I agree with the views expressed by Harleen and several others. I think it is high time that the belligerence and venom expressed on the emails by various sections/ groups needs to stop. It is defeating the sole purpose of a chapter like this...... Hope some good sense prevails in the minds of a few fundamentalists . It's time to rise above these petty issues. Jaspreet S.

What is the purpose of this discussion? Is it going to change anything? Is it going to bring back all those innocent lives already lost? Are we ever going to learn from history? And I mean 'learn' from history and not just recount it ad nauseum?? Violence is a reality. It is a manifestation of the basic human instinct of flight or fight and is born out of deep fear. What are we so scared of? The other? The other who is nothing more or less than us? A mere reflection of myself and yet I am so scared that I have to kill, maim and destroy in order to feel safe? In my opinion any space (like this e-space ) is an opportunity; to connect and communicate. Using it to batter - albeit by words, seems like a violation. Freedom of speech is one of the most valluable rights we have, perhaps we need to remember that all rights go hand in hand with some responsibility and compassion too. Its good to be honest but how and why are also equally important things to keep in mind. Sorry, I may be going a bit ballistic in my reactions. Would like to draw the groups attention to Surrogacy and Gujarat becoming the 'cradle of the world" Please respond. Please consider all sides of the issue especially the economic, emotional, and exploitation angles. regards,Harleen Harleen WaliaTechnical Support - Child ProtectionGOI (MWCD) / UNICEF605/A Wing - Shastri Bhavan,Dr. Rajendra Prasad Marg, New Delhi:110001Mob - +91-99102-88683 fax - +91-11-23070479"I am not obligated to win... but I am committed to keep trying to do and be my best ...every day " Jharkhand Forum | Jharkhand.org.in/forum _________________________________________________________________ Need to know now?
