There are hundreds of moderate and fundamentalist Christians in this forum, most of whom have not publicly expressed any concern about the Christians who have been killed. There are a small number of non-religious people and perhaps, a few Muslims here as well, who have kept their feelings to themselves. And yet, Gilbert singles out for blame the handful of residual moderate Hindus on Goanet. Is this type of discriminatory attitude and communal mentality towards people who are different from oneself a healthy thing? Does it promote communal harmony? Cheers, Santosh
