I am not a brahmin. Historians and scientists have debunked the theory. Max Mueller, christian missionary proposed this theory towards the end of 19th century. Before that nobody thought about it.

forget those theories. Why was there fight against Sankrit in TN? Why was there fight against Hindi in TN? Why was there fight agains Brahminism in TN?
These are all war against Aryan invasion. But Dravidians don't invade the Aryan with their culture or language or their literature. "yaarum erukkum edathil erunthu kondaal ellaam soukiyamae". So, Aryans should learn to keep their culture and god within their area. If they force it on Dravidians, they would fight back.
Why is not Murugan worshipped in North? Why should be Ram believed in South?

Ramanuja initiated untold numbers of non brahmins into the brahminical faith. most brahmins in tamil nadu are indigeneous and even look so. However, it is convenient for political purposes to portray the divide as a racial one. It is odious and what more, clearly most people get fooled by it.
Even if one were to think of people as "natives" and "outsiders", you are doing nothing but persecuting your own cousins. It is amazing how much stupidity goes on in the name of race!

I am a Hindu. By definition, Hindu is someone who believes that there are multiple ways in which one can reach god or salvation. In my village, I will pray to Esakiyamman. I will go to Siva temple also. I will go to Krishna temple also in city.
It does not matter which god or which path you take to attain salvation as far as we dont hurt others.
Ok Ram is dark so how come he is aryan. Acoording to definition of Max Mueller, he shud be a dravidian. So did aryans later added Rama as black so that they can worship a black god.
