nobody can comment about any religion without reading all the religious books of that religion.By: sudharshan | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 20:03:40 PM Reply | Forward there is not a single line in any hindu religious books that says birth of a girl child is a sin or bad karma.just reading the GITA will solve all the problems of life.first read ur religious book fully and then those of other religions.Then alone u can comment true to ur conscience.if a person does anything other than worshipping god when he/she goes to a religious place,he does a sin.if he is god fearing he wont do that.it is the individual's behavior.there are millons of people from other religions who misbehave in religious places.it doesn't mean that those religions are impractical or lenient.ALL this depends on the way these people r brought up and not on the religion.Also if we r brought up well we wont hurt others by our speech,deed or even thought.If anyone who reads this faces a problem then read the translation of the Gita.And that will show u it is not merely a religious book but a guide to mankind.PEOPLE who hate their religion are atheists and they can be in religion

seminaries are a front for gays2By: n Krishna | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 11:25:49 AM Reply | Forward Homosexuality is not the fault of the gays as they are born that way. The Church doesn't explain what god's plan about gays.. A christian priest has told Sister Jesme that 5% of people are born with homosexual orientation and most of these Christian gays are attracted to monasteries. Jesme's autobiography was a major embarrassment to the Church when it hit the stands in February 2009. She started working on the book after she took a six-month sabbatical from her vocation as the principal of St Mary's College, Thrissur,Kerala. With four more years of service remaining, she quit the college and the Congregation of Mother Carmelite in August 2008. The chuch wanted to brand her as mentally ill. The Catholic Bishops' Conference of India has vehemently opposed the Delhi High Court's decision to do away with section 377 of the IPC, which penalises homosexuality. The bishops think homosexuality would weaken family values.bit.ly/8uPq2

Seminaries are front for homos 1By: n Krishna | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 11:24:29 AM Reply | Forward Legalise gay sex to clean up monasteries, says former nun Sister Jesme who wrote the book ‘Amen’. Christisn institutions of celibacy are havens for gays. Sr Jesme, exposed the underbelly of the convents and other church institutions in her autobiography, Amen, says, legalisation of homosexuality is a must. In her autobiography, Amen, Jesme tells her own experience with a lesbian nun, who forcibly slept with her in convent. The Christian institutions built on celibacy are full of homosexuals, as per the book. Church and Christianity must be the creation of homosexuals to prevent them from being branded as eunuchs by the society. The church is the den of homosexuals and celibacy of the priests and nuns could be cover for them to live together in the seminaries and monastries. Science says that there Jesus was created in AD 325. There were no christians till 4th century. Christianity appears to have created by gays, as many of the popes were gays and one pope even gave birth to a child

Saifuddin, the son of IblisBy: Sumangal Pande | Monday , 6 Jul '09 18:25:49 PM Reply | Forward UK Hindu Council is working for UK gays, it seems. Good for them. May be bad, whatever, who cares? Just like this Saifuddin guy is riddled with holes in his head, they too, seem to be ignorant about what is at stake. As for Saifuddin, let me tell him this : Go back in your ancestry, you will find horrible things happened to your people somewhere along the line, the poison of which has soiled your soul (I presume you have one, do not know what your belief allows you to have and not). Your great grandfathers were tortured or killed, grandmothers raped by the so called ganims and then forced in to Islam. Invariably so is the story of spread of Islam, a social system created by the Prophet(kudos to him) for barbarians of Arabia.Our peers of the time lacked foresight to reconvert after the onslaught was over and you unfortunately remained in your present hung status. So, stop worrying/criticising Hindus per se, you have a lot as skeletons in your own closet. FYI: We strongly condemn gayism.

what?By: sid | Monday , 6 Jul '09 7:27:40 AM Reply | Forward I think darvan is totally mistaken, quoting to the previous post. There are enough evidences that animals engage in same sex relationships as well. There is nothing to stoop so low, remember we are a part of the animal kingdom too.Get your facts right!!This is to do with genes, nothing to do with religion. Even a devout muslim, hindu or christian could be gay. u and i can't control that!!!!!!

Theory of inseminationBy: VK Mahanti | Monday , 6 Jul '09 4:16:44 AM Reply | Forward This article and the belief system of ancient texts is full of it. In a society cray for male children in a Hindu society, if the theory of insemination is true that those having intercourse during even dates would produce a male child, then all Indians would be male because Hindu Indians discriminate "girl-children." For them its bad karma. (I dont believe in karma or insemination on even or odd dates to produce boys or girl babies). The idea of fire, water, earth concept in conception is simply so absurd. There is no place for God (God of the Bible) or procreation within marriage boundaries in this article and the scientific proof that Male and Female chromosomes in that order are responsible for birthing a male or female child.

Hinduism????By: shyam | Monday , 6 Jul '09 0:16:08 AM Reply | Forward I read a lot of comments by different people about Hinduism lately and wonder if any of these people have ever read any of the religious books and if they have, did they understand anything written in them. Some followers of different religion have written ugly remarks about Hindus and Hinduism and I fail to understand how can anyone who is a believer spit so much of vemon.Every issue becomes an issue for criticising the other religion.My humble request to everyone is to please follow whatever religion you practice and try to improve yourself as a human being and don't talk about subjects that you don't understand. Hinduism is like a sea and grew with the contributions of thousands of Rishis or prophets and it is very stupid of anyone to pass a comment as to what is allowed and not allowed in Hinduism.

Hinduism does not condemn gay people: UK Hindu CouncilBy: Jalesh Dikshit | Sunday , 5 Jul '09 22:28:26 PM Reply | Forward The name of the movie is 'Johny Mnemonic'. How the probe goes at the back of head when the Employmentist society wants to create new industry and needs more memory wothout worrying about change in behaviour of that human. The unoptimized society wants to create more useless things have more cars instead of bus, thus creating more strange humans. Free food and free shelter all over the earth, will stop employmentism and probably the absurdity documenting what happened to those lookalike victims...

Religeons and Gay rightsBy: darvan | Sunday , 5 Jul '09 16:19:14 PM Reply | Forward Christianity does abhors same sex relationships.That does not mean 'Gays' are hated. The practice is abhorrant, for even the animals dont indulge in it! So why do the humans stoop so low. Having been placed at the top of the picking order! Defies logic. Moreover we are assuming this is an adult privilege,what about the childrens rights? They are unable to gauge gender nuances until they have achieved puberty. To foist adult values on children is a gross violation of their rights
