Observer on forced marriage in UK

I thought some of you might be interested in this. Isn't Sikhism a form or offshoot of Hinduism. Maybe MSK can enlighten us.

I think it's the families who've spurned them that are the losers. Such plucky and resourceful women would be an asset to any family.

Religion is ignorance giftwrapped in lyricism.

I think it is more of an offshoot of Islam - well at least it combines bits of islam with bits of Hinduism.

I was always told that Sikhs wont cut their hair until all Muslims are killed - I have no idea if that is bollocks or not.

I was told that one too, odd that I haven't even looked it up to see if it was a muslim urban myth.

Regarding the OP, I found her inspirational, so articulate and strong. Damn right it was their loss.

Inhale the good shit, exhale the bullshit.

I read that once on ummah, it is absolutely bollocks.

I was not blessed with the ability to have blind faith. I cant beleive something just because someone says its true.
