What about sikhism and alcohol? Is this a problem the sikh faith is having issues dealing with? Here is an example ... Sonu Luthera - New Zealand | Facebook
Why is it that the focus is always on past atrocities or on negatives. Why not positives? I read these discussions and inevitibly these discussions go back to who did what. Ok ... so the muslims committed atrocities against sikhs ... what now? Move past it ... Those people who did this are long...
yes i do ... is not also written that a sikh must not drink alcohol? From what i have seen ... a majority of sikhs do ...
The point i am making is that people pick and choose the bits they like and dont like from a faith ..
The basic problem with your statement ... "a sikh must marry a sikh"...
so .. i guess then Sikhishm, along with islam, christianity and judaism is not that much different .. poisoned by the people who practise it.

The overriding beliefs instilled in me say that all faiths and...
what i was raised to believe in my muslim family .. is that everyone is equal, men, women from all faiths and that we will be judged according to our beliefs and our actions. Noone ever told me that Islam is superior to other faiths. Simply that it suggests a way to live your life. Talking about...

what was the final outcome of this?

Hello kds1980,
I am ok. Thank you for asking. I cannot disagree with you at all. I am disgusted by the muslim society and how a majority of them have gone so far away from what logic would suggest is right or wrong. Just blind to what they are doing to others and to each other as well.
It is...
Is religion a shroud for people to commit evil or immoral acts but then use their faith (and the fact that they actively exercise their faith) to comfort themselves in believing it is ok?
I would like to ask this question. This applies to all religions. Here are some examples:
