i as a hindu am proud of an india where we have a sikh prime minister, muslim president and even a christian leader. let the rest of the world learn from us how to rise above petty differences -- that is truly india's role. if india remains a mere hindu nation, that will be the death of india's spirit.
you must be overdosing on hindi movies of the 80s where foreign hands line up in shady dens to destabilise india. does anyone really believe the sankaracharya arrest has anything to do with a christian conspiracy?
the benny hins of the world are best fought by allowing them to parade their nonsense and let people see through them. our poor and illiterate are allowed to choose their leaders and make decisions on development, economics and society in the process, but when it comes to choosing which religious discourse they listen to, they need to be protected from 'evil' influences by their 'wise' government or 'concerned' hindu leaders?
and you seem to have been away from europe for too long - nowhere is the pressure to remove religion from public life more than in western europe.
