They teach the truth at all levels. The only problem is, they teach edited truth and slip over the points of history which might go against Pakistan at lower levels of education or somehow justify Pakistan's actions at higher levels. But that is what every other country would do. You certainly...
Those people who are so worried about Urdu should start translating some books from English to Urdu because the quality of books in Urdu is extremely poor, in case you haven't noticed. So its a choice between substandard books and English books. Not national language and foreign language.
So...
Umm no offense meant but you didn't exactly say something which could be given a counter argument except by saying similar things about Chinese, considering this, his response was the best anyone could have given you. You basically told them that they are fools and everything they have been...
They are insanely divided and extremely prejudiced to do such a good thing and well some of the popular clerics actually support this madness secretly if not openly.
:D thanks for the advice. Lets see how long I can maintain it. Either ways I am going to get what I want. Knowledge. I don't care about winning some arguments. If someone would give me a better logic. I will take it and mix and mingle it with my own views. Making myself better. Why I would spend...
I remember reading this one of my Pakistan studies books some 8 years ago.
There was one topic which said that Kashmir should have been part of Pakistan because majority of population was Muslims.
And right below it was the topic saying Hyderabad should been part of Pakistan because its ruler...
Umm the question what part of my post were you talking about? Because this seemed totally irrelevant to what I was talking about or what the original topic was. However, I would have liked to to comment on what you had said anyways but I guess Not Sure has already said it all in this post:
If you believe the world isn't getting better then that is just a problem of point of view.
As far as the snowmen go. I never said I don't believe in God. I just said that I believe the time of (past) religions has passed and they have served their purpose. They won't take us any further than...
At that time humans were not as civilized as they are today. Even the best of civilizations like Romans were barbarians when compared to the humans of today. The justice system as well as the authority of state wasn't this strong and logical. Religions gave them better ideas. Based on justice...
Humanity didn't learn to live without religion. That is what we must learn now. Because religion 2000 years ago was something which actually made the humans better. Now a days it just makes them worse as far as I have observed.
Alcohol is an intoxicant. Which makes it same as other drugs for me at least. Something which is liked by a large number of people around the world doesn't make it good. So banning that isn't bad imho.
However, inclination of people towards religion in modern world is beyond comprehension...
So, was some legal action taken against the organization? Most probably it wasn't and even if it was taken it would have gone down because as I have repeated twice, there is no legal force behind that certificate. So when it doesn't even have a legal force how is it violating the authority of...
That is the point my friend. If someone can't afford to pay the fee. They shouldn't. Whats the big deal? I mean only 10% of population (Muslims) won't buy those products and even that depends on their choice. But if someone feels comfortable with that why take such a thing away from them and...
Ok, what I could find out was that there is some Islamic organization which issues halal certificates to the food products and such. And those nationalist Buddhist monks had problem with that while a Sri Lankan minister also spoke up about it.
To me it is pretty much obvious that those monks...
I agree with what you said there. But as you said yourself
Its a very sensitive topic.
And the point is even if Hitler was not worse than Churchill and others. He was as bad, that is for sure. Because there are no heroes of justice, at least, in international politics. So my question is what...
-_- Only if people were able to understand that religion might not actually be the driving force nowadays. But thats how we, Pakistanis, are brought up. The only thing that needs to be worked on is this, imho.
