RESPONSE: Thanks for the enlightenment; please inform me, in the Hindu Religion do you have many Gods? Is there one Chief God and lesser Gods? I attended a wedding in Toronto and the Priest was supposed to be from the Kali temple. Is Kali a fierce Goddess, she was depicted as such. That aside it is to the credit of the Beer company, they immediately withdrew the commercial, as it offended the religious sentiments of the Hindus. They sought no justification, just withdrew unquestionably. Compare this with Shri Manohar Parrikar, who wanted to know what aspects of his, not too old, DVD did the Catholics feel offended about! cheers. Gabe Menezes. London England.
