You're a bigot, deal with it.
Yeah sure, & you're an ignoramus apologist, deal with that first.
You kept harping on architecture like the Taj Mahal, but frankly architecture at least equal & far surpassing those existed in India & Pakistan long before Islam invaded & almost cleansed North India of all its Hindu Buddhist architecture.
India, by virtue of having large, fertile lands, would always by capable of producing enough surplus to generate staggeringly wonderful architecture. Indians for millennia have been creative & capable enough to excel in science & architecture.
Such examples of brilliant Indian architecture fortunately still exist in South East Asia, like the Angkor Wat.
Had Muslims not come, stuff like the Taj Mahal would continue to be built & many of the structures which Muslims had razed down as idolatrous & polytheistic would continue to exist.
This is fact, highlighted to you by Pakman. Deal with this.
Churches like Hagia Sophia would still exist as Churches, & more churches would exist. Most of the lands Muslims managed to overrun had highly developed ancient sophisticated societies which were extremely brilliant in arts, architecture & politics.
You regularly go out of your way to paint Bangladeshis as hordes of demonic migrants stinkying up your wonderful clean India.
My India is anything but wonderful & clean, which I have admitted, but I think it must be having elements superior to your Bangladesh, or so many millions of Bangladeshi illegal immigrants wouldn't have found it a suitable place to immigrate to.
Also, whether India is "wonderful, clean," or not is irrelevant. Bangladesis have no legal & moral right to migrate, & I as an Indian have every right to object. We never colonized Bangladesh, nor are Bangladeshis in extreme desperate straights due to war or natural calamities.
I have as much right to protest about Bangladeshi illegal immigrants as I have about any unwelcome guest who decides to stay at my house after arriving without invitation. Its completely irrelevant if my house is wonderfully clean or not.
And on top of that you paint rosy pictures about every other religious group. Especially how wonderful and productive Zoroastrian Indians are. I have nothing against Parsis, we've had close family friends who are Parsi. But frankly, the minor achievments of an ethnic group that numbers less than a few hundred thousand and whose class status was propped up by their former British overlords is, at the end of the day, irrelevant. Comparing 1.2 billion people to 200,000 is pure comedy at best. And you know it.
I don't paint fallacious rosy pictures, if other religious group does better things, how can I help it? Am I required to lie for the sake of PCMC ism?
How can I claim that honor killings happen amongst ethnic European Dutch like they do amongst ethnic European Turks, when they don't?
Or claim that South Koreans stone like the Iranians do, when they don't?
Its not only about "achievements" and you know that, its about not discriminating against women, not bombings their adopted homelands etc.
Zoroastrians in Iran also display these positive attributes, as an Iranian poster Nima attested. As do the Iranian Bahais too, btw.
Did the evil Brits who propped up Zoroastrians force the Bangladeshis to throw acid on women's faces? Or force Bangladeshi women to have a shorter life expectancy than men(in most places women outlive men due to their natural better health) due to ill treatment they suffer on a daily basis?
The huge numbers of Muslims make their achievements, or lack of it, even worse, except their achievement of outproducing the competition, & immigrating legally & illegally wherever they choose,discriminating against non Muslims in Muslim lands while demanding special privileges in non Muslim lands- which are achievements they excel at.
Who tells Muslims to get their daughters married off at ridiculously young ages(generally but not always), as Indian ex Muslim Cliodna also asserted here? The nasty Brits?
Or make them wear full veils in public?
This is pure comedy!
The 1.2 billion people also includes erstwhie huge colonizer Turkey, whose citizens now choose to migrate to European lands which never colonized anyone-like Switzerland & Scandinavia.
It also includes nations like Iran, again a nation never colonized by the West, which has become a shithole due to Muslim extremism, while nations like Taiwan have risen to first world status in a remarkably short span of time.
Am I supposed to overlook these bitter truths, for satisfying fragile Muslim egos?
... is pure comedy at best. And you know it.
Well, I am willing to doff my hat to your superior comic skils, Iblis. The irony of your assertions was amply proven by Pakman when he pointed out how the Indian sub Continent like Persia & Byzantine were all extrememy developed pre Islam with sophisticated architecture, & Muslims if anything made the places more backward.
