    India is taking 'holycow' to a whole new level, even killing for it.

    Relax and don't press the panic button. There are serious issues in India right now but calling it Taliban is over-the-top. There are pockets of radicalization, and they have always been there. They are just more emboldened now that they think the government is on their side. One lost...

    American comedian Jeremy McLellan gets abused for calling out cow vigilantes

    I will not even report you because you will get banned soon enough. Seriously, how pathetic is your existence, that you are not even willing to serve out your ban? Most Indian members here have been banned several times. Go play some sports, run 10k, get a girlfriend - in other words get a life.

    [Interpol] Warrant issued for Guo Wengui, Chinese billionaire threatening to expose corruption

    Indian judiciary faces a plethora of problems, but so far its independence has been brought into question only once - during the Emergency imposed by Indira Gandhi. There are, of course, the obvious issues such as incompetent appointments at the lower levels, corruption, inordinate delays, poor...

    So you are back? Gadkari? How many IDs will you create?

    American comedian Jeremy McLellan gets abused for calling out cow vigilantes

    Hahahaha!!! Jeremy's responses are too funny! I wonder how he got hold of so much Hindi? Bhakts are so retarded it is funny in a not-so-funny way. On the one hand, they have some standard tropes - rejection of Macaulay's education reforms, denigration of Western achievements in science, law and...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Several of them are courteous as well. Just that the conversation can descend into acrimony pretty quickly.

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Our principle religious tenets were formed before we had proven basic scientific facts. I use the word "proven" instead of "knew" because vague references which sometimes correlate to actual scientific discovery are discounted. Without following the scientific method of systematic observation...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Spoken like a typical Bhakt. My Papa was a lawyer so I must know the law. And the term is "Advocate", not lawyer. I studied at NLSIU, Bangalore, the best law school in the country, worked at the Supreme Court for two years before moving out of India to complete my Masters in Economics at LSE...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Yes, very relevant points, all of these. Everyone should applaud your brilliant expose. There is no cure for stupid, and I do not intend to find one.

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    The rest of your rubbish is not worthy of a response. However, I will respond to the conflation of Hindutva with Hinduism. The judgment in question does not distinguish between them clearly enough, which is the primary reason why Hindutva goons conflate the term. I have made the same argument as...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Your presumption has a basis. I know, before you got permanently banned i have had this conversation with you. And you think that now with a new ID no one will be able to figure that out. Don't worry, you will get banned again and will get to make the same "gotcha" remarks from another ID...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Your rhetorical demagoguery may work like a charm with the semi-educated mass that forms your party's loyal support base. It just doesn't happen to cut it with anyone else. About the report, without reading it you are in no position to have a debate about constitutional rights vis-a-vis...

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Just as I thought. Religious person who believes in outlandish mumbo-jumbo trying hard to engage with the real world. First get rid of all the religious nonsense clogging your brain, and you may then have some hope. Have a good day.

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    Is that pride or chauvinism? Without going into the factual accuracy of your claim (as you have sufficiently caveated it by the word "remnant"), why exactly should anyone pride themselves on something merely because it is ancient?

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    I have nothing against harmless mumbo-jumbo as long as it does not infringe upon my Constitutional rights. Once it does so, we have a problem.

    It Hurts Me To See Hinduism Going The Way Of Radical Islam

    That is, unfortunately, where the definition of radical Islam begins as well - as a way of life as opposed to a system of personal belief. Once something is defined as a way of life, spillover into the political realm is inevitable and you can say goodbye to the secular identity of India.

    Why young India has stopped looking up to Modi

    Aah... Jobless growth. Well, to be honest, this is one area where the present government is not directly at fault. There is a global process at play here. Either GDP growth is totally de-linked from growth in employment, or increased employment is seen in dead-end sectors with abysmal minimum...

    Why young India has stopped looking up to Modi

    India's so- called demographic dividend is a joke. A sizeable population of youth is good enough to sustain medium -term economic growth at 7-8%. However, the quality of growth will be consumption- oriented because our young population has poor work skills and unless they improve, they cannot...

    Muslims don’t vote for us, but we gave them “proper sanctity” BJP Minister

    And of course, mentioning Godwin's Law in response to a post that does not even mention Hitler/Nazis is such an excellent demonstration of competence.
