I would agree with Harry ji as I don't think you should worry about how someone else is practices his or her own religion. May the Hindu be the best Hindu and the Muslim be the best Muslim as long as they keep it to themselves. I had not really known much about the animal slaughter at Sri...

The issue is of mentality. As a researcher I along with other agencies such as the UNDP and UNICEF produced ample reports debunking ideas that somehow boys will lead to more prosperity. And moreover, the fact that infanticide takes place among Indian communities living in UK and elsewhere also...

Absolutely not, that is not what I am saying. While many leaders/soldiers may not have taken Bhang or anything else, But history is person's point of view and it is almost never objective. Was I there during the time of the wars- No! But being a Sikh also requires me to investigate information...

From historical records that I have come across noted that Deg/Bhang were useful during or before a battle. In a state of mild intoxication with higher than usual adrenaline in the body's pain receptors are affected. However, I have not been able to validate this claim with any scientific research.

Can someone provide the source where Bertrand Russell's quote is taken from. I have read it only on Sikh sites and as a philosophy student i am curious to know where this quote is taken from.

what a waist of time.

Re: is islam scientific??? no religion is scientific. One can argue that some ideas in religion can be explained through science but that does not mean its scientific. Religion does not follow the rigor if experimentation instead it relies on divine revelation that may or may not be true. Dont...

The Jedi were adapted from Samurai culture by George Lucas. So perhaps it would be interesting to make the comparisons with Samurais and Sikhs.

all religions can be argued to be false as they are all made up by man. There are spiritual and philosophical ideas attached with the mythologies in religion that cannot be explained to people without any background in such form of reasoning. The Bible and stories within it have deeper...

I am happy to see this post. It is very important to continue to remind people that the ego is cause of much misery. We tend to hold on to hold onto many things in order to give meaning to out lives. Let go of it all, stop holding on. One must realize that only by letting go of worldly...

good one
