Temples are all about greed and money not god
by Sincere Citizen on Jan 03, 2008 10:47 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

I dont thinks any gods live in any of these temples or worship places. These things have become a haven for greedy people to make lots of money and for VIP's to show their political clout.

Better people worship the gods in their hearts.

The devotees fail to understand that most of the places of worhsips (of all religions) have now degenerated into money making ventures. It is really a waste of time and money visiting such places. On the top of that these type of incidents also take place!

The primary reason for degeneration is government's involvement in religious affairs.

In AP, we have an Endowments Department, which looks after all temples and also "takes care" of money deposited by devotees.

Endowments Department looks after of Hindu temples, but not Muslim Mosques and Christian Churches.

Accept Muslims, we donot have to take any thing to the masjid to satisfy Allah. thanks allah, everyone is equal in front of allah, In Hinduism every body has to take something to offer to a god, a poor man he cannot satisfy GOD, rich man with black money doing mistiefs on the earth he will be given preference to have a darshan first. Can any body think man has created idol and he is worshipping him by making temples, what is this religion.

Mr.Sultan, if your religion is good for you, practice it. Don't redicule other faiths. I am an atheist and don't have any hesitation in rediculing any faith. Be prepared to accept redicule for your faith also if you redicule others. I have read The Koran and know for sure what it contains!!!!!!!! So don't try to be over-smart.
