[Goanet] judeo
Folks, for possibly hundreds of years, there was a tradition to burn a "Judeo"(made of cloth and stuffed with straw and fireworks) on the feast of Sao Joao , which is today. I think the church was mainly responsible for putting an end to this custom. Does anyone know how this custom originated, and did the judeo signify Judas, or a Jew? regards--Gilbert. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-W-E-B---S-I-T-E-=-=-= To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from GoaNet | http://www.goacom.com/goanet === For (un)subscribing or for help, Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dont want so many e=mails?

I submit that we need to look at these factors. Similarly, in Argentina.. the various factors for the increased Mortality among AmerIndians after the arrival of Europeansand before...Arawaks vs Caribs... having been noted Has the total NUMBER of AmerIndians gone down( with the appropriate correction) in Argentinaor is it only the case that the Immigration from Switzerland, Germany, Israel, South Africa, Lebanon and Italyincreased... giving Argentina the demographic percentage of 97% Caucasians and 3% AmerIndians/ Meztizos. BTW: the % Population of AmerIndians in Guyana is similarly ~ 2%. But.the Population of (East) Indian migrants is close to 49% Did the immigrants from India 'systematically eradicate' the AmerIndians? Of course not!

Re: [Goanet] Darwin & Argentina
Very good George. I cannot say I have travelled extensively in S. America. I have been to Mexico, Brazil and travelled in Argentina (on business). One thing very noticeable when arriving in B.A. is the almost non-existence of non-europeans (unlike Mexico - Mexico City or Acapulco or Brazil - Rio). What George has quoted is what I was told - systematic eradication of the native population. This is one of the reasons that it is so popular with White South Africans fleeing South Africa - also nazi Germans fleeing post war Germany. An Argentinean was described to me as: "An Italian pretending to be English" Also Argentineans told me that "God gave them the most beautiful country in the world but to balance it off he gave them the Argentinean people".

[Goanet] NEWS-KERALA: Medical pay seat bonanza for non-resident Keralites
Medical pay seat bonanza for non-resident Keralites By Sanu George, Indo-Asian News Service Thiruvananthapuram, June 23 (IANS) Five new medical colleges in the pipeline means good news for Kerala -- especially for non-resident Keralites (NRK) who will get priority for 50 new seats. The state has six medical colleges with 800 seats altogether. Only 22 of these are reserved for NRKs. The new five private colleges waiting for a nod from the Medical Council of India (MCUI) are the Amritha Institute of Medical Science, Kochi, Pushpagiri Medical College, Thiruvalla, Medical Mission Hospital, Kolencherry, Dr Somerwell Memorial CSI Medical College Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram and the Imam Rafi Muslim Educational Charitable Trust, Thrissur. Each plans to start with 100 seats, of which 50 per cent would be filled on merit. The rest would be reserved for different categories of students, including 10 percent for NRKs. To qualify for this 10 percent, an applicant has to be at least 17 and related to an NRK. He or she can be a close relative like a child or sibling or even a first cousin or nephew/niece. If there aren't enough such applicants, the colleges will consider such kin of foreign citizens of Kerala origin and in their absence, the kin of non-resident, non-Keralite Indians. The MCI has visited the proposed five colleges twice. Its permission is expected after a third visit soon. An official of the Dr Somerwell Memorial CSI Medical College Hospital said they were ready to start classes and were only waiting for the MCI approval. "Only the NRK seats are vacant, the rest has been filled," he added. For the new pay seats, a candidate has to pay $60,000 or its equivalent in Indian currency at the time of admission by demand draft made out to the Commissioner for Entrance Examinations and payable at Thiruvananthapuram. An NRK applicant has to provide a certificate to prove he is an Indian citizen. He also has to provide other documents like the original marksheet of the qualifying examination, an age certificate and a declaration from an NRK establishing their relationship. --Indo-Asian News Service =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-W-E-B---S-I-T-E-=-=-= To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from GoaNet | http://www.goacom.com/goanet === For (un)subscribing or for help, Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dont want so many e=mails?

[Goanet] Paganism in 21st Century
Miracles are for pagans. It's blind faith and being imposed on others by all so called "religions." Religious mechanisms begin brainwashing one since the childbirth and eventually makes it difficult at later years to detach from it. Eventually those who wish to persue believing in miracles will do no justice to fellow beings, and will not bring in economic growth for the betterment of all. In our great country with the largest democracy in the world, people need economic growth, jobs, and food, clothing and security. Let us work towards achieving these goals. This space in valuable, so let's use it to make our influence count on those who govern us in our present times for a good future. __ Do You Yahoo!?
