I pray that the believers will grow stronger in the Faith; and that those who do not yet believe, will do so and become Christian! What a Wonderful World! I pray it will be a much more wonderful world if people do not become Christian, at least not the narrow view advocated by some, including the current Pope. A better view would be women priests, no discrimination based on sexual orientation, diversity of saints, diversity of Popes, etc. And I would add there is nothing wrong with being Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Parsi, atheist, agnostic, etc. Long live a secular world.

Well said Jesus Mario marie - Original Message - From: Jesus Mario B. Fernandes The recent coverage of news relating to the unfortunate and shocking murder of Fr. Eusebio Ferrao shows the levels of depth journalism, especially of the 'tele'-variety has sunk to. The worst culprits are those who masquerade as freelancers, purportedly following the news trail and signing off from the trail end.

[Goanet] Re: HIV test to be made mandatory for marriage
I totally agree with Elizabeth Carvalho's message on the topic Re: HIV test to be made mandatory for marriage.. The government does not have the right to legislate on a personal decision between two individuals. If either of the two parties (in arranged marriages) has any doubt then they can request the other individual to present the report of an HIV test as a condtion of the contract being undertaken. If we allow the Government to enter into the private lives of indiviuals with this proposed legislation .. will there be any way of stemming the invasion? marie d'souza
[Goanet] Re: Wildlife habitat under threat in Socorro
Dear Valentine Reading this article i have just realised what type of area is involved in the proposed development of Goa. (for Goans) Since forest land is involved perhaps the Ministry of Environment at the Centre should be informed and objections raised, rather than limiting ourselves to raising objections only within the Panchayat or the State - who tend to be corrupt and do not want to see the wider issues involved. marie - Original Message - Wildlife habitat under threat in Socorro .. Under assumption that very few people know where this IT Park is going to be located, I am taking the liberty to inform you all. .. IT Park is going to include this area. In fact it is proposed to include a huge area of 12.5 lakh sq. m. of prime forest land - the entire topmost ridge of the plateau stretching from Salvador-do-Mundo village in the south and ending on the border of Ucassaim village in the north. . ... But the questions we are raising about the necessity of destroying forest land (half of the area proposed for the IT Park is Private forest area),how the government proposes to treat sewage and garbage generated, whether it has conducted an Environment Impact Assessment are not only being met with silence from the government but are marie

Marie would like to say yes the Goa Govt. as well as the other state govts. and the Central Govt are all responsible because 1.- they are not doing enough to check that in their hospitals the same syringe and needle is not used on mulitple poor patients without proper sterilisation. (The govt hospitals cannot afford disposable syringes, I suppose) 2. they are not doing enough to check whether thier own as well as privately run blood banks, hospitals, clinics, laboratories, dental clinics, barber shops, tattooists are following proper prescribed procedures so that the virus is not spread from customer to customer.
