it appears more like a case of Rohit abstaining today. :)

If he had taken his regular dose, he would have been more
tolerant.

It seems, Sean, that you are not very conversant with
aftereffects of alcohol. :)

There are specific communities made out of those who had
converted from hinduism to islam. I understand that Bohra
community is one of those. Muslims never adapted them as one
of their own.

Similarly, Mujahid community in Pakistan constitues of those
who migrated from india to pakistan, but pakistani muslims
did not adapt them as one of their own, and made a separate
community of them, and this is the community which
contributes to most dead bodies wheever any riot breaks. and
these are not converts, these are fulfledged genuine muslims
for generations and centuries.

> So much for Hinduim.

so much for the islaam.

The above two incidences show that it is only a tactical
victory for muslims to get hindus converted to islaam.
Muslims have no intentions to ensure wellbeing of such
converts, and will never consider them "as muslim as"
ORIGINAL genuine muslims.

In any cas, muslims among themselves are having higher and
lower social classes and castes. The convertes are placed at
a lower rung than the lowest in the community.

In any case, conversion is a crisis of faith. One who could
not get solcae in one god will not be able to find solace in
another god., after all, all gods are men's creation.

Would like members to correct me, if anything in the above
is wrong.
