I immigrated to a different state, doing an immigrant job, mixing with immigrants of Muslim and Sikh religion and these people are very good people despite what white Australians say, I don't understand all the racism.
I found out from talking to Muslim snd Sikh people is that they do not drink alcohol and I think this is part of why people are prejudice towards them, Australians like alcohol and almost all socialising involves it. I know this because I do not indulge in alcohol.
I have been wanting to read the new testament bible, the koran and the Sikh holy book at the same time so I can understand the nuance and context of the religions and so when people bring the subject up I can discern things fairly, I am not religious but I appreciate the wisdom and way of being a good person that religious texts teach and feel if people want to practice their faith in peace, this is ok.
