TheIranians are now going back to their Pre-IslamicRoots. I haveRead about that in manyNewsPapers.
Ironically it was the so-called IslamicRevolution spearheaded by the late A.Khomeni that was responsible for the renewed IslamicFundamentalism. Now they have realized their mistake. Hope others will also follow suit.

They celeberated the festival of fire(a parsi practice) after showing their middle finger to their ayotallahs. And the underground nightclubs are booming in teheran.

Dr.AliSina, TawfikHamid, etc are trying that. They will change surely but slowly. Have some patience.
See the freedom of expression, you are enjoying here. Comparing to paksitan. You are always comparing India with paksitan. See the greatness of ourreligion to have a debate on hinduism. Can it happen in pakistan? No, we would have been found and puttodeath by this time. So do islaaaam allows freedom of expression? Can a christianoranhindu, come and tell against islamreligion in an islamiccountry? where as youare having here that freedom. Thats the difference between the tolerance and the intolerance
AnyReligion that refuse to reform is bound to perish. Europe progressed only after the separation of State from the Churches. So long as the Churches were in control of the affairs of theState, they had committed all sorts of atrocities and their victims wereChristians. There is no separation of StateFromTheChurches inIslam. That is the main problem. IslamIs more of a PoliticalIdeology than aReligion. IslamIs ArabImperialism. They are making MuslimsFrom other parts of theWorld pawns in their power game.

Even the Buddhist M0nks break into ShaolinKungFu when they reach the threshold limit of tolerance. Have you not seen that in Myanmar just a few months back??

True. We realized one thing. Our Leaders will not save us or allow us to defend also. Only hope is from Israel or Americans.
