    The fact that people copmplain about such small lands being ocupied when you see all the occupation and expansion that has taken place because of religion makes these people seem kind of not knowing much.

    Yes, but it was not taken by force it belonged to us. After it non-Sikh were not presecuted but tolerated. Just as it should be! So there!

    This is is how tolerance should prevail

    Re: History of Religion (Visual Display)

    Its interesting but its not that accurate i think. There is still Islam where Christianity is and Christianity where Islam is etc. I think they're goin by dominance of each religion in a region.

    Re: History of Religion (Visual Display)

    It is a bit misleading and pro-religious. It doesn't show the thousands of cultures and religions that were destroyed by the current big players.

    It starts as showing no religion existing in many regions, when religions did exist in them.

    It also omits to mention several large religions that don't fit into the abrahamic mold. It mentions only Hinduism and Buddhism???? Where is Taoism? Jainism? Confucious? Shinto?
