  1. Hello! I just wanted to give some feedback to the Sikh community, This comming from a white Christian (I only mention this so you know the demographic and see not all people from a certain group are the same) I hope the following will be acceptable coming from me, Just some feelings and thoughts that I wanted to get across. Too often people only speak to say bad things. Firstly I'd like to say that from personal experience I've always found Sikhs to be kind, honest ,helpful ,polite and accepting and I was raised by my parents ( both Christian) with a similar sterotype passed down to me. But from my personal experience it's no sterotype , Sikhs are always there for those in need always leading by example showing people how to be good even if they are not of the same religion, race or sex. One of my best friends at school was a Sihk we were always there for each other, usually he was there trying to save me from being beaten up by bully's (i used to get bullyed for no reason ) and I would help him with homework or anything I could really. The only time(s) he ever had a problem with people being abbusive to him were outside of school, By uneducated idiots that thought he was muslim, back then though you could say he's not muslim he's sikh and that would be the end of it. These days however people just think anyone that isn't white is muslim, this is disturbing but more so is the otherside where by muslims are expressing hatred for not just sikhs or christians but everyone. In 2008 my friend was stabbed by a muslim (with the hope of killing him) for being Sikh quoting with police presence that being muslim gave him the right to kill a Sikh on sight. Luckily he survived . This was and still is deeply upsetting to me as he is no longer the same, I've tryed all i can to help so he continues his Nitnem etc But as fas as i know he has stopped praying. I really don't understand, being sikh is not a bad thing, Infact i think if there were more proper sikhs the world would be a better place. what i want to know is why do muslims hate sikhs and everyone thats not a muslim so much? It's like their way or death?? It seems a big challage faced by the sikh community is people mistaking sikhs for muslims if this didn't happen it would make life alot easyer As a side note, i don't feel it appropriate for someone like me to convert to sikh, i feel i would be an insult to your religion it's hard to find the words but I feel unworthy. All i can do is be the best person i can be and live by both principals of the sikh and christian religions, be good to fellow man, make peace and love the world and whats inside of it. I may be doomed at the end of my life but atleast I'm doomed knowing i did what i could to be a good caring person. I am sorry if this has angered or offended anyone here, it was not my intention. Thank you
