Re: # 283 Nice try Dalit. Took you some time though. Just a polite addition. Modern India is not run by Manusmriti but by Ambedkarsmriti. Hope you get the point. More Hindus know of and cannot get by without the later than the former.

Re: # 158 Time is ripe, sir! I hope I did not offend by intruding in an `internal discussion`. Thanks for responding.

Re: # 488 You are right. These RSS wallahs want to make rock climbing a `arena sport` if you allow me to borrow your metaphor. In trying to fight a demon they have grown horns of their own. Imagine a beautiful woman with horns.

Re: # 486 That was profound!
Hazrat Sarmad Shaheed: The Naked Sufi Martyr
Posted by southasian Jul 20, 2005 10:57 am
A small point for you learned gentlemen. From a bit of surfing Islam related websites and your discussions I gather that the Prophet was a wise man. When asked by people if he could perform miracles, he is supposed to have said that he was a ordinary human being chosen by Allah to convey his message only (so do not expect miracles).


My little point is that only Allah could have decided whether Mohammed would be the last prophet or somebody else. While the prophet is no more with us, now only Allah can decide the issue. If Allah wants to give a little bit more of message, he would need more Prophets since He is not in the habit of doing his own job himself. A relevant message could be something like ``Thou shalt not blow up yourself!`` and so on.

I know expecting a response from you learned guys is a bit too much of a longing considering that you are more interested in meanings of words like Baghiya.

No offences meant.

Re: # 270 Dalit: Whatever religion you follow hasn`t taught you any decency either. You either try to insult or respond to insult. You don`t respond to reasonable questions asked in a reasonable manner. You invent an insult where there is none. You heap insult where its not needed. I am not sure which tolerant and decent religion you follow.

Let me guess what your response will be:

heheheh reasonable questions heheheh Hindus heheheh

Let me see if you can improve on this.

Re: # 261 Dalit you are arguing well. However your laughter dilutes the impact. There are definitely interesting issues you are raising. Food for thought irrespective of whether you are actually dalit or not. I am also interested in knowing your definition of a dalit in modern India.

Dalit: Broadly your posts cover two areas.
i) Mythology
ii) The ills of Hindu society

Mythology needs no comments.

As for the ills of Hindu society, we are working towards it. Nobody persecuted Dr. Ambedkar for his views calling his views blasphemous to the best of my knowledge. Instead he was chosen to write the Indian constitution. These ills continue in various forms and various degrees even today, but the state and society in general continue to correct and improve itself. Criticism is the seed for progress. We should encourage it and learn from it.

Mike: For the reasons cited above I don`t agree with your comments.

Re: # 250 My contention is let invisibles be what they are: invisibles.
