When did jamaat get enough votes to form a govt. Forget forming a govt in the center, they have never won enough seats to fill a row of seats in the national assembly.

Pakistan doesnt claim to be secular, India does. You yourself are against secular and liberals like Nadeem Paracha.

Religious parties got enough power to bring laws like Huddod Ordinance and its not about forming government at center. If we read Constitution of Pakistan, these religious parties were able to get inserted certain clauses against minorities, which shaped the society we are living today.

As the issue under discussion is treatment of minorities, we should consider our own country and its minorities. From burning of Christian couple to killing of Salman Taseer coupled with glamorising his murderer (his naat CDs sold like hot cake. More popular than Hydrabad’s Bomaby Bakery cake). How come we are able to tag other country fascist and defend ours for same treatments met by minorities?

I’m not against secularism and liberalism. I’m against the type of secularism preached by likes of Paracha, which doesn’t respect religious sentiments of others. I’m all for secularism when it allows all religious factions exercise their religion and religious sentiments are not mocked at.
