The results were no surprise. People do not care abt religion , they want development.Modi facilitated that. Returning to my favourite question, Who is a hindu?
The results in Gujarat were no surprise. Most Indians donot care abt religion , they want development and Modi facilitated it. I am repeating my fav question- Who is a Hindu?
To understand why Modi appeals Hindus, you need to be a Hindu living in Gujarat for 10 years post Babri Masjid demolition. There used to be violence and attacks and riots by Muslims on every anniversary of masjid demolition. They ran through the state fearless of law and order, the state, that was then ruled by congress. You need to feel the fear and intimidation felt by Hindus in their own country even after being the majority of the population of the country.
And then in 2002 every thing changed. The Hindus got the sence of security and a leader who cared for them.
That is why Modi appeals Hindus. Still words can't explain the feelings of hindus pre and post modi erra.
And the media n the western world will never acknowledge that. But who cares, Modi will prove the point by actions rather than words.

The attack on christians is the reflection of the attack on the Hindus. Hindus cannot keep quiet always for all those attrocities they are getting from other religions. Its time to give it back.
Most of the English Journalists are educated in Convent schools-where Christianity is force fed. As it happens in the convents, female reporters are restricted from sporting Bindi on their fore head. They are exposed to case studies and lessons that decry India and Hinduism in journalism schools and media houses. Therefore they have a fixed anti Hindu prism in their reporting. It is combined with elite and class arrogance that makes them reject the grassroots leaders like Modi, Lalu, Yadhav, Mayavati, Uma Bharati, etc. They are relatively OK with urbane, suave and elite leaders like Chandra Babu, Navin Patnaik, Vasundara Raje, Sheila Dixit. Recently a reputed journalist of NDTV was asking Arun Jaitley how could an urban suave person like you become friend of Narendra Modi?. It doesnt take Sonia to task for Muslim appeasement-such as Ram dont exist affidavit, Taslima ill treatment, 15% planning allocation, etc. Sonia says something sensational and half a dozen of her spoke persons come give varied explanations appealing to different vote banks. Media doesnt have the fire to challenge Sonia hit and run politics. Because MEDIA PERSONS WORSHIP HER WHITE SKIN & ITALIAN ORIGINS.

You are absolutely correct about some of the English media in India. Media, particularly the English Media, is not only communal, but extremely corrupt and sold out to foreign interests. They live on the doles from western media and countries, & christian organisations to spread all sorts of caulumny against Hindus in India. 14 of the 17 editors of major media are christians and communists. India Today, which was a respected journal till 3 years ago, has entered into relations of sorts with foreign media such as CNN(an anti-India US channel) and Voice of America(another anti-Indian propaganda media channel)and started two TV channels Headlines News(in English) and Aajtak in Hindi. Both are highly tilted towards foreign loyalties and spreading foreign culture in India. Headline News(I call it Headless News) can be seen with most foreign, foolish and stupid programs about western cultural mores of Hollywood actresses, and models. These editors are obsessed with white skin. No wonder they love Sonia Gandhi and support her against their own countrymen. They are in short Jaichands of India and can be called even traitors, who have sold their souls. I consider them a security risk to the country.

A Dalit President could not save Dalits in our country. A Sardar could not save Sardars. A Muslim President could not save Muslims. A Modi will not save Hindus also. 1 lakh farmers suicided in Vajpayee's regime. A secular solution must come at centre.
It is heartening to read an article which gives very clear picture of the mood of the people, which the so called secularists failed to predict. In fact many people do not accept the argument that a Hindu, who asserts his rights, ceases to be a secularist.
Majority hindus are sick of these secularists and will express their anger when the time comes. The so-called secularists includes Congress, Left parties and electronic media beware. You can not fool the people all the time. Kindly take notice and make course correction or risk being marginalised.
I find censors, censoring passages of inconvenient passages of the Bible. Is there no freedom of Expression to reproduce passages without any comments?

New life! Has it shook your belief. Much as the censor may use his scissors, every word of it was borrowed from different parts of the Bible. This confirms that Bible is fit to be banned.
As the years go by and common man gets more educated and AWARE he or she will realize India is the land of HINDUISM where are other religion are welcome as long as they agree to live free UNDER THE HINDUISM umbrella and not attempt to take the umbrella down . If they cannot then they should get out or convert back to Hinduism or to a religion not hostile to Hinduism like Buddhism .
