Gabe Menezes posed me a question saying: Are only Hindus allow to reincarnate, or is it that every human can reinacrnate? Dr. Barad, what does your inner self tell you, what were you before you became Barad (Reference: Goanet Digest, Vol 5, Issue 809, Message: 1, dated: Sun, 1 Aug 2010)
My response: I repeat the article titled "A Hindu America?" July 24, 2010 by Francis X. Clooney, S.J. along with views of Lisa Miller that appeared in "America - The National Catholic Weekly" (ANCW) provoked my thoughts. If that article did not provoke your thoughts I would only say it's because of your high level thinking logic. However, be informed that I have already provided you with the web link for the article I posted to Goanet. If you have any queries, I think, you are free to post your basic questions/queries to that web site (This website does take comments from readers). And after I read your questions/queries to ANCW - the website I referred to, you will better understand my answer to your question i.e. "what were you before you became Barad" Best regards, U. G. Barad * * * In every way, the Goans of Bombay were part of the great melee that was this metropolis, distinct perhaps in the way communities often are, holding on to their own traditions but merging slowly nonetheless and forming the thin thread of nationhood that would eventually become India. -- Selma Carvalho, in *Into the Goan Diaspora Wilderness*.
