India is a
country that is supposed to be secular. In reality, we are just trying to be
tolerant and not secular. Thanks to the Professor who taught me that Secularism
means “forming and running a government without the influence of religion” that
I now completely understand that we are the least secular set of people ever.
Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam became the president of India only
because the then BJP central government wanted to prove that it was not against
any religion, especially Islam, even though they have their fair stake in the
Babur masjid attack.
Anything and everything that is simple, is
being blown out of proportion if the religion element gets added to it. The one
reason that has led me to write this is the recent development on Kamal Hassan's
film “Viswaroopam”. The film features a villain who is a Muslim and hence the
movie is facing a number of cases under the plea "Anti-muslim". In fact, the movie “Thuppakki” also faced
a similar situation. There is one thing that we all must agree to and that is, in reality, the
major terrorist groups are all based on one religion called ISLAM and most of
them originate from the middle-east or the north-westernmost part of Asia where
all the Islamic Republics are crowded together. It was Jinnah and a few other
stupid people who wanted the country split into three pieces based only on
religion and not to mention the stupid Theory of “New relationship after
Divorce”. We are still paying alimony in many ways.
The movies are
not portraying Muslims to be bad. If there is a situation that demands
narrating a conflict or a crisis between two nations, one being majorly Hindu
and the other purely being Islam, one should go with the story and be happy
that the villain is from the other nation and not our own. It is all about
nationality damn it! and nothing else. It is Gandhi’s, Jinnah’s and Nehru’s fault if all
Pakistanis are Muslims. It is Pakistan’s fault if it produced militants and
terrorists out of its womb. Being an Indian Muslim, depicting a Muslim terrorist should not be bitter at all, as it is a war that is being fought for the country and not for the
religion. If being in India and watching films that depict those criminals is
bitter, then that person must choose to go and live in a place like Pakistan.
Hindu is the way we native Indians live and we are tolerant to let the other invaders and converted people live the way they like. Islam is not the religion of this nation. Hinduism is! There is no religion that is lesser than the other, unless it provokes unwanted terrorism. The incident where our very own Hindu Home Minister alleged the BJP for unleashing the HINDU TERROR is very depressingly contrasting to what the other people are up to. He is only doing that to prove that he is a so called secularist and that the BJP, his opponents have to be put down and it has got nothing to do with the non-existent love for the nation. He even goes an extra mile to add respect to terrorists and call them with "ji" as suffix! Asshole! People, please get real. We are all teamed up as nations to fight and there is no other system of classification that is healthy or important in the present situation. Why can’t we think about India as a single nation and as nothing else? When are we going to get real, face the real issues with a broad mind and stop halting the judicial and legal systems in the nation by dropping in heavy baggage of unwanted shit??? Can someone file a case against Google for showing images of only Muslims when searched with the keyword "Terrorist"?

Talking about
the religions, one should read the history to find that India was a country
that never indulged in any conquests. It was so only because of the religion
that was quite straight forward and held people stronger and focused towards
greatness and not about killing someone who does not follow what the religion says. It has always been about live and let live. It is really good to be obsessed with god and Hinduism did that
to the people really well. If there is something that is going wrong, it is nice to go and
talk to THE GOD like a friend and that would help ease up the pain. If there is
happiness, again it is time to give credits to THE GOD and not let it go to the
head too much and ruin oneself and their relationships, for people generally do not
like one who is filled too much with the self. But still, everything has a
limit. The main point that I am trying to make here is that we have to fight as
a nation and be united albeit so many differences and give sense to the proud slogan we attach to our nation - "Unity in Diversity!". If not, we have to prepare ourselves to be put down by
domination, possibly by the USA or by China, if China becomes more powerful than any
other nation in the world by several folds. (Which is what the Chinese want right now and they are working together for the same!)
If all the
Muslims in India take their Muslim role model to be Dr. A. P. J who fought the Pakistani
nuclear threat with his "Indian" inside of him and not as a person who practices
ISLAM, then there would be no reason to make a great deal about silly things
like these.
JAI HIND!
