Lefties won't believe this story Matt.... it's from the Daily Mail. Strange though that they believed the story about Cameron and the pig.... which was also a Daily Mail story? Double standards nick?
It's a shame. Goes to show how f***ed up religion can be.
When we ran India, the Muslim servants were the most troublesome.... the Hindus and Sikhs were pussy cats in comparison. What other religion has a holy book encouraging it's followers to kill "non believers" ?
I was discussing the matter with Pefwin - so butt out. I'm not interested in your views.

I think invading their country and killing their people counts as extremism and they would certainly have regarded themselves as Christians. India IS much better off without British occupation self evidently. Financially they are clearly much better off but there is a very basic first principle. All countries are better off running themselves. Do you think Poland is better off run by the Poles rather than the Soviets? Strange question You are shifting, You said "extremists" I invite you to show me extremists in Victorian Britain. Your assertion about India being better off today without Britain clearly overlooks the fact that India would not be as it is today without British rule. Principle is too rigid. You say any country is better off ruling itself. Is Britain better for Roman and Norman rule ? There is a very strong case.
The idea that India is worse off now Britain has gone is demonstrable nonsense and I presume simply the product of your love of empire. The world's largest democracy was certainly shaped by British occupation. Ukraine was shaped by the Soviet Union. ALL countries are better off ruling themselves even (especially) when they make mistakes. Who are you to decide say America would be better off run by Australia, Ireland by Britain or Britain better of being run by Mexico. Whatever made you think you are the member of some master race that thinks it can run countries better than the people who live there. Yes I would love to live there. Though there are several others that would make the list starting with Iceland No I didn't. You are back tracking. As for India being demonstrably better off. Demonstrate it. Most of India's infrastructure is a result of British rule.

Still waiting. You have got nothing to back up your statements. Rhetoric don't cut it.

Re:Victorian times and Christian extremism. It did happen. I remember an episode of 'Little House on the Prairie' when most of the locals rejected a family for not being godly even though they were perfectly nice and were continually ostracised until Charles and his halo stepped in to show the townspeople the error of their intolerant ways.

Secondly, there is much hand wringing on these boards by the right on know it all's about Trident. Yet India has developed nuclear bombs and a space programme to boot but cannot manage to develop working sewers, a power system that doesn't conk out every 15 minutes and roads that are not blocked to buggery. Therefore, intead of blaming British rule which ended over half a century ago, why don't you question the priorities of the Indian government? Unless of course, you are one of those Student leftie types that blames all the World's woes on Britiain and the U.S.

I think Sedlescome is confusing reality with an episode of It ain't Half Hot Mum where a brutal gang of Christian extremists with crucifixes bolted to their foreheads march into Calcutta and demand the locals love Jesus or be cast into a pit of rabid bulldogs. An easy mistake to make.

.....Annnyyway. Can we leave 18th century indian part of the British empire, and instead have a look back at a Bunch of Muslim arseholes threatening a family to the point that they feel the need to move (for not being Muslim). Now change the colour and back ground of the bullying family to white working class, and I garuntee the Police would arrest and detain the trouble making racists. why has this not happened now ? And people wonder why knuckle dragging racists like Britain first are growing more popular everyday

Sounds like an NRA type argument. Imagine no religion, I wonder if you can......
In turn, please name one socialist paradise where all violence has been eradicated. I imagine you cannot name one... Where as capitalism has done a fantastic job of eradicating violence....
