I think someday such a forum might lead to riots because of foolish comments made by individuals who are literate enough but not "educated" to understand that religion is personal.
I found the priest explanation fairly logical and there does not seem to be any malice on his part.
I don't see the discussions below talking anything about whats written above. Add value to the write-up or our knowledge base. I read comments to understand perspectives and not to see some silly fights.
This is not a forum to target Christians, Muslims, Brahmins or SC/ST/OBCs. But inspite of this some "educated" frustrated soul will come out and reply with harsh words to this message too. There is a lot of pent up anger - release it, but not to fill up about 30 pages of junk on this site!
