I think fighting for the nation of states system is against the whole idea of being atheist. Why would such a person be willing to die for a country like Pakistan.
Me is one example. I think this is rather about a common perception that anything that revolts a state involves anti-religious or atheistic beliefs. It's quite different. Be it a hardcore religious soldier or an atheist one, they all have different motives to join the service ranging from financial reasons to pure nationalism. But the thing is they are all under one umbrella which is to pledge loyalty to the oath they took to serve their country. It would only be disrespectful to divide or categorize men and women serving their country by ethnicity, religion or other irrelevant things which is something the Pakistani military is pretty much able to succeed at.
So I give my utmost gratitude and respect to PA in this regard from an outsider friend.
