Dear Veerapandia, I agree with you totally 200%!!!you couldnt have expressed it better!! It was the Christian missionaries who eradicated Sati, Child marriage etc. They were the ones who tried to rehabilitate widows and eradicate the stigma associated with them. North India is a place where (to deep shame) sati is practiced and glorified in the name of Hinduism!! Ask any Hindu Godman to come and touch a leprosy patient with his own hands, which the Stains did for which they were burned alive!!!I am deeply ashamed to be even called an Indian when I remember this horrific Incident. (Pseudo) Hinduism seeks to bring India into a barbaric setup where widows are forced to be burned alive, where the unprivileged and the low caste have no place in society, where the mentally challenged are chained and treated brutally, where small children who should play and have fun are forced into marriage, where dowry and dowry harrasment are a way of life, where the sick,the physically challenged, the lepers, are left in the streets, where LOVE has no role in society, ONLY SELFISHNESS, RITUALS, AND CEREMONIES. Let ALL religion and culture live together in peace and harmony.
