It seems that Sikh men in England are disrupting interfaith weddings because it is sinful to marry into a different set of ignorant superstitions.
It’s a beautiful, bright day at the town’s Gurdwara Sahib temple, but there is an anxiety in the air that is more than typical pre-wedding jitters: the young couple have been forced to marry under “oppressive circumstances” after previous weddings were disrupted by protesting religious men who do not want Sikhs to marry out of the faith.
The protesters dress in hoods, cover their faces and intimidate guests at the temple. Yet they are Sikhs – a religion readily associated with peace and inclusivity.
You want peace on earth? Put the ignorant, busybody, Holy Men out of your life. Set aside the lie that they have special cosmic knowledge inaccessible to the rest of us and treat it with the contempt it deserves.
