sister xena, yes u have some valid points regarding the crusades etc but since u talk of demonising, tell me then reagarding the attack on nankana gudwara in pakistan if lets say for example that 100 sikhs were killed by muslims, wud there or not be a baklash against muslims in indian punjab??? wud the sikhs not reatliate??? wud they not then also allow the hurt and pain to overwhelm them and then seek revenge???

singh on his posts regarding the attacks that unfortuantely took placea week and abit ago wrote that the sikhs were very angry. yes i totally agree that the attacks on sikhs by these thugs was disgusting but they were reacting to a situation. wud u be as concerned if they wudnt have attacked a single sikh but concentrated their efforts on muslims???

speaking of which last week in coventry a sikh youth worker was very badly beaten by a group of racist thugs who were chanting osama bin laden at him and his young nephew. i saw a picture of him and he looks like he is in a very bad way unfortunately. also today it was reported that the british hostage has been executed so i am sure that there will be a huge rise of religious/racist attaks on muslims and other asians who misguidedly the thugs think are muslim such as sikh people.

i cant understand how u can live in america and be so critical of white population. u shud be grateful, we shud all be grateful that we can live a higher quality of life there and not face no where near as many dangers as we can in our ancestrol homelands. thats doesnt mean we have to sell our religion and culture, no way. most westerners are ignorant of the differances between our religions, thats the sad fact.

reagrding sukpreet, i think he is just too full on. he seems to have an ideology that only thru christianity will people be loved by god/allah/rab/waheguru, thats nonsense!

live and let live is best practice. u take care sis.
