I refer to the statement by faith groups in Birmingham on page 5, whereby they mention that the members of Moseley Interfaith Forum - made up of Muslims, Jews, Christians, Sikhs and Hindus - met up in Victoria Square.
I feel very strongly about the statement which is deliberately not only used time and time again by all UK governments past and present and the crony press and media which purposefully or intentionally separates all Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs which are all branches of the great ancient inclusive Hindu religion.
May I ask why is it that all branches of Christian faiths and Islamic faiths are not mentioned as separate faiths. Please for heavens sake stop this nonsense for good, as it will help no one.
My second point is that the following song which in my opinion is wrong: "Hindu Muslim Sikh Isai hum sab hai bhai bhai" instead it should be sung like this: Hindu Budh Jain Sikh hum hai Hindu bhai bhai and Hindu Zoroastrian Muslim Jews Isai hum sab hai bhai bhai!
