in fact, for example, hindus say that the hindu can't be fundamentalists because there's no fundamentalists in hinduism and maybe i'm using the words in the terms loosely without being in a pretension that i perhaps should be more careful. yeah.

[laughter] [cheers and applause] rick santorum is putting the issue of gay marriage in terms everyday people can understand. if you give napkins and paper towels equal status, you undermine the sanctity of the thing you u

i think more of us need to come together where we are atheist, muslim, hindu, whatever faith. i think we can meet on common goals and try to establish something, work towards goals that we may not believe have come together on foundational beliefs or practices. i think there are thing that is we can come together on. one of those things i read a quote once again words make worlds. one the things i read in usa today article about general petraeus who has not been assigned, he continued to use islamic terrorist. there's no such thing of terrorism in islamic. i thought it was unfortunately that he continues to use that throughout his term. one the things you used the term, the term that you used was fundamentalism. i think that's a tricky word when it comes to islam or any religion. because someone that might look at me and say, wow, he's strict. i think a radical person like the kkk or al qaeda or some of the forests individuals or group. i don't know what you think of that in terminology and how it affects people and thinking. >> thanks for your compliment. as i mention in the

we're working along with the rest of the community, which is hindu, muslim and christian.n this evening, it has been a message to the whole world, that if this community can work in a difficult time together, and the rest of the community work together, i do not think these riots will succeed on the street. >> would you say that you are taking ownership of where you live? >> we are not taking ownership. but we do have to protect it. if you think somebody is going to attack you, before somebody attacks you, if you prepare, then there is less chance of an attack. we are working along with the police, but the police have minimal resources and the police cannot be everywhere. >> if, for example, looters were to attack a part of the temple -- >> we do not want to let anybody damage god's house. >> thank you so much. talking to temple leaders in west london. over to singapore with an update on the global markets. >> at least for one day asian investors are cheering the gains in the market. they are rallying well following a trend on wall street which had its best day in two year

you had indians trying to rush south into what was going to be india and -- sorry, hindus and sikhs fleeing into what would be india and muslims fleeing north into what would be pakistan and there was mass slaughter, mass chaos. tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, were killed during that chaotic burst which has divided the two countries not only geographically but psychologically and politically ever since. host: what would jinnah think if he came back today, saw the country? guest: i think he would be very discouraged. there has been a long series of really unfortunate political developments in pakistan. it's never really been able to develop strong democratic institutions, strong leadership. it's had a number of civilian leaders either killed or thrown out of office before their time was due. it's had a number of military interventions for various reasons. there have been positive moments. in fact, i describe one scene in the book. there was a movement by lawyers. there are many lawyers in pakistan. and they spearheaded a movement for the restoration of democracy in 2007 when

multicultural society in india, and particularly a hindu right that really does not like muslim migrants. so that's a site of potential conflict. in terms of why climate scientists aren't making more of tipping points, i think they are arguing that tipping points are crucial, and that's why they're arguing for radical mitigation -- >> but they did, they're talking about doing things now, but they're not really looking at when they will occur. in other words, planning now -- >> for how to adapt, you mean? >> >> no, planning now for a world after one of these tipping points are reached. except, in fact, nothing's going to be done until something big happens, and they'll look back 20 years from now and say, gee, we should have been planning for this. >> well, take james hanson, for example. in his latest
