Fair play to these Muslims, though. They really do force through some pretty major stuff with nothing but sheer brutal will. There's a lesson to be learnt from them, I think, once the Godlessness of it all has been stripped away.

Money, status, and looks.
That's what most Punjabi's prioritise when it comes to finding a partner for their daughter. BTW, the money could originate from a non-professional, blue-collar line of work, but as long as the fruits are plentiful, they don't really care.

What are "Mars"? I tried looking it up but all I found was the planet a little further away from the sun from earth.
Some Scots have been known to deep-fry a Mars Bar.

Conspiracy theories aside, it's quite curious how government proposals to do with internet surveillance by the state pre-Paris attacks were roundly condemned by people and the media (as well as ideas being floated about attacking Syria), but post-Paris attacks the public were practically begging the authorities to rifle through their emails and nuke Syria if it meant they were spared from the barbarity of ISIS' bullets on the streets of the West.
I think seeing a conspiracy in everything is quite counter-productive, yet there has to be some kind of process that goes on whereby things are pushed through due to a demand from the public that would otherwise not be given the time of day in normal circumstances. Too much of a coincidence.

Our lot are incapable of subtly or sophistication. They usually go for one extreme or the other. Balance elude them.
It's as if the phrase "Case by case basis" doesn't exist for us, lol. It's all or nothing. Like you said, no balance or nuance. It's either "chak doh" or "mar gaye".

We're not far off. Sgpc spent near 2lakh and chartered a plane to import flowers for Guru Maharajs gurpurab...the same Guru who chose to spend his fathers money feeding the poor rather than on business.
We're really not far off :(
The mixed messages don't help. On one hand we've got the "extravagance and excess are antithetical to the teachings of our Gurus" but on the other hand there's "Nothing is too good or expensive for Guru Sahib. To NOT spend on such things is an insult." I wonder where the truth lies in these cases?

People gots to be smarts about these things. Problem with our traditional society and how it often keeps geezers and birds apart, is that people don't learn these important life lessons until it is too late. I think this issue was one of the reasons Guru ji produced Charitrio Pakyaan by the way.
My thoughts exactly.

The age issue is not something to worry about. The bigger problem is you say you've never interacted with a girl. Now, it depends on your definition of 'interacted', but you have spoken to girls in a purely platonic manner, I hope? Either way, it's like sending a lamb into the lion's den. So many instances where guys like you have been chewed up and spat out by even nothing-women who have no redeeming attributes, yet they still manage to pull one over on clueless guys. Get smart, bro, and do it fast. I doubt you'll get anyone else in your life telling you this.

As partial observer, it's a shame how the birth of Jesus - a notable religious figure who, it is safe to say without fishing out the crucifix and stroking it admiringly, did good whilst on this earth - is an excuse to drink, eat, and buy frivolous goods in an apparently excessive manner. Aside from the observant (who are a gradually decreasing minority), Christmas is so far from what it should be. God forbid Sikhi should ever begin to resemble anything similar when our faith has been in existence for 2000+ years.

Humans. So much arrogance. Me, me, me. "Why did God not ask ME?"

Please don't conflate Gursikhi with the Punjabi culture.
He has a point.
I don't know or know of anyone who has successfully extricated Gursikhi from Punjabism.

What trite. Sunny Hundal is once again massaging the superiority complex of the white man by fortifying his ignorant perceptions of South Asian men.
Our society is not patriarchal, it's clearly matriarchal. Everyone knows that the mother/ mother in-law runs the show in the average UK Punjabi household, whilst her henpecked husk of a husband sits quietly in the corner with his Famous Grouse.
Different story back in the Punjab of course.
Hundal's never been one to let the facts obstruct his take on the issues. The annoying thing is why a high-profile Sikh or Punjabi (not the religiously affiliated) hasn't put him straight with a quick tweet or two. If someone with a bit of celebrity (unfortunately, such things count for a lot these days) were to refute his nonsense, he'd think twice about writing such rubbish. He's probably delighted at the lack of criticism.

Not that I will pretend to understand this odd behaviour or what they are trying to achieve, but has anyone bothered to confront them?
They're very dangerous people. Plus, they are well-connected and have the backing of the wider community. You know how it is, anyone were to dare flag any such issues and the accuser would be accused of slander, ruining reputations, etc. Best to observe from afar and hope Waheguru does the needful when the time is appropriate.

