Is India A Secular Nation?

Personally i don’t think it’s a pure secular state.

But then again not all secualr states are that succesfull anyway. If India is as liberal as brother Raj_ind says then why don’t in some areas Hindu’s allow for muslims to slaughter cattle? This is a state law wich forbids cow slaughter even in some muslim majority areas.
Then again i could be wrong and some of these crackdowns could have changed since i was last there.

One question you must ask yourselves though dear brothers is that is secularism a good thing?:halo:

Like democracy it can be a double edged sword. How? Well we all know how good democracy is don’t we?:wink:

Actually it’s founders were slaughtered and the truth of democracy lost to flagrant imperialism. These same so called western secularism lovers will soon see how they fall apart when someone farts during a religous or cultural parade or something.:p:D

Funny how these so called secular countries crack down on civil liberties in the name of common good? Yet they cannot name what the term means.

I think you should be free to believe what you will, just keep it to your patch of land and not enforce it on others if they don’t want it. If others willingly be part of you or vice vera then fine…

Peace to you all.
