And how is that 'muslim brotherhood' working out? A lot of unity there? One would think that if the Indian muslims believed in such a brotherhood they wouldn't want to live in a secular country. This 'defence' of the brotherhood is only one sided, its from your side.
Yeah those generals did say that but then again they aren't generals in the 21st century. One needs to see the difference between today's world and the ancient world.
What you essentially reinforced is that religion is a cult. It is more concerned with the well being of its own rather than truly being compassionate towards all humans. It is no wonder that most of the world's problems have to do with religion.
Anyways, this might be offtopic so will end here.
We do not end on your terms...

Well it won't work out with attitudes such as yours and apathy and carelessness. But there are signs of Muslim unity and brotherhood though not at the government level but at the street level the Muslims are aware of brotherhood it is at a weak state at this time in history due to multiple reasons...
"One would think that if the Indian muslims believed in such a brotherhood they wouldn't want to live in a secular country."
This is an immature and illogical point, because your whole point is based on the assumption that because they are living there they support the national ideology of the state which apparently is 'secularism' thus their support for it. When it reality, where else are they going to go? Many may not have money to move somewhere else, many may find it a great financial hassle to move, and due to the political situation may not be able to move to other places...
Besides it is their homeland and they have been living their for generations when it was an Islamic Mughal empire and now even when it's a "secular" Indian state...So your point is false and foolish.
"Yeah those generals did say that but then again they aren't generals in the 21st century. One needs to see the difference between today's world and the ancient world."
Your grasp of the historical time line is seriously and badly warped...Ancient world? Well more accurately would be medieval times and after...Also they do not have to be Generals in the 21st century because they have encountered many similar problems the Muslims face today, the fundamentals of what they did and believe are relevant today...
And in fact much of what we face today see, hear, live, and experience much of it is a continuation of that (Medieval-post) history...

"more concerned with the well being of its own rather than truly being compassionate towards all humans."
Oh really, and this is why most of the Secular countries today have the most blood on their hands, most wars, most horrific crimes, most crime, most stealing, most immorality. Their reasons and motives are always material and superficial and the heads of these nations always seek self rewards and benefits...
What you say about religion, now specifically Islam I would say is a compassionate religion and a tolerant religion. But Islam will not idly stand by as man usurps power from God for man's own self-lordship and corrupt pursuits and endeavors on Earth.
"It is no wonder that most of the world's problems have to do with religion."-SecularHumanist
This is blatantly misguided and a foolish assertion commonly popular amongst the light of thee...Most of the World's problem in fact are caused by the Secular World elite who have the financial, military, political, social, and other means to create and implement global problems.
In fact, conflict begins when man deviates from the truth which is in the depths of his own nature but under the influence of his desires he follows his own deviated and false opinion and immoral ways instead of following Allah.
When conflict between man and his own true nature begins, this conflict spreads to nations, ethnic groups, races, and cultures. And instead of God's Earthly resources being used for the benefit of mankind it is used for it's destruction.
