Australia is a secular nation, with no official state religion, where people are free to practice any religion of their choosing, or none at all, providing that adherence to their faith doesn't impinge on the freedoms of others.

Mr. Paul,
I feel Australia belongs to people lke you. Let some Australians not lower the status of Australia by their perverted attitudes and opinions. A country becomes great not by its religious or linguistic identity but by the kind of people it has! Basking under the canopy of religion, language etc is a dangerous trend inimical to mankind.

I don't really prescribe to 'gang' mentality, no matter what sides or the issue in question is.

Like a 'global' gang of foreign countries has a right to tell another individual country what they should and shouldn't do for example:
- I don't prescribe to this kind of thinking.

If we in the West ARE BETTER, then we should lead by example, not impose our will and our beliefs about right and wrong on others.

A big part of the problem of the world these days (in my opinion) is countries leaders being in bed with and caring more about the thoughts and feelings of all the countries leaders as well as their 'image' as seen by foreigners, than they do about the making decisions that are in the best interests of their own citizens first.

The whole thing is so polarised that leaders are literally scared of the reception they will get from foreigners, and scared of being criticised and/or kicked out of their little club of global mates that no-one will even stick their neck out to do whats in the best interests of citizens.
- Because they are derided by all the other muppet leaders the moment they do, and there's ample examples that this is how it works.

Leaders don't get in positions of power by sticking the neck out for their people. They got their by being good little muppets and maintaining the status qao or existing heirachy, in this kind of environment this makes them too weak to ever put their necks out, and better for them to go along with what others want and not make waves.

So for me, the domestic policies of Indians are for the Indians themselves to decide.
Unless the issue in question directly affects me or my country, (in which I'm then obligated to take a position) then me just having an opinion, more or less equates to me sticking my nose into other peoples businesses, where it doesn't belong.

Indian people would be right to tell me to mind my own business.

"Indian people would be right to tell me to mind my own business".

I always give my opinion as a human being and not as an Indian. Let us all evolve. That is what is expected of the progress of civilisation. I am really surprised to see people like you in this era.

Indian people would be right to tell me to mind my own business.
Armchair Critic,
The Fijians would be the best people to ask about such issues !

Stalker killed girl by setting her on fire after she rejected him, Indian police say
http://edition.cnn.com/2022/08/30/asia/india-woman-burned-intl-hnk/index.html

If this is what a Muslim in India will do for being rejected, then what would a whole town full of Muslims do to do girls who don't wear Hijab as expected?

There's a good reason why people should mind their own businesses.
How many Muslim girls in India do you want gang-raped or set on fire, or killed over some backwards idea of honour by other Muslims , because we encouraged them to stop wearing Hijab in the name of human rights?

What if I told you I DEMAND INDIA stop buying cheap discounted oil from Russia?

Would Indians not tell me I have no business telling them what they should and should not do when it comes to matters of their own energy security?

Would they not tell me that Indians will do what is in the best interests on Indians?

Why don't you go back to India and start running around the Muslim communities with a loudspeaker telling them to stop wearing hijab?
Why? You'd probably end up like the girl burned to death, and so what you expect us to do it for you?
You have the gaul to say I'm wrong for not dictating what Indians should do in India, when you won't do exactly the same thing yourself in your own country.

We in Australia are not a Hindu or Muslim country.
It's not for me to say how Indians should run their country.
