South Asian Film Festival in Goa from Fri (June 27) to Mon (June 30) At Kala Academy, and ESG, Panaji, Goa http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2008-June/076384.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >True .For rational men it is nothing religious. But if one carefully reads >into the motives of certain cults, they try to convet anything into attack >on Hinduism.Vidyadhar Gadgil has explained this well in Herald. Certainly this is an over-reaction. How many Hindus follow the religion in deed and spirit ? All businessmen involve in corrupt practices and then do pilgrimage to religious centers to atone of their sins. A friend of mine bumped into an ex-AG from Goa --- known to be hobnobbing with the criminal elements in Goa --- at Tirupati temple!!! And our good friend Sri Sri Sri (forget how many Sris I need to append) Ravi Shankar is minting money in the name of educational institutes!!! Having said that, Islam is no better. The violent mentality in the Muslim youth coupled with teaming with their buddies needs to be nipped in the bud. Who will do it ? With the law and order totally inept, one needs a militant force. However, it is equally bad if it comes in the name of another religion. samir
