Nobody is saying, spread hate against every Muslim that exists in India..In this very country, we have had exemplary amazing people like Shri APJ Kalam Azad, and it has been one of my life's greatest joys to get to listen to him in my college. Then there is a fine example of Padmashri KK Mohammed! Listen to that man, listen to what he talks! He accepts that Islam has a dogmatic approach. Then there is Tarek Fatah, who is actively asking young Muslims to stand up against Islamic radicals. Some of my professors have been Muslims..and they all were truly "liberal" in the truest sense of the word. and taught us to always be curious and question if we see any wrongdoing.
The problem begins, when one even fails to acknowledge that yes there is a need for change..nobody would have said a word..if all would live and let live..I have never seen anyone imposing or forcefully converting anyone to practice Hinduism/ Jainism/ Buddhism/ Sikhism? All the Hindutva movement is trying to do is protect the interests of Hindus and protect the Hindus. I dont think people understand that. This is a religion of anekant vaad..we all practice what we like from it..there is no hard and fast rule..There are some who follow Vishnu, some who follow Shiva, I follow Mahavir's path, some who follow the Vedas..we have plethora of choices within this religion itself..we are not labelling anyone as Kafirs for not practicing Hinduism..we are not bombing cities. But people have a problem, if we even raise an issue if someone is attacking us/ converting other people by indoctrinating nonsense and dangerous idealogies?
Forget Muslims, the biggest problem is the pseudo liberal Hindus who are the worst of the lot. Its cool to hate on the religion, without having read a single word of any text or understanding the basic concepts of it.
