Amlan-da,
I am sorry if I hurt your feelings, but when someone
questions why you do not want cows to be killed - or that
most Hindus do not want cows to be killed - I gave a frank
answer. I also mentioned that Hindus have among them -
Tantriks who eat human flesh ---if you consider that I am
glorifying cannibalism - well it is your view.
The fact is that the tribals ( I assume you are from Assam
- and not a tribal) from various parts of North East -till
recently atleast -- have been eating dogs and other animals
-- just like the Chinese. I never said that it is good or
bad. You made the judgement.
Umesh
PS: personally I can eat anything - unless ofcourse you
tell is me what it is --maybe even dogs and cats and rats!!

Why do you always reek of the attitude that your culture or

practised in your religion or in the part of India that you
come from
is the most superior or the supposedly right way of doing
things?
The questions you ask definitely have academic and research
value but
you do not at all seem to be genuine in your inquest, at
least not to
me.
Amlan.
