As India is growing stronger, registering its presence globally, the money has started taking first seat everywhere and capitalists forces are now forcing religion into back seat. Reason is simple, religion has the potential and power to challenge nefarious designs of these market forces.
Start from book on Christ where a newer angle was fabricated and a lineage was connected to Jesus Christ who so far had been considered only father of christians. A fanatic demanded head of D. Brown.
Second came much talked cartoons of Mohammed published in some journal in France. Everybody enjoyed it. It had hurt only Muslims. Here also somebody demanded head of cartonist.
Latest is the faith of Indians, Lord Rama the biggest deity, the biggest Imam of our secular India. From centuries Hindus in entire India were told that Lord Rama to release his wife from the captivity of demon King Ravana, supervised a setu which was t hen poosible as it was Ice-age and the water level was much lower than the present one. Vedaniti demanded head of DMK.
Now in all the above three cases, you will find that the faiths are being made target and sentiments were intentionally hurt.
Friend, we must learn to respect each other and should not let politicians of our country and elsewhere divide us on castes and religion. If we punish our ministers for insulting others religion, they will stand on our courtyard like pet dogs. United we excel, divided we fall.
