You are of course correct, I do not get entangled in areas where I do not have much to contribute, if I was an expert on some of these subjects I certainly would have input much by now, but I am an avid reader of the majority of posts on this forum, for they are the experts in the field, about SEZ especially, about casteism, about all things happening in Goa today. I still feel that you need to go back to your previous posts & see for yourself where you have said things that you have lately done u-turns on & have condemned others for their lack of religion, or for the over-zealousness of their religion. Neither of these are any of your or my business, I do not condemn people for their faith, or the lack of it, because it is NOT my business. You began to create a wall around yourself & then proclaimed you were just informing us pagans of how we are living, it is wrong of us to like like this and Jesus / Mary / etc are the way to salvation. If you take care to read what has been written by you and others who also critised your posts for its contents (it may help you to read "between the lines...........") then you will see my responses & reactions to your posts have been justified. You may say & do as you please on this forum, "...as long as it doesnt frighten the horses....." & we keep to the subject of Goa..........) & I am quite at liberty to say how I feel towards your comments to me. If you did not brazenly critise all & sundry AND place yourself up there "........ as an honest joe..." you would not have heard a whisper from me, or others on this forum. In future perhaps you should read what you have previously written and then compared it to the responses you received, they were created by you. I dont understand why you have to bite back when it is plain as the egg on your face that you started the whole debarcle in the first place. But as this is your Christmas Day, celebrating 2007 years of the birth of Jesus, I wish you & all the posters on this forum well on this day & all the following days, into the New Year 2008 onwards........ and I hope that your find an easier wasy around your faith, with a little more gusto, perhaps a little charitably too would go a long way, and less critism of it, unless you prefer to continue to accuse your clergy of diviousness in which case you may need to correct that before going anywhere near the feni bottle ever again. Next time you post your ancient medicinal advice, please remember that there are people out there who may take this as a cure and copy it, possibly doing them harm, therefore if you cant help yourself by repeating it all over again, put in a warning notice at the begining and end of your posts. We are not in ancient times any more, though some of the homeopathic medicines do copy it, as do medical practicioners as there is some truth in the ancient arts, it is by no means the only way to cure an illness, be it garlic tied around necks for curing "wind in the female gender" (but not in men??), but brighter brains in men for drinking feni before writing on Goanet...................... another u-turn!
