Hindu Religion is Tolerant for Criticism
by asokan a on Jun 11, 2007 08:48 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Criticism is well tolerated rather encouraged in Hindu religion and good suggestions are accepted and implemented. So it is just a matter of time the practice of temple purification will disappear. Untouchability in any form should be condemned. The temple priests should desist from discrimination and concentrate on the service of God. Any society based on religious edicts will create hatred and unrest. It will lead to exploitation as we see in many countries. Religion is opium. It is also poison.

All the contributors please note that is NOT "caste" but "religion" that is being discussed. The question is whether a person born to a Christian mother is entitled to perform religious rites in a Hindu Temple. Well, if the temple rules say "No", it is "No"!. All those who oppose temple purification may please fight for entry of all communities into Kaaba and talk thereafter, if ever you succeed. Otherwise, kindly do not engage in verbal duals. Please go to Middle East and see for yourselves as to how you are discriminated against. In fact, when I raised the issue of Kaaba with one Muslim lady, she coolly suggested that I should convert to Islam. Same rule applies here also!! Thanks

Such "TOLERANT" guys claim that Taj Mahal is a Hindu temple. Who knows, they may want to purify TAJ MAHAL also.

Awara Uncle,

Keep up with this attitude and sometime soon the silent (TOLERANT) majority will "purify" the whole country not just one temple!!

I am sure you will agree that such "purification" was called for by people like you?!!

Don't blame me if you become the first victim of such purification. And never forget that you are the minority, not the people who are fighting for private sector reservations. You cannot touch them.

All your purification will finally end in a great Agnipariskha called all-India caste riots for private sector reservation. That will be the end of all purification.
