So you consider 14 percent support for terrorism, or alternatively 24 percent support for OBL (not considering whether those supporting him think he is responsible for terrorism) evidence of "widespread intolerance and dislike for interfaith dialog"?

We have different understandings of what "widespread" means then.

Stop playing the 'two highest offices' comment I have made. You know very well that is not what I meant when I told you to imagine it is a 'White'. Stop your word play, Maybe you are ready to be a second-class citizen or being denied something(however small or menial) just because of your colour or religion. Sorry Human beings arent.

What about Zakat, do you want me to post who accident insurance is given in Saudi Arabia?
If you are referring to legal obstacles, those are the only two that I currently see no political will, and possibly no popular support, to remove.

You can narrate all the existing discriminatory laws you want, my argument is that I see a will amongst Pakistanis to remove most of those obscurantist laws, while keeping the Islamic State identity - that the majority of the political parties elected have long maintained support for measures that rid the constitution of Zia's aberrations, and that all of that indicates that an Islamic State can indeed evolve into a progressive State with equality and rights for all.
