I agree that the other side is relatively large in numbers but saying that "there are no extreme secular opinions in Pakistan", is a hasty generalization and negation of ground realities.

We shall discuss it in some other more relevant topic.

Well, I do agree that there are a lot of intolerant people of all shades and political opinions in Pakistan but I don't think I'm generalizing (and certainly not ignoring the ground realities) when I say that there are no extreme secular opinions in Pakistan. At least, the way you put it which made it seem like such opinions are rampant on print and electronic media. So if you think I'm generalizing things inappropriately, you can simply correct my mistake by showing me those extreme secular opinions as they exist on media (which means plenty of them should be on the record). I'll change my opinion, I assure you.

We differ in apprehending an opinion as being extreme or not. So I don't think my efforts to quote articles from print media and video links from electronic media would lead us to any agreement on this issue. What I see as extremism might be an ordinary or acceptable behavior for you.

I'm only going by the standard definition of extremism, otherwise subjectively speaking that might mean a hundred things.

Very true i have never heard about any secular extremist who had killed any innocent people in the name of seclarism.. Well,religious extremism,which islam forbids and says to be moderate, is only hurdle in a way to pakistan's development and progress. Since 1947 religious extremists have held pakistan hostage and have pushed pakistan into hard situations in the name of jihad and pan-islamism.. Big noooooo to religious extremism. Extremist free pakistan is only solution of all the maladies.
