Haq saab,

Religion is the opiate of the masses, that is Carl Marx. If pakistanis are taking narcotics, the reason is simple, the religion is not strong enough. The promise of heaven and 32 houris have to be driven deeper into the psyche of the pak youth, as an old commie, that is the prescription I can give you.
