Governments should recognize both opposite and same sex marriages



Supporting arguments

Sikhs in positions of power are obligated to use their capabilities to reduce the amount that other Sikhs are exposed to ideas that are contrary to Sikhism because this exposure increases the likelihood that Sikhs will engage in improper behavior. [1]


Sikhism has a historical tradition of sovereignity in part of India, and Sikhs today should reclaim that legacy by creating a Sikh state, Khalistan, there. [2]

Opposing arguments

Part of Sikhism is being tolerant of the ideas of others, which requires that governing be secular. [3]


Sikh traditions around an ideal state include religious neutrality as a core component. [4]


Societies should be governed based on secular principles, not Christian or any other religion. [5]
