On the surface in theory, Sikhism does seem to be quite egalitarian. But, like all religions, in practice it's likely very hierarchical and not inclusive, quite irrational and non-scientific, and absolutist (authoritarian). Also, I don't like the ceremonial dagger, the arrogance, aggressiveness and "warrior" mentality.

    I've always believed religion and democracy are incompatible. So did Henry VIII in the 16th Century. That's why he separated Church from state. That is still a no brainer for people who prioritize democracy, which many of the young don't.
  I believe that's still a no brainer. Now, if we love democracy, we need to separate corporation and state. As a corporate lawyer, Singh is problematic.

  I hope to see some social democratic economic equality values from Singh, but I believe he's merely a poster boy for multiculturalism.