Leaving marinated birds outside peoples' houses? Those are the most underwhelming sociopaths I've ever heard of.
Probably helping people out in time for Christmas; reduce cooking times and all that. They shouldn't do such seva in a gupt mannner.

Don't you ever sense that the people putting on the biggest shows of piety are usually ones who are covering up some seriously dark instincts/natures? I think often they have sociopathic tendencies.
I'll keep this brief. Sikhi camp regulars; tyar-bar-tyar, young-ish Gursikh and his missus, always front-and-centre in the community during Gurpurabs and other notable occasions, conduct a sideline of creeping around after dark placing raw chickens pricked with chillis and drenched in rum and god knows what else, and leaving them outside people's front doors or underneath cars. That's just for starters. Yet nobody else has a clue. This is the state of modern Gursikhi. Not a one-off or an abberation.
What is it about Gursikhi that attracts these individuals? Can someone answer me?

Within the time of Vaisakhi of 2016, (I've already decided; however, there aren't that many Amrit Sanchars where I'm from,) also the idea about believing in Amrit is from the Akal Takht Maryada. (I apologize if I spoke in ego.)
It's fine, I was busting your chops.

This is just a slight bit of foolishness from those people on both sides. First being that a Sikh must take Amrit or have the plans to take Amrit someday as written in the Akal Takht Maryada, and Second because most everyone who is following him doesn't know the real him or know anything about him, he's not a celebrity so he can make any lies. (But the biggest lie is saying that he's a former Sikh which is pure buffoonery as real Sikhs don't convert).
Meanwhile, in the real world, non-Gursikhs continue to identify themselves as Sikhs, whether you like it or not. What can you do to stop them?
"...plans to take Amrit..." Nice little disclaimer there to protect yourself from claims of hypocrisy. So, tell me, how long do you envisage this "planning" stage lasting for you? ;)

The answer to your question is yes; however, I dislike that he got money simply for being called a liar(or black), I bet if a Gurmukh sued the company for something important then the entire idea would get shutdown or they'd probably be making some Sardar jokes or "whatnot".
You're making a lot of assumptions and leaps in logic. A lot.

So much political correctness.
Don't be that guy; the brown person with a turban and beard moaning about political correctness. You do have a turban and beard?

A devil's advocate moment, but does anyone think religion could possibly be a hindrance when attempting to conquer and rule, as opposed to being an actual help? Or doesn't it matter? The Roman's didn't place their divinity front and centre when conquering yet still managed to do okay, whilst the Mughals (particularly latter emperors) appeared to conquer solely for the propagation of Islam. Either way, both empires eventually fell so I guess it's a moot point.

A professional dispute which led to compensation being awarded. How is it at all relevant to highlight the man's skin colour when even the Daily Mail didn't fixate on that aspect of the case?

such a horrible attitude
Some of you are incredibly gullible. A dose of healthy cynicism isn't anything to be sniffed at.
Go read his posts from day one (there aren't many) and then tell me something about him doesn't stink. Then you can continue with your hand wringing. Until then, you have NO idea what you're talking about.

So, on the subject of Sikh women, just wandering whether, while maintaining Sikhi, some Sikh women born in the west have lost that natural god given maternal instinct and put baby on its own at night ?
I can't generalise, but from what I see and hear, young, western Punjabi couples starting to have kids will do up a baby room as a matter of priority as soon as they discover the wife is carrying. They do it because white people do it, and it's a sign of being civilised apparently. That's the basic answer.
The assumption is that when husband and wife have had the kid and he or she's sleeping with mum, the baby will be an obstacle whenever the... ahem... mood strikes. They don't want the kid perving on the parents. Apparently, that causes mental issues for the kid later in life, especially if it's a male.
I'm not sure where I stand on the issue as I don't have children, but my heart says sticking a newborn in another room is rather cold. Don't seem right to me.

Vah, kya baat hai? From fighting with a classmate over crayons a few months back, to questioning the very fabric of our reality a la Jean Baudrillard. It's like the desi version of Flowers for Algernon.

But they ARE the deciding factors for these "Gurmukhs". Just because they say otherwise doesn't make it true. Our people are wonderfully adept at dressing something up and presenting it as something different; the religiously inclined are arguably more likely and more experienced in these matters, because the facade of religiosity is one they can't afford to let slip.
