Hinduism, unlike Islam and Christianity, is not an expansionist or proselytizing religion. You can only be a Hindu by birth, not by conversions. Then why is it that India or any other country should be at risk from increased Hindu awareness.
And please don't use deliberately mischievous words...
You are right in a way.
South Indians are not "protective" about Hinduism in the same way that Hindus in UP / Bihar/ MP are. This is a bit paradoxical because the Public face of Hinduism was almost extinguished in the North while in the South, many temple remained preserved. Maybe, South...
You are mistakenly transposing Characteristics of Islam to Eastern religions. Hinduism is neither restrictive, nor does it have expansionist political aims. However, it needs strengthening r as a bulwark against hostile religions.
Why do you think India is still majority Hindu, while most of...
Yes I realize that danger. A public forum is perhaps not an adequate platform for serious discussions.
I know 200 years feels awfully long for a young person, but its the blink of an eye for an old nation. Western countries have different time standards. Old countries like India, and China must...
When identity politics is the norm in most countries, shunning it by an ostrich like posture will only weaken India. Aggressive alien faiths can only be defeated by strengthening native faiths, not by secularizing the polity.
In face of hostile religions, a secular landscape only makes the...
Only a few misguided youngsters in Srinagar want freedom. That's less than all those wanting freedom in Baluchistan.....
So why don't you show us the way by freeing Baluchistan first.....??
Precisely the attitude which has forced India to retaliate tit for tat. And unlike India, Pak neither has strategic depth, nor a critical mass to survive insurgency.
Of course, being Muslims, you can keep fighting from the Islamic Nation of Punjab.
Typical Bengali thinking............
Disregard the positives as being yours by right....then obsess over the few negatives till it completely permeates your body and takes over your mindspace.
Indo-BD relations are mostly positive with a few dark spots...why just obsess over the bad parts?
CPI (M) should be the first party to be banned.
The damage wrought upon Indian culture and ethos by an alien, materialist paradigm is incalculable. Communists are also guilty of distorting history in order to present Indian civilization in a poor light.
RSS/ BJP are just a reaction to...
Which is why India needs to prepare an adequate deterrence.
China, for all its pretensions of efficiency, and development, remains an uncivilized, barbaric place which is a danger to the entire world. The previous conduct of the country amply proves that Chinese opinion making tends to be...
Thats because of our distorted history, which severely de-emphasizes Britain's role in impoverization of India.
If you know the real facts, you will hate them seriously.
Wonder who fought...Can't recall a single freedom fighter from your lot.
General impression is that the British rewarded Muslim league for being lackeys. Lest it come out, the Churchill-Jinnah papers are still kept classified in British archives.
Which just means that you have no "solutions" for Kashmir apart from the Heads I win...tails you lose ...proposal of appropriating the entire state and leaving nothing for India apart from the warm glow of having done the "right moral thing":pissed:
That of course, from India's standpoint, is...
Why do gods have to be anthropomorphic? Being a Hindu, are you subscribing to the exploitative notion that God made humans in his own image and preferentially endowed him to exploit "lesser" beings.
I m sorry, but don't you think that a Hindu should have at least a basic grasp of the...
