Description
Imagine a country where the boundaries are strictly determined by religion.
It's a sad thing that still a woman fears to get out from her house by her own. Pakistan is just opposite of India. In Pakistan you will see Islam, sadness, curiosity to external culture and lack of freedom.
After traveling all around the world I learned something important. When religion becomes as the law to rule the nation, It will cause nothing but sadness and fear which will lead civil and nation wars.
These days Pakistan is more chaotic then ever because of US peace operations to Taliban and newly elected president Asif Ali Zardari.

I like the angle and the tones of the photo, but I'd like to add that religion, Islam in this case, doesn't do this, or the correct interpretation of it at least.
I totally agree that in countries where citizens are of different religions, even the minority, religion and government should be separated in all forms so that the government cannot establish an "official" religion and consequently infringe on people's right to freely exercise their religion.
However, in countries like my own, Dubai, Islamic Sharia law is the prevailing legal system and we face no such problems.
I think this is a matter of lack of education, which in a way goes back to interpreting religion the wrong way and hence practicing it in an extreme way (which you mentioned in the description), which Islam is against in the first place.
I guess I just wanted to add my two cents.
Anyway, how have you been?
Enjoyed your trips?
