if you said you didn't believe in Buddha, would your parents beat you with a stick?

what's the difference between you and the rest of India?

Black musician exploited by surrounding population

My parents aren't that religious
and when I said it's not secular I meant as a nation

In terms of what? I mean, India is a country and sri lanka is another so theres that

Socio-economic, cultural and religious differences, i guess
But those apply to varying states in India too

we're non-secular even though 30% of people don't believe in God KEK

When I say secular I'm usually referring to the average person.
Do people bring up every 10 seconds like they do in the middle east or is it more of a private thing?

>Socio-economic, cultural and religious differences
Elaborate please

Wat

what did he mean by this

Thats a map of state religion, in european countries its due to monarchs and such only, but here its actually a state religion in practice
Deporting tourists for buddha tattoos etc

Depends where you live, the people and attitudes are quite different between colombo and a random village

really makes me think

Well India is modtly Hindu and has more christians than buddhists, whereas sri lanka is mostly Buddhist
Both cultures were largely influenced by their religions so they deviated there too as a result, different language but based off sanskrit and pali anyway, some different and some similar customs
India is generally poorer

Can you smell India from there? I'd imagine with a strong wind blowing from the north west it could rapidly become rather unbearable along bay across from the Gulf of Mannar.
Even India I've met in real life has smelt absolutely fucking vile.

tea
a lot of tea

do you look different from indians?

more or less rice and curry
no

Bananas, Footwear, and t-shirts

well, i think indians eat breads/naans/dosa/whatever more, though

buncha foreign stuff

Sri Lankan Kaffirs exploited in Colombo and other cities and towns. They get told they'll make money, the come in and perform are are often not paid or underpaid
