if a temple like sabarimala considers that human ity and faith is more than a religion, why dont the people at guruvayoor understand this basic principle? whats their logic of not allowing non hindus to the temple
But, why should non-Hindus be allowed into a Hindu temple at all? What is the logic in allowing non-Hindus into a Hindu temple?
People who hate Hinduism, people who believe that Islam and Christianity are better than Hinduism converted into other religions. Their hearts are full of hatred for Hinduism. Now, why do you want to visit a Hindu temple? Why do you want to look at a "stone"? Why do you want to look at "animal gods"? Why should non-Hindus be allowed into a Hindu temple?

You have nailed the coffin.It is not Hinduism alone which dictates the practises of the temle but the tradition of each temple.Each temple is set on a certain tradition which is followed for ages.

Can we look from the perspective of rituals and practises followed in certain temples. And these rituals and practises makes these temples more holier for the beleivers :-)
Think of so many of Buddist , Taosist , Shintoist , mosques... where other belief or religion people are not allowed to enter. Are they being discriminative? or just because we are ignorant of their belief and practises deem them discriminative and say god is biased !!!
Is God Biased ? for an aetist , this query would sound imminent , but for a beleiver , it sounds insulting .. so where do we stand on this?

I fully agree with you. Actually I am an Atheist but I feel it is non of my business to argue with believers because it is sick ego trip to preach others

Ya i totally agree with the views.The Hindus are always being targetted for their holy beliefs.Noone intervenes the other religions including Islam who prohibit other religion people from entering their places. Hindus are prosecuted for their tolerence.But i will advise all respect your traditions and be a real Hindu. Prasad J.
