[QUOTE="Akashdeep Singh, post: 47902, member: 3640"] Max, I like to read the logic that you provide. Specially liked the answers that you have posted to "10 Questions from Muslims to Sikhs" post. Your reasoning is straightword and logical and I agree to most of it on that post, though I felt at some places some replies could have included examples from Gurbani. Nevertheless, your hard work, reasoning and dedication is commendable. Pardon me, but this phrase is confusing for me. I have pondered over this question from some years now and I don't seem to agree that God has made us and left us as passive creatures having no say in the overall go of the World. If that be the case, then what would have been the meaning of the line "Aape Beejay Aape Khahe" (What you sow is what you reap)? I am kind of tilting towards the belief that may be we as humans may not have a great say in how the universe goes, but I think we do have some say in how and where the society goes. I think god has created us and has also created a free will (bound by some limits though). If there was no such system then what would be the need of people going and getting jobs and working hard to earn the bread, when it was already fixed by God that bread will be available. One would simply sit at ones home and say, "what is gods will, will happen eventually. I don't have to do anything. I can sit at home and if its Gods will I'll get food anyway".

Gods has no doubt created the system with some things which are beyond the control of human beings and they cannot change them, but there are somethings that God has left to the intelligence of the Human Beings. Therefore, I think that truth does not win on its own, it needs people to make it win. You may be right. But I am trying to find answers to the questions:-[LIST=1] [*]Who added [names of persons are known, but what is their background] those derogatory lines related to Guru Tegh Bahadur ji to the NCERT history books?
