There are a lot of Indians in Bahrain, and I really hate how they get treated even though I'm Arab-American. I hope that rich arabs in the Gulf understand what humanity is about, someday.
India is a huge country full of smart pupils and scientists, and is one of the only countries that has landed on the Moon. That's what I believe.
Nid, beliefs will never become a draw back nor is bathing with cow urine.
Wearing the niqab or hijab is not a draw back either, it's apart of Islam. And the niqab isn't forced to be worn :S. Goats aren't slaughtered during Eid, they don't stab it to kill it nor smack it either, they cut it from the head right away so it doesn't feel the pain. Animal slaughtering is mostly done in Korea.
For those who make fun of Hinduism, if your Muslim then you should recall this from the Quran:
"For you is your, religion, and for me is my religion." Stop discriminating others' beliefs, seriously.
I have a lot of friends from different religions.. I know Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims and Atheists and I treat them all equally and they do too.
India is getting up there....
