Man, have you even read the article? What Aitzaz Ahsan and OP are saying is that the Indus Region (Pakistan) has historically been seperate and distinct from India (the Ganges and Dravidia), with its own culture, languages and ethnicities. They are actually agreeing with you. Dont know why you...

No one is saying that we have zero links to them. Of course we have links to them and share some similarities. However, overall the fact that we are ethnically, linguistically, culturally and historically different holds true. About linguistics, in excruciating detail, I have already replied...

Not to mention the fact that most of India has been under British rule for either 200 years or 150 years but Pakistan has only been under the British for 100 years (98 to be exact), when the British conquered the Indus territories at the end of the 1840s (which were again seperate from modern...

First of all the Kathak dance system isnt performed in Punjab and hasnt been part of the Indus culture. It mostly received patronage from the Mughals and was based in Uttar Pradesh or Rajasthan. Why dont you enlighten us as to what the 'Indus' dance form is and exactly how it is related to those...

This version of 'common' culture is just hogwash. By the same logic, all these so called Indian themes are actually universal. The Indus has been unique that before the arrival of Islam, the only time it was united with the Ganges Region and Dravidia was for 80 years under Buddhist Ashoka. Apart...

Yup, Pakistanis are fundamentally different than Indians being ethnically, linguistically, culturally and historically different. Long live the Indus Pakistan, home to one of the oldest civilizations and greatest cultures!

The type of Hinduism that was practiced in the Indus Region (Pakistan) was different to that of the Ganges and Dravidia. Adi Shankaraya, an 8th Century (something around that) marked the four corners of India and none of those corners were in present day Pakistan. Pakistan was more influenced...

The population of Pakistan: 180 Million The population of India: 1.2 Billion Still Pakistan has managed to hold it's own in all wars especially 1948 one when we had lesser resources, officers etc. due to partition but still captured half of the disputed area. This is a testament to the bravery...

Afghan stupidity has no limits. Millions of them have been provided with refuge and jobs in Pakistan, we helped them when the Soviets invaded and now they are bitching on about us. Namak haram qaum indeed.

Isnt that the same as a person saying that you have to be a believer to know what he means? I thought atheists did'nt believe in dogmas. The Spaghetti Monster thing logically fails as an analogy and is therefore stupid.

I dont know whats up with the 'Flying Spaghetti Monster' parody religion. It provides no analogy to deists or other religions. It relies on a logical fallacy. Spaghetti and meatballs are the physical creation of intelligent beings and could never exist outside of a human domain.

Yes we can see who has not only an identity crisis, but also a deep seated inferiority complex. Bollywood is primarily run by Punjabis from our side (Indus Region). Behind the camera, there are Karan Johar, Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Yash Chopra of Lahore. The Kapoor clan of Lyallpur, Dev Anand of...

India has the most curious idendity crisis. It is named after a river that has been historically seperate than its current terrotiries, only united for 80 years under Ashoka later 350 under Mughals and Sultanates and 100 under British. It is like the Germans naming Germany after River Thames in...

And the concept of God in most religions, including Abrahamic religions, is of a non-universal prescence that created humans (the only spiritual, concsious creatures in the universe) who are moral free agents that can do good or evil through conscious desicions and choose to live with Him...

Without religion, and I am talking about religion in general not any particular religion even deists, there would be no morality. Athiesm has no moral basis.

If anything, it was the ancestors of Indians that were forcibly converted to Hindoo-ism (which didnt even have a name before the British gave it one). It was a religion brought on by the invading Aryans to subjugate and oppress the native Dravidians into the barbaric caste system and make them...

Most of Pakistanis were not converted foricbly but converted by the efforts of various Sufi saints such as Baba Fariduddin Ganjshakar, Ali Hajwairi, Lal Shehbaz Qalandar, Sultan Bahu, Abdul Latif Bhittai etc. If foricble conversion had taken place, then all of India would have been Muslim by...

Rutta Qilla, Muzaffarabad The Red Fort, or Rutta Qilla as called by the locals, of Muzaffarabad was started by the Chak Dynasty of Kashmir in 1559. It was captured by the Mughals at the conquest of Kashmir in 1587 and was finally completed in 1646 by Sultan Muzaffar Khan Bomba, the ruler of...
