I watched a documentary about this. It's really inspiring actually, there is so much work that goes into that I wouldn't have even thought of but the amount of work they put into this every day is really great.

That's because in Sikhism you're supposed to help the less fortunate. It's not like they're disregarding their religion to better humanity. That's what they're supposed to do
And in other religions you're *NOT* supposed to help your fellow (wo)man?
In fact in Christianity, Judaism and Islam (the three monotheistic religions) you're supposed to practice charity and help the less fortunate... yet...
That's the point I'm trying to make. The way the title is written it sounds like he's trying to say that they are ignoring their religion to help them. But that's not it. What they're doing is actively practicing their religion
Sikh are good. no religious wars, just goodness. are you poor, have nothing to eat and aren't Sikh? have a free dinner at their holiest place. Religious wars? Nope, not even once. Healing wounded and helping poorer? Totally. You are not a Sikh? You are totally human, like all human. You wanna quit Sikhism? They are sad, but no bad after-effects. Of course yo can be with your Sikh family and friends. Not one of them, but I respect them, like nearly no religion. They earn it by being good and not being bad. Totally.
