Is Thackeray a Terrorist?
Posted by srijiv Jan 24, 2002 11:24 am
Reading this article I wonder how stupid can the author be?

We all know that Thackeray is an evil man. But how can the author second the proposal of handing him over to Pakistan, when he has not committed any crime in Pakistani soil or against the state of Pakistan in particular?

This is plain streetside rabble rousing. How can such scum find its way into Chowk?



Hidden Hindus
Posted by srijiv Jan 4, 2001 01:45 pm
While describing the various forms of Hinduism, the authoress has forgot to mention a very important school of thought: Atheism. Hindu, or rather, Indian religion is probably the only religion in the world which even has atheism as one of the philosophical options.



India Unvarnished

The answers provided are reasonably good EXCEPT the fact that the author tries to defend Islam at any cost. Statements like ``Islam was avowedly a religion of peace`` are the worst lies spread by Islamic apologists. How can a religion that advocates torture and persecution of infidels call itself a religion of peace?

While the author has every right to criticize Hindus and their entrenched clergy, the Brahmins, fairness demands that he also expose the mindless violence and bigotry promoted by Islam right from the time of Muhammad. Otherwise, the history of Islam in India and elsewhere will remain sugar-coated fables.
