Dear Nasci
If you live in a glass house, why are you throwing stones at others? Have you
stopped to consider
what Hindus might consider of YOUR beliefs? Put yourself in the shoes of a
Hindu and try and
relate to the Virgin Birth, Ascension into Heaven, Salvific value of Christ's
death, etc. Would
you not be incredulous? Yet, do you hear any Hindu mock you or your beliefs.
Outside the narrow
Hinduvta views of a minority (which is NOT Hindu philosophy and religion),
Hindus are a VERY
tolerant and respectful people. Is is too much to ask the same in return? And
if you are really
interested in fighting injustice why don't you speak up and fight for it within
the Christian
tradition. Take women's equality for example (and I am not refering to women
priests only). Can
you honestly say that Goan women are treated equally in the Goan Catholic home?
Do they have the
same access to education, money, and other benefits? Are they treated equally
in inheritance
matters? Are they offered the same access to good paying jobs? Are they treated
in a non-sexist
manner by Goan Catholic men?
Those who live in glass houses should clean their homes first as the mess
inside is visible
through the glass.
Regards,
George
