You've obviously completely misunderstood my posts and are very emotional. You are reading alot into my posts that just isn't there. I read it again. And I haevnt misunderstood you. maybe you didnt express what was in your mind. I havent read anything in your post that wasnt there. God wouldn't want that. On earth its laws of land that count and not God. In most countries you cannot kill a person but in many muslim countries you can kill a person for many reasons. 1. if a girl walks around without a burkha 2. if a girl talks to a guy even if that guy is her first cousin and both are 10 years old or older (called KARO KARI) 3. If you say or even imply (rememerb Salman Rushdie?)anything against allah. 4. if you dont face mecca and pray 5 times a day at the allotted time. and many such other reasons. You probably hate me too since I didn't marry a Sikh I dont know you so I have to respect you...remember?<g> Forgiveness for sins committed against you is the first step to becoming whole again Then forgive Usama Mohamed Bin laden ! BTW heres a site where u may read about the Sikhs... dancris.com Such was the condition of Hindu India when Muslim invaders from the west began pouring in large numbers one after the other. For the Muslim invaders, from Mahmood of Gazni in the eleventh century to the Moghuls in the sixteenth century (at the time of Guru Nanak), the Punjab was always the gateway of India. All these Muslim invaders massacred men, women and children without mercy, plundered their homes, desecrated and demolished their temples and robbed the wealth of these temples. The Hindus were converted to Islam at the point of the sword. Nobles, scholars, sufies, poets and philosophers who also came along with these invaders, settled in the various parts of India, and they laid the foundation of Indo-Muslim culture in the country. Many Muslim historians have given account of the happenings of that time. A few examples of the treatment of Hindus by the Mohammadan conquerors of India, are given below: Shahab-ul-Din, King of Gazni (1170-1206), put Prithwi Raj, King of Ajmer and Delhi, to death in cold blood. He massacred thousands of the inhabitants of Ajmer who opposed him , reserving the remainder for slavery (The Kamiu-t Tawarikh by Asir). In the Taj-ul-Ma'asir by Hassn Nizam-i-Naishapuri, it is stated that when Qutb-ul-Din Aibak (1194-1210) conquered Meerat, he demolished all the Hindu temples of the city and erected mosques on their sites. In the city of Aligarh, he converted Hindu inhabitants to Islam by the sword and beheaded all those who adhered to their own religion. Abdulla Wassaf writes in his Tazjiyat-ul-Amsar wa Tajriyat ul Asar that when Ala-ul-Din Khilji (1295-1316) captured the city of Kambayat at the head of the gulf of Cambay, he killed the adult male Hindu inhabitants for the glory of Islam, set flowing rivers of blood, sent the women of the country with all their gold, silver, and jewels, to his own home, and made about twenty thousand maidens his private slaves.
