I am sorry but I do not get what was insulting about my post?

Oh man, that's hilarious :rofl: On a more serious note though, I find it disconcerting to say the least that (several if not all) even well educated muslims refuse to question what I percieve as the flawed interpretation of Allah's word by Mullahs bent on protecting their own interests...

I really doubt if Allah would have intended it this way, but the human interpretation of several of the rules is illogical... A simple example would be calling for extermination of pagans unless they convert to Islam (this obviously human interpretation supercedes the tolerant nature of Allah)...

which brings me full circle to the original question that if Allah's rules are prone to ambiguous/incorrect interpretation, how can a set of rules (some of which , please do admit, may seem to be a little illogical at times) be rigidly applied? What Allah said is infallible...what you and I...

C'mon guys.... Any feelings of jingoism apart, Tata Motors has created something really innovative...Wouldn't you yourself be glad to see middle/lower middle-class families in Pakistan upgrade from a unsafe two wheeler to a relatively safer car...A car that is within their budget?

The idea behind this post was that that the case I talked about is more of a rule rather than an exception...... In fact Parsis/Sikhs and to a certain extent christians tend to be more affluent/well educated than Hindus.... If there is a relative dearth of well educated Muslims today , it's...

The media is market driven after all... Let me put it this way Jana... forget the media for a second...let's talk about the regular folks you see on the street....Say if you were to visit Bangalore, you will find - there are a some women (mostly muslim) who would be covered from head to toe in...

I do not know why I am even writing this as I know this thread will most likely degenerate in a mindless flame war but nevertheless.... But first some background...I stumbled upon this forum by accident and have been reading through several of the threads for the past several hours and I am...
