Well said. Fortunately or unfortunately, Churchill Alemao rose to the
occasion and capitalized on the issue. We may or may not agree with him on
many issues, but on this one, he certainly stuck his neck out. There is no
point in fuming against him. He provided the focal point for the agitation
against the filming of a clearly blasphemous film.

I believe there is more than meets the eye, in this instance. The
flexing of muscles and making a point to the Right Wing Hindus,
Fundamentalist Muslims, Believers and what have you, played a part.
I believe Churchill could not allow himself to be shown as being
gutless! Had the Catholic Goans quietly acquiesced by rolling over,
maybe tomorrow they would find themselves being the brunt of, who
knows?? The point being made, is that we are not ready to be taken as
lambs to the slaughtering house.
