No it means that Ram Thakur lives in a village which it is predominantly hindu, he cannot remember how far his religious affiliation goes but he sells small religious figurines and parsad to be given at the local temple.
Feroz was a friend of mine in school in India. His father was an islamic history professor at DU.
The point is that culture and influence that has been there for thousands of years cannot be eroded by supplanting with new and denying your past. embracing it makes your existence a lot more tangible and realistic.
Humayun's tomb in delhi is Indian. That is my point.
All this questions about History, Culture, Ethnicity, Roots and Skin will leads to topics wrong doings of past , false prestige and Concept behind Nation formation.
In conclusion you are required to realize and start adopting changes quickly and move along. If you don’t, that will fellow with topics failed nation, Fundamentalist and Terrorism.

It means dear chanda that religion is a personal thing. But culture is an amalgamation of historical influence. They are separate things. this is why Pakistanis are second class citizens in Arabia...

Dont put your mouth in motion before your brain is in gear! Would you like to visit my uncles house in ryiadh and see how he lives? YOu would soon enough choke on your arrogance filled words ohh and besides, the Sanskrit language is a dead language attested only in written works
several thousands of years old. Latvian still exists.
As for your rants about culture and religion and foroz and god knows what, listen up please someone once told me "Each to his/her own devices" ... Now kindly stop Paki Bashing and why dont you have a nice cup of tea and rest that little infalted ego of yours... Before you burst!

Hey Matsui, i know you would love an insultave arguement, because that the only think you can comprehend. But why should i stoop to your level.
Why don’t your understand, your posts make no sense! We were talking about Islamic governments, yet you derailed the whole discussion. Why? Well it’s my guess that you don’t have any answers or intelligent questions/ comments to add to this discussion. I have seen one thing in your posts that you always refer to others when posting, why is that I wonder? Perhaps you have an inferiority complex! And thus you react by making a chimera of an inflated ego to boast and brag!
The question here being, time to tell me what have you achieved my friend? Instead of quoting others!
And I am glad you are not an ambassador for India, because you would have failed to represent your people miserably. I am glad I know other Indians who are so different to you, and thus it shows that how wrong your views really are...
I revere the teachings of Ghandi, and have read many books by him, also some of his essays. But I would have thought that Indians: Being the intellectual powerhouses they are could at least present a competent argument instead of misquoting, insulting and inciting animosity!
Closing remarks: Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. -Douglas Adams

Ohh please, thats school boy stuff!, And you claim to have wit! People like you dont stand a chance of ever compiling a sensical comment, why? Well the trouble with you is that you lack the power of conversation but not the power of speech.
Furthermore: I would like to take you seriously, but to do so would be an affront to your intelligence.
Now kindly toddle along, get in that cab that you drive for a living and start counting your pennys.
Ehh, No thanks… I dont know about you but the thought of what you just said dosnt look or sound very apealing to me, But hey whatever tickles your feathers. I am glad your showing your true colours by coiming down to spouting gratuitous vulgarities. Atleast we know how far you read at school enough to know where your rectum is.
I must say, this is quite astounding that i see you at a total loss for words.. This proves to me that your a mental midget with the IQ of a fence post .
Ohh before i go, since you have a news stand in the US or wherever: I should tell you there having a end of season sale at the cerebral department. Go grab one while stocks last!
It was in response to your remarks as qouted bellow:
It was simply to let you know, that mabey you just see the Pakistani’s who drive the lorries, but there are coutless examples of Pakistanis being embraced by arabs.
So please dont get carried away next time and spurt out the first thing that comes to mind, and mabye then such pethetic arguments can be avoided.
How many rich uncles do you have in Riyadh, are they as many as there are camel jockeys from Pakistan, India and Bangladesh? How come there aren;t arab camel jockeys? Beneath them?

Most Indians (we have MANY here in Dubai), are very easy to deal with, hardworking. Sorry guys, but Pakestan people also work hard but they are harder to “discipline”
