RE:Liar francois !

Dear Thamizh Kudi Magan, this is the problem in all humanity, not just Hinduism. Look even in monolithic Islam, the Shia and Sunni are having civil war over a minor turn of events in history. Every group looks with different eyes at the situation, and arguments and heated emotion from any side is not going to magically convince the other person. Do you think this century Shia/Sunni will all become totally happy and united? Do you think Protestant/Catholic in Ireland, or Jews/Muslims/Christians (even though they all believe in Jesus and Abraham) become completely happy?



I fear not..while the caste system was introduced as a occupational distinction, it solidifed to reduce mobility...now each group has contempt and hatred for other...will this magically go away from each and every person this century, or next...you must admit this possibility is very low.



Humans when faced with irreconcilable beliefs have settled things two ways, one by moving to different location, or if that is not possible, a war of annihilation. I wish it were otherwise, but you seem intelligent and you have to acknowledge this. I fear the days of India as a single nation are coming to an end.
