AF. --- Bhandare bhandare1978 at yahoo.com wrote: we all have our pet peeves ..its muslim for someone and saraswat bamons for the others... regards b ---------- -- Bhandare,As a (non-practicing) Christian I am ashamed of you asa Hindu. As a Goan, I am ashamed of you as afellow-Goan, if infact you are one. There is not onesentence that comes out of your mouth that isconciliatory or unifying. I think Goanet is a forum to discuss issues and ideas. You use it to disseminate your particular brand ofvitriol and bigotry. If infact you are interested inthe secular credentials of India, by all means putforward your facts, your displeasure with aspects ofreligion that flow over into the secular fabric ofsociety. However, to refer to a whole section ofsociety as your "pet peeves", assures me that you andyour type have no interest in a secular India and youwill not rest until the entire Christian and Muslimcommunity is annihilated. I encourage you to take advantage of the variouscourses offered in the US on tolerance and diversity. Some of them may do you some good. Failing which, Iadvise you to take up a job is a multi-cultural citylike Dubai. Two things will happen to you, you willend with working with a Muslim as your boss, a Hinduas your colleague and maybe even a Christian as yourfriend. The other thing that will happen to you isrealising that the Arabs don't care what type ofIndian you are, Sarawat, Brahmin, Dalit, Christian orMuslim. The them, we are all "malhind", a pejorativeterm used by them to refer to Indians. At this ironicmoment in your life, you will realise we are all thesame. selma
