Jesus Christ was circumcised, there’s no need to mock something just because Muslims do it…
 
The Jews did it first. Muslims imitated them. Islam is just a poor copy.
 
mgupta,
I would suggest you consider the issue of relativism. There are profound disagreements between Hindus and Catholics about God. We don’t like to talk about differences which in the end leads to worse misunderstandings.

We don’t get along with muslims because they have a penchant for persecuting Christians. They do not permit freedom of religion for Christians in their countries. If they would stop attacking and killing us we would get along better.
Hindus dont disagree with Christians about God. Christians disagree with Hindus about God

It is far better to be educated about other religions because in the end we realize that we are more in common than we are different. At least that has been my experience. We all worship the same God. Whether it is a Muslim, Christian, or Hindu praying, God is listening. Educating others about other religions does not create worse misunderstandings it only gets rid of ignorance.

Also, I think the attacking and killing goes both ways between Christians and Muslims as it always has historically. Many say there cannot be peace on earth until there is peace between all religions.
 
We didn’t try to invade Mecca. Islam came out fighting from day one. They didn’t treat Hindu’s very well in India.

Hindu’s do disagree with us about God. They don’t believe in the Holy Trinity for one thing. Pretending we all believe the same thing when we don’t is just fooling ourselves. We should be honest about our differences.
 
Religion aside, the parents are not in agreeance. the children will suffer.

My friend she is baptist married a catholic man in a Baptist church. Not only will his parents not recoginise the marriage they have disowned their son and have not spoken to him and not even known they have grandchildren. Its tough to live through, your joy is always drained. and like I said the children suffer.

This needs to be resolved to a point that harmony can be achieved, or a genuine tolerance, before marriage. Or dont marry.

Perhaps the mother is so mad because she didnt have the same decision her daughter is now having, she could be just plain old jelous and using religion to hide it.
