what is a supreme court?By: august | Tuesday , 21 Jul '09 8:25:37 AM Reply | Forward A law interpretation body that rules its views in light of the prior judgements on a given dispute. Therefore to interfere with ,the Government of India in penal codes' is a sedition,for which the supreme court today stands condemned. Asking the Govt. to clarify its codes,is inexcusable and a national disgrace. Govt. is directed by the Parliament only,not the supreme court. No wonder there is no reply from Govt. of India. A disdain would alone see this 'Gay Agitation" die a natural death.

Rain MenaceBy: Vishal Iyer | Saturday , 11 Jul '09 13:27:05 PM Reply | Forward The rains have brought a real menace in the Ahmedabad. I live in the city's outskirt Bopal Area.

Restrictions on Co-ed, Samskaras from BharatBy: BB | Friday , 10 Jul '09 12:21:14 PM Reply | Forward Co-Ed for Girls and Boys is ok till they are small, upto 8 years. After that the girls and boys are taught separately. If it is not possible to shift them to separate buildings they sit separately and have their hostels separate. We wanted the girls to join the mainstream and get educated so that they dont remain backward. An educated mother is more important for the nation. Sex is wrong before marriage and a sin. If we deviate from that then we see that particular society investing more in sex education.Good business for the contraceptive market and abortion clinics. We have to separate the sexes from co-habiting together. Its basic human decency. To build a strong family value system based on two individuals with strong moral character. Where there is lack of divinity you will see worse sexual behaviour as in the America today. Too much freedom is also not ok. Parents must correct and spank their kids when they go wrong. AmericanIndian kids call cops when they are scolded, strange!!!

This is mainly due moral deterioration of some people.B S GANESH, BANGALORE

Health priorities for the nationBy: Dr Aravind Ganesha | Friday , 10 Jul '09 7:35:48 AM Reply | Forward I think , as a nation if we prioritize our health issues , I dont't think debating about gay issues will come in the first 1000 priorties of the nation. when people are dying of TB, malnutrition, malaria etc etc. To nationally debate about gay right issues is deplorable.I am sure media has taken up this issue from western media as it is the priority for them as they dont have any other basic health issues to discuss. It is not for india to nationally debate. Without debate gay issues has to be solved to save energy and time for our lazy politicians and utilize their time for better health issues. Let us talk,debate and solve important health issues of common citizens of the country first and then lesser important issues.

A Moral CorruptionBy: Satheesan Kochicheril | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 21:31:45 PM Reply | Forward The System that gave us life has a moral code. All human societies should base their laws on the basis of its moral codes. The violation of natural law cannot be considered a sign human advancementIn the West same sex relationship is becoming prevalent due to the collapse of the family system. In some places the sexual practice start at a tender age, sexual fidelity in married life has disappeared. Two years back the women students of a University demonstrated against the rising cost of anti-pregnancy devices. There students of opposite sex stay together and as a past-time indulgence in sex is what they can do easily. The demonstrators might have been urging for govt. subsidy, but then the economic melt down took place. Sensible people refuse to get associated with such voluptuous bodies, to them same sex relationship seems meaningful. So, what there happens is the reaction of culture.

Hmmmm.....By: Indian American | Friday , 10 Jul '09 9:14:09 AM Reply | Forward Are you for real? Looks like you are a poster boy for the Taliban. Don't you realize that the restrictions on boys and girls intermingling is due to Islamic influence over the last 1000 years. Do you really want to be a mouthpiece for the Darul Uloom Deoband? Take a look at the Khajuraho monuments or read a good history book to understand what India was really like before the poison of islam spread.

To PurohitBy: Krupa | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 20:21:51 PM Reply | Forward Amit Purohit you really don't have to use a pseudonym to exhibit your natural tendency. We know the only thing that you people are good at it throwing around your abuses at the slightest of pretext. Since you have asked me let me answer your question. I am born as a human being with a head on my shoulder and with a capability to think. We human beings breed among ourselves only. I have no desire to breed with a miserable sub-human whom even evolution also did not touch. Please enjoy all you "heavenly" pleasure along with your ilks. We humans do not find wallowing in our own filth as enjoyable :)

Great move by IndiaBy: pooja | Thursday , 9 Jul '09 20:09:00 PM Reply | Forward i think the high court is right in legalizing gay sex, who the hell are we to put restrictions on what is acceptable. if you look closely at some of the depictions in various temples they do not only show man-woman copulation but also same sex. So technically morally it isn't wrong. i think by legalizing it we're leaving a great legacy, and children will know that they are accepted and loved irrespective to their sexual orientation, unless you want your child persecuted because he is different or want him to continuously seek therapy because he isn't accepted by his family first.. then of course don't legalize it.
