Unnecessary Hooplah

entry into temples has to be only for believers. there is no question of even a dialogue in this regard. but specifically, the vayalar ravi controversy cud hv been better handled - the dad was a hindu & the paternal lineage cud hv been taken into consideration from the namboothiri perspective.

They don't have that freedom. As per thier rules, they consider the mother's religion. The law does not matter.

dude,
i knw that. the maternal lineage is followed by the others like nairs, ezhavas, etc. the namboothiris (brahmins) follow the paternal lineage. besides, it is not the religion that we are talking about. anyways, thanks for replying to my post.
