Before anyone is from any community Mr. Karelia they are human. The
same blood in their veins flows in yours and mine. Why would they be
different. If you can dispel this thought from your mind and heart
that they are a "community" the world will suddenly be a whole lot
brighter.

Ravi talks of a classless, egalitarian world, it's his dream but
unfortunately
not a reality. While old castes and classes are petering out, new are being
developed. World was never class free, never will be.

3. Even if Karelia dispels the belief from his heart that muslims are a
community, the situation in the world will not change. The Mecca will
not
cease to be venerated by about 36% world population; the world islamic
organizations will not cease to exist; the Saudi Arabian brand of Wahabi
Islam will not stop its efforts to get entrenched in every Muslim; the
international chain of Al Qaida will not get nullified; Pakistan will not
stop in its attempts to be the spokesman of the muslims in the world; the
global cartoon incidents or their likes will not become a thing of the
past;
the shia-sunni divide will not end.

Ravi just talks awkward, he may not be meaning it seriously. If by chance
he is doing sincere talk, then we have to salute this unturbaned Sardarji
for
analysing Jains as violent a lot as Muslims. Perhaps living in a worthless
country Qatar, he has learned brains from Arabs! Afterall some Sard
jokes do portray them intelligent, sometimes, if not always
