This is all very interesting - how Muslim men marry out of their religion to bring women in and yet they don't allow Muslim women to marry out of the religion (perhaps because they know good and well that, given the choice, no woman in her right mind would marry a man that was going to make her spend the rest of her life in a sack, take 3 other wives AND beat her if she got out of line?).
Many have brought up the fact that young Sikhs are wandering away from their heritage and dressing, acting, picking up the immorality of western society. But it's against human nature not to adapt to their environment so how would Sikh families prevent this?
The first Sikhs I ever knew were from India and they were only here a year or so before the husband cut his hair and put away the turban. The wife now has very short hair and wears suits and heels and you would never be able to tell their daughters from any of the other kids at the local High School. One doesn't believe in any religion at all! I'm not sure if she's an atheist but I think she is...
Then I met a Sikh man at my work who is also from India but he still wears the turban, although he trims his beard.
It sounds like a lot of young Sikhs are seeing their traditional ways as un-cool or something. Well, except Bhangra -- now that is AWESOME!
