I totally agree that awareness about Abrahamic doctrines warts and all needs to be built up. however the awareness builder must understand the audience while doing so and must keep his objectivity at all times. Also it is a question of creating bridges and not gaps.
We have looked inward for a long time , it is time we looked outward and reached out to others who are languishing in ghettos under the vice like grip of maulvis/evangelicals etc.
Secularists have followed a two part strategy thus far - fear mongering with intermittent appeasement. It is therefore necessary that nationalist forces understand the age old game and shake it down with a novel strategy.
