As UTD said, the Texas Senate recently had an imam lead prayers. The California legislature"offers prayers from other traditions, including from the Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist and Christian faiths"

Good to know this. What was the occasion?

@Seminole

So by your reasoning we shouldn’t pretend respect for any of these people because of past actions? Or even current ones? Respect is not black or white. Pregnant or not pregnant. There are degrees and we should welcome respect and tolerance when we have it.

Respect should not be tied into policies. Its human behavior.

@Seminole

And African. Let’s not keep forgeting our brothers in Darfur.

Sorry.

@Seminole

It is not fair to box Hindus into “India only”. Just because majority are in India does not make everything Hindu Indian.

If I were to ask show one Hindu country in this world, what would be your answer? Just like Jordon or Egypt having secular structures are still considered muslim countries, why because of the majority population.
