Bridge is old so the sea level rose , sedimentation etc.Besides even a dredging ship could not dredge the Ram Sethu and was helpless which they had call another ship called the Hanuman to resuce the dredger. So it is not made of sand or coral, but something alot harder like stone. Besides the coincidence of it being located in very place stated in the Ramayana that Lord Ram built Ram Sethu. These facts cannot be deny.

True.

But even then, religious belief of people do NOT need scientific proof. It belongs to a different domain. NEITHER A SECULAR STATE CAN ENCROACH THE SACRED DOMAIN.

THIS UPA IS DOING WORSE. ITS TREATING HINDUS ARE SECOND CLASS CITIZEN, EVEN AFTER THE COUNTRY'S PARTITION BASED ON RELIGION.

IF ANYTHING, TODAY'S UPA HAS PROVED ADVANI'S PSUEDO-SECULARISM.

Indian history's time is calculated from ancient dysasties, kingdoms including that of Rama's.

If you read any upper level books on ancient Indian history, you will see that.

To deny Rama's historical existance is not based on scintific reasons.

Man, its really funny when you direct others to books...('upper' level book?) to know Indian history.

Mankind is just 300,000 years old. But, the dates in Ramayana said as to when Rama lived (not when it was written) is 1.7 million years old. It could have been a jurassic period at the most. And you are talking talking about 'scientific' reasons. The whole world is laughing at this Ram Sethu controversy.
