Why not? Islam was introduced to what is now Pakistan 1300 years ago, and the majority of the population have been Muslims for hundreds of years. If the caste system has been perpetuated for hundreds of years by Muslims, what has that got to do with the Hindu religion? How many centuries do you have to practice something before you are responsible for practicing it?The problem is due to caste legacy of the Hindu religion,which has not disappeared after Pakistan choose Islam.
I just wanted to say that ,Islam alone is not guilty of propagating sectarian division.Why not?

Caste system is not sanctioned by Hinduism nor it has anything to with its philosophy....It is denigration of hindu religion.If the caste system has been perpetuated for hundreds of years by Muslims, what has that got to do with the Hindu religion?
Of course it's not. Humans love to divide up into "us" and "them." But if religion is powerless to teach people to behave better than that, what good is it? And if the adherents of a particular religion embrace that kind of behavior more often, and with more violence and fervor, than the adherents of other religions, what does that tell you about that religion?I just wanted to say that ,Islam alone is not guilty of propagating sectarian division.
And why, any time we try to ask these questions, do we have to wade through pages of defensiveness and obvious statements like, "It's not Islam alone." Duh. Now can we try to make some effort to figure out what's going on here?
And if the adherents of a particular religion embrace that kind of behavior more often, and with more violence and fervor, than the adherents of other religions, what does that tell you about that religion?Anytime people teach that theirs is the only true religion and everybody ought to belong to it, they're setting the stage for the dehumanization and oppression of others. The bloody histories of Islam, Christianity and Communism are not coincidental.
Some factors tend to contribute to it or aggravate it.
IMHO,their community does not allow them to question/criticize their religion.This is a part of problem.That's what I'm trying to get at: what is it about Islam that tends to cause Muslims to engage in this sort of behavior?
Many of wealthy christian societies have reformed ,I don't see that happening with Islam,esp..when there are wars against some of the Islamic countries.Why did Christians used to do this a lot a few centuries ago, but less so now? What's going on here?
Well, what religion were the attackers?
Pakistan is an Islamic country, and the attackers were Muslim.
....What's going on here?
i wasn't there.
can you name one more islamic country for me please?
So if you weren't there you don't believe the news reports? Isn't that a bit limiting? Who won the gold medal in olympic ice hockey?i wasn't there.?
Algeria, Afghanistan, Morocco, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Tunisa, Somalia...
Why?
So, in other words, Islam, as a national identity, is a figment of the imagination.exactly, islam is one nation (one country) none of those countries represents islam, they have man made laws into their justice system.

Yes, .lava, I know this tap dance well enough. I would however love to see you write up point #4, in the ISLAM Dir, in a point by point form. That would be very interesting reading. If you have the inclination, that is.no, it means;
1-if one wants to learn Sharia, he needs not to know what's happening in Muslim nations but he needs to read Qur'an
2-People have left Qur'an
3-One does not need Sharia to be applied to society correctly to be a better man. he can always learn and follow rules as an individual. everyone is responsible of his own actions even though we live in societies together
4- We are in end times and every single thing Mohammad SAW has said about end times is actually happening 1 by 1, no Muslim would be surprised
.
Pakistan has serious problems:
Pakistan: Report on violence against Christians released
Report prepared by the Christian Study Center lists incidents of violence perpetrated against Christians. Among them were nine women and children burnt alive in their homes.
