RE: [mukto-mona] Will Pakistan Be Declared A Secular State



I do see hope for Pakistan moving towards secularism - - people are simply tired of oppression by a handful of Extremists whose unnatural power stemmed from years of corrupt money and Military/Mollatocracy.  Here's a piece of news that supports my hope . . .

<< RIYADH — Pakistani Ambassador Manzoor Ul Haq said that tolerance and the spirit of peaceful co-existence remained our hallmark for centuries and would return to our lands eventually. He was speaking as Chief Guest at a National Day celebration hosted by Pakistan Culture Group (aka: PCG) – a social & welfare organization in Riyadh. "Ours was a beautiful country with peace & tranquility everywhere. We were tolerant to each other's view points and people of all sects, political leanings and cast & creed lived peacefully. However, it is unfortunate to see intolerance creeping in our society during the recent past, "Haq remarked. He also added that this was a passing phase and our lands would see the return of the golden era of tolerance and peaceful co-existence all over again. >>

If a devout catholic country like France could be secular, so could be Pakistan. Mono/ditheism isn't far from secularism. Just put God and Devil in one coffin and bury it in the dust bin of history.

It is simply too late for Pakistan to be a secular state when the number of minorities have been dwindling dangerously since 1947. Only Shias and Ahmedias would be standing there in Pakistan to fight for their final existence. I am sorry to pour cold water into your innocent and naive wish. Pakistan has not figure out yet what it wants in the future.

No matter, there is or is not a popular demand for declaring Pakistan a secular state; the Supreme Court can help to the victims of the State Religion. The Honorable Supreme Court of Pakistan may SAY NO TO STATE RELIGION just by taking suo motu notice declaring in the light of eleven (11) word of Mr. M. A. Jinnah that religion has NOTHING to do with the business of the State; that the constitutionally recognized State Religion proves that religion has EVERYTHING to do with the business of the State; that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights hits this kind of constitutionally recognized religious privilege; that Pakistan is the signatory of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; and that the Constitution of Pakistan must guarantee equality, neutrality and peaceful co-existence between belief and disbelief. Let the print and electronic media of Pakistan request by writing editorials, articles, letters, etc., etc., to the Honorable Supreme Court of Pakistan to take suo motu action for SAYING NO TO STATE RELIGION. In the meanwhile, let the Constitution Makers move the bill in the Constituent Assembly and get rid of the State Religion. Let them SAY NO TO STATE RELIGION now. Dear Reader, if you agree, please spread this message requesting the Honorable Supreme Court of Pakistan TO SAY NO TO STATE RELIGION. -- Will Pakistan Be Declared A Secular State <http://www.christiansinpakistan.com/will-pakistan-be-declared-a-secular-state/>.
