Firstly Shiv I never said that we were the MOST racist, I just said that we are racist. and I'll go on to say that we are definately not the LEAST racist. Yes alot of progress has been made in Nepal interms of Jat..Thar etc...but there are some people who will drop money from thier balcony for the sweeping lady becuase they don't want to touch her. king of cambridge...u don't think burning a mosque was an act of intolerance? I never said we enslaved the Muslims but you don;t need to go that far to be considered intolerant in my mind. They marched down there screaming "Musalte ko dari tan, dari tan" at the time it sounded funny but still struck me as incredibly intolerant. I'm pretty sure those young men who went down there were not having a philosophical dilema with Islam when they went down there, they went thier becuase in thier mind all Muslims are the same...evil and hence share responsibility for the deaths of those 12 hard working Nepali ppl. that is bieng very close minded, bigoted, and intolerant. Religious or racial regardless it is still intolerance. If they were having a true dilema with Islam as u claim why aren't they down thier now debating the merits of thier religion with the ppl who go to the mosque? Great were a country of 31 different languages and we'ved lived together so long together.....and were so tolerant that even after hundreds of yrs of living together we still consider ourselves different types of ppl and some consider themselves to be more rightteous than others because of whom they were born to...just think about that man.....I can't even tell who is exactly what by looking at them yet we discriminate on that basis after "coexisting" for so many yrs
