Unfortunately, no one knows the ideology of Pakistan. Half the country thinks Pakistan was meant to be an Islamic state and the other half believe it was supposed to be a secular state for Muslims.
The notion that "all Muslims are one nation" failed when Bengalis separated themselves from us and when we refused to give nationality/rights to Afghan refugees.
The second part of the Two-Nation theory which states that "Muslims and non-Muslims cannot coexist" also falls flat on its face because the Pakistani immigrant population in Christian/atheist Europe and North America is among the highest in the world. If Muslims and non-Muslims cannot coexist, why are Pakistanis queuing up to live with disbelievers?

How name of Pakistan coined?
In 1933 a group of Cambridge students led by Choudhary Rahmat Ali (1897–1951) had coined the term Pakistan (land of the pure), taking letters from Muslim majority areas: Punjab P, Afghania (North-West Frontier Province) A, Kashmir K, Indus-Sind IS, and Baluchistan TAN

If "A" is for Afghania and "TAN" for Balochistan then why do the Baloch want an independent state? Why have we perpetually been at war with them since 1973? Lastly, if "A" is for Afghania, why are we still so morbidly afraid to call "NWFP" Pakhtunkhwa or Afghania (based on 76-80% of the NWFP's population's ethnicity)?
