendable.

Secular countries like India can have leaders of any faith with following in other communities. Turkey, Tunisia and some other mainly Muslim nations have secular constitutions and there is no problem for the non Muslims to come to the center stage of politics in these countries. Some Muslim nations have adopted constitutions inspired by Islam and call themselves Islamic nations. They cannot be lead by non Muslims, those who don't subscribe to the ideology upon which the state is formed.

There is a great need for interfaith dialogue between the people of different faiths to understand others better. We have to be careful of the fanatics among all communities as any such move will not be in their best interests. Creating anti Muslim and anti Christian frenzy helps the Hindu fanatic leaders to keep sway upon their masses and also polarise the Hindu vote in favour of the right wing Hindu political parties like the BJP. This atmosphere has already been created in certain states of India where violence against the Christians and Muslims is being systemetically unleashed.

Even the recent upsurge of terror attacks in different cities appear to many like me a planned conspiracy by Hindu right wing to polarise the votes along religious lines. Are the Indian Mujahideens really Muslims? Why have they started their dirty attacks only now when the General Elections are so near? Why so much eagerness to stress upon their 'Indian' origin? Blaming lashkare Toeba (?) and other organisations across the border doesn't anger an average Hindu against Indian Muslim as they know these organisations are all from Pakistan. They don't help polarise the Hindu vote. It is only a hate campaign against Indian Muslims and creating a fear complex against them which can unite the Hindu votes for certain political parties claiming to champion Hindu interests.Which political party is going to reap this harvest of hate?



Many sensible Hindus think on these lines but don't express their doubts publicly.



Meanwhile, I appreciate your views. However, it will need a group of people like you to educate the people and create an atmosphere of tolerance and mutual harmony.

It's spineless people like you who have no respect for peace that compare a violent ideology like Islam with Hinduism and go so far as to suggest that muslims should lead the Hindus. Why don't you do every one a favour and take a hike! Peace only happens when a stalemate is reached not by submitting to a violent ideology. Don't call yourself a Hindu!

I hate pseudo seculars who think all religions are morally equivalent when there are clearly those that are more violent and the instigators. One need only see the incidents around the world to see it. Open your eyes to the truth!

Your cowardice and unwillingness to fight against oppressive ideologies does not mean that you are peaceful!

costly buddy, you have noted particular examples with regard to the religious heads of Christian community (Roman Catholic). Please understand that mere bringing up particular befell/unhappened activities do no longer constitue the needed fact of any religious community. you need to learn, understand and make your self assessment no remember if those data carry any weight to stay with the direction or no longer. without going for the period of the credited data and figures one won't be able to attain a end. Christianity, between the oldest faith stood for romance, compassion, tolerence and above all of the concept of robust and stable concept. you need to take examples of many many Christian Saints who had great fee which you have forgotten or omitted. it quite is no longer basically saints yet in addition Christian cummunity itself ordinary many fee based activities for the mankind. finding fault with others are quite uncomplicated, yet appreciation for the nice and exemplory issues are from the begining to till date. i'm particular you will understand the underlying ideas in any faith and can come out with fairly place earlier making such comments. Are you particular with regard to the data you have noted? the present style is to remark earlier going and exploring the actual data it quite is I evaluate is risky to the human form. Regards,

India is a democratic country and Muslims have already been voting for Hindu MPs/ MLAs since independence.



As for you gesture I appreciate you. There are several incidence which reflects our "GANGA-JAMUNI" culture but unfortunately they remained un- noticed and un- attended by the media.



Some of them are ........

The problem is in politics for Muslim & Hindu vote banks.



[ Govt is in doldrums whether to ban Bajrang Dal just for the sake of Hindu vote bank.]





India needs guys like you who have a courage to talk about both the communities & to reconcile the differences.
