Meh, *maybe* India isn't the best example, but I still have to think it's not as bad as it sounds. Consider that it wasn't long ago that I read a news article that some rednecks gassed a nursery in a mosque while it was in session, and sickened a bunch of Islamic kids. All this happened in Ohio. Based on that news article should we now deduce that all of America is a terrorist state?

India is maaaaasive. Sure you'll find examples. But even if it's not an idyllic paradise (and rarely when you talk about religion do you find find a bonafide utopia), then I think the overall point is valid.

Why can't we all just get along?
