I agree with your comment that organized religion is bad. It is like saying guns are bad. Because a gun can be used to attack and defend. So the application decides whether it is good or bad.
I dont know why you stop short of saying that the Hindu temple in Mathura and Ayodhya be rebuilt and the mosque should also be rebuilt in an alternate land. Then BJP which you hate so much will not have any political issue for elections. Why are you so keen on giving BJP this opportunity ? The Tehelka sting will probably help BJP more than anyone else as you can see from the rediff postings.
Elections should be fought on real issues that affect common man. BJP fight it by division based on religion and congressed fights it by appeasement and division by caste. Has the congress rule over the 50 years helped Muslims or even Dalits in any way ? A few succeed while the vast majority is still finding it difficult to make two ends meet.

Milind I will never support building of mosques and temples. If the amount of effort and money spent on religion had been spent on development India would have been a superpower by now. Yesterday I saw a shocking news in the paper. A woman aged 27 in US didn%u2019t want to take blood transfusion when giving delivery bcoz she was a Jehovas Witness in which blood transfusion is not allowed. The husband pleaded with her but she did not listen and died leaving the infant alone. I was so angry to read this it shows how religion has blinded people they chose to die than live.

due IMRAN, you are simply confused about what is happening in India. Its not the lack of money that is hampering development but its the corrupt culture that Congress has spread in these 60 years. Rajiv Gandhi famously said only 15 paise reaches the poor out of every 1 Re. Now talk about development.
As long as there are corrupt politicians (CPI and CONGRESS, BJP comes at last) India can't progress

Hi Imran Why you quote an incident in USA. just goto kereala or get a copy of Madhyamam daily(a news paper for muslims), You can see advts asking for kidney doners ONLY from Muslims because the patient is a muslim. I have seen these types of advts many times(for kidney,rare group blood etc). So fix ur community first before criticising Jehova(they are gone case any ways- not going to change)
