physicians heal thyself

Even agreeing to whatever written by you here(ridiculous to say the least), I must say that Hinduism(pseudo?)did greater harm to its own people in the name of caste for more than 2000 years.The effects such an innovative(!)system which has no parallel in history of mankind can be felt even now on almost all spheres of life in India.Here, caste is the true Brahma which is omnipotent,omnicient and omnipresent.

Aurangzeb's acts cannot be intrepreted with the hindsight available now.Were there no Hindu rulers who massacared people belonging to other religions? What about the Buddhist monks who were killed and eliminated from the country?Where are those magnificient viharas and great learnig centres? Did n't Shivaji plunder the Hindus like he did the muslims?

It is useless to discuss the bygone era when one must be concerned about Nandigrams,Nithari,Naxlites and the fact that the Indian billionares combined wealth is equivalent io one-fourth of India's GDP.Compare the media hype about the Forbes List,Liz-Arun marriage,crazy cricket fans.
