She is Hindu, I think.

[Super Mentalita]

Well at least she is not a muslim

[syyuge]

She is most likely to be Hindu, if not converted meanwhile.

Muslims in the subcontinent usually have more Arabic sounding names right ?

[Rational Jew]

I hope she's not a muzzie. Or otherwise, we would embarrass ourselves once again by selecting a muzzie as a beauty pageant, God forbid!

[Rubystars]

A lot of stupid Americans think that Indians are the same thing as Arabs. It could be due to all the Pakistanis muddying the waters because they often also equate Muslim to Arab.

You are right.

Exactly.

[Rubystars]

You'd think they'd know a little something about one of the most populated and diverse countries in the world but they don't.

[syyuge]

Sometimes in few cases, it is very difficult to visibly understand and differentiate even for us. Say for example the Sikhs and orthodox Hindu warlords at occasions dress and look just like the Taliban or AQ. We differentiate them only through their languages, smells or dirtiness of clothes.

At the same time I'm angry that many Americans don't know the difference between someone from Saudi Arabia and someone from India. When they hear "Indian descent" their brains shouldn't jump to Arab terrorism. It makes no sense to me.

I can see what you mean about the visual aspect in some cases though.

[syyuge]

Saudi arabian dress is entirely different from the Indians. However some Americans can tend to confuse between the two only in case if they do not know anything about either the arab or the Indians. This is parallel to the cases where some Indians educated from the villages think that USA consists of two parts called North American continent and South American continent. They understand it correctly only after being specifically explained.

While I very strongly disagree with TV personality idolatry and the immoral Miss America materialism and sex pageant (which is not only immodest and wrong, but teaches that women should be proud to be labeled as sex objects), I thought I would chime in to make a point.

Most Americans are so ignorant and uneducated, that they think Jews are also Arabs and terrorists.

Seventy percent of all Americans can't find Israel (or Iran) on a map. Nearly one-third of Americans don't know who the Vice President is. Seventy percent of Americans do not know what the Constitution is.

This is why Barack Hussein Obama is in office and our country is quickly going down the toilet. Combine arrogant ignorance and all the perverted filth in the media and you have a recipe for disaster - just as the Bible tells us.

Yes she is born Hindu, but strange how America reacted to her as being Arab/Muslim. How come they dont confuse Boby Jindal as Muslim?

As a Hindu we shudnt care or bother about Nina Davaluri, we dont want American Hindu girls to see her as role model, they can have role models in Sunita Williams or Tulsi Gabbard. Already American Sikh pornstar Sunny Leone is causing enough damage.

Shame that Indian media too is talking about Nina Davaluri, why cant they talk about American Hindu Vishnu Pandit who died in Navy Yard shootout?

[syyuge]

Details about Vishnu Pandit have started emerging:

Shah rukh khan

Also, do you think Bollywood is as wicked as Hollywood?

I saw her picture and she looks white. People say that some people don't like her because she's not white but she's just as white as other dark skinned white Asians (Jews, Arabs, Persians, Armenians, Georgians, etc...). Some Indians belong to other races but the ones that are white are Aryans (Real Aryans, not Hitler's definition of Aryan.). Aryans started the Hindu caste system to separate themselves from the Dravidian Indians which are the dark ones related to Australian Aboriines. Other Indians are Oriental since India border Oriental countries to the East.

Yes. In fact most Muslims usually have Arabic names.

[angryChineseKahanist]

interesting points.
I was going to ask our official token Hindu about this, but he already spoke. He has spoken.

My son was 5 years old when he memorised almost all the countries of the world on the globe and on google maps.
That includes Israel, Cook Islands, Easter Island, Christmas Island, and about hundred others.

She's prettier than many other Miss America pageant winners.

Dravidians are related to Australian Aboriginals?
