From: SHRIKANT BARVE <shri8...@yahoo.com> Subject: [Goanet] Are Muslims In India Appeased?
Muslims are still in the clutches of their religious gurus. These religious gurus oppose setting up of School near madarass. These religious gurus keep Muslims away from main stream education. Politicians keep this religious gurus happy for their gain.. This is basic appeasement. Mario responds: This may be a problem in part of the Muslim community. However, ordinary Muslims are better off and more progressive in India than in any Muslim majority country, except Turkey.

Muslims who want Sharia law should move to Swat or Waziristan:-)) Shrikant wrote: Which Muslim reformist has won election in Muslim dominated locality? Mario responds: I have no idea. Perhaps progressive Muslims should move to localities where Muslims do not dominate. Besides, how many such localities exist in India? Couldn't be too many as a percentage of India's population.
