Comments by "" (@kallachi729) on "5 reasons for global crisis in political Islam: Shekhar Gupta in #NationalInterest" video.

SG in this video has simply put out the seemingly complex issue of Islam. Human rights, the driving force that accepts desperate refugees, while addressing individuals does not address culture. Invasion of culture by Islam is the major issue in European and Western democracies. It is becoming an issue in India too. This fissure is exploited by terrorist organizations in the name of pan Islam. Over centuries, since the advent of Arab traders on the West coast, Arab culture and later Islamic culture permeated into the Indian society. During my school days this was very evident in my state Kerala. It worked both ways. Then, a woman in a burqua was rare and if we saw one we were sure she has arrived from Saudi Arabia. I left Kerala after School. For some reason things there are different today. The problem is not religion affecting politics....the problem is religion affecting cultures. As I always say, in India if all religious leaders come on one platform and proclaim in unison that “ your GOD is as good as mine” and ingrain this idea into young minds, we would have come a long way in maintaining communal harmony and peace. Culture will automatically adjust.
