~ Morning rain
I have been outraged at what's happening in India ever since I was a kid. I lived in a Muslim dominated area in Bangalore during the late 80's and early 90's and I dont want to delve into the details as to what happened, as I as a Hindu (a majorly minority community in India) am bound to be politically correct no matter what. Or else I risk being branded communal, not by Muslims but our own other politically correct Hindus. This strong selfconsciousness in trying to be Secular or politically correct has been pumped into our blood by generations of worshipping false gods and hiding real history from its inheriters. Today if you read the school history text books, it is too obvious everything is written from the point of not hurting a particular community. But my question is why should one try to be "politically Correct" in righting history when events in history occured when there were no words like "secularism" or a "majority community" or a "minority community" no body was "politically correct" then. There were only agressors and victims. This thought process of being politically correct even if it means selling our country's integrity and security, has entered our genes. It is a chronic (and unfortunately even epidemic) decease that is killing us. I mean my question to all those Secular Hindus is, how can you claim be secular when you are casteist (one more chronic decease), regionist and hardcore linguist (oh for sure and definetly on the rise). If I am wrong on the above, there would'nt have been Dalits, SC's and ST's and reservations would have been phased out gradually. On the cantrary they are on the increase. How can we still keep arguing about Arayans and Dravidians? How can we keep fighting about whose language is superior. How can we not identify with those people living in the remotest places as Assam, Meghalaya, Sikkim. Ok one might argue that the educated Indian are shedding all that. Or are we really? Look at the number of factions we have even among us, a few thousand Immigrants. Kannada Sangha, Tamil Sangha, Bengali's, Punjabi's. Not to forget a subfaction again among the kannadigas, Vokkaligara Sangha and may be there are more. Ok again one might ask what is wrong with them, they reflect diversity. But my fear is our diversity among hindus is more pronounced than the unity itself. When are we going to come forward and say this is a platform for all Hindus (and only Hindus) and not just from north or south. When can there be a common Hindu platform where all castes, creeds, regions and people from all languages can participate freely with common agenda? Yes it looks daunting, but if we put thoughts in that direction, we can definetly come to an acceptable solution. This in my opinion is the first thing we Hindus should tackle. In doing this all Hindus become answerable and responsible. So when there is undivided Hindu vote bank, to whom will our politicians turn during elections. The problem of eternally using Muslims as vote banks and the resulting problem of some Fundamentlist Muslims is solved. Today all the problems are because Muslims are a powerful vote bank. The only way a Hindu can survive in India would be to make history by turning into a strong vote bank or become history in about 3-4 generations.
My thoughts are my own and it is everybody's right to agree or disagree. It is not my intention to hurt anybody's feelings. (Again trying to be Politically correct, even though I hate to. But I think I can cure this desease with everybody's help who thinks on the same lines)

Orginally posted by amitcr India is the only country in the world where Hindus were systematically targeted, raped and murdered for years in Kashmir by the minority community and nothing was done to soothe their wounds.
Quote:
India is the only country in the world where the so called majority have been living as refugees on the outskirts of delhi for over a decade and not a single government minister or official has bothered to go and
visit them. Compare that with Gujarat where in the riots when minority were killed, every minister including sonia gandhi travelled thousands of kms from delhi to gujarat to take stock of the situation.And these guys
didn't have the time to travel a few kms within delhi to visit majority refugees.
Quote:
If this is what majority has to go through in India, I'd rather be a minority.
Quote:
By the way, NONE of the super active human rights organisations who are fighting for justice in gujarat for the minority riot victims deem it fit to fight for justice for the majority refugees from kashmir.
Quote:
There have been instances where these human rights groups have fought against the cops and government because terrorists have not been treated properly and as human beings. Funny isnt it? the people that the terrorists kill have no human rights but the terrorists should be shown respect just because they are minority. is it human rights or minority rights?
Quote:
Musician Nadeem accused to murdering Gulshan Kumar hides in UK claims he is innocent but doesnt want to come to India to prove his innocence because he says he will targeted for being a minority. It's
almost like minority can do what they want and get away with it by playing the same old music of I am being harassed for being a minority.
Quote:
Azharuddin was accused to match fixing and guess whats the first thing he says? I am being harassed for being a minority.
Quote:
Isn't it odd that he didn't say thanx to the Indian system for making him the captain of team India despite him being a minority
Quote:
Few years back in Mumbai, muslim organisations claimed that muslim kids will not sing national anthem in schools and muslims should not be forced to stand when national anthem plays in theatres because it's
against islam!
Quote:
When Bush comes to India minorities protest for what he has done in Iraq (unfair what he did there according to me) and afghanistan (very much fair what he did there).
Quote:
Point is he has not done anything against India.Why are muslims angry about what US is doing in some other country? or is it they are angry because he has done something against a muslim country?Why can't they protest at the treatment given to non-muslims in saudi arabia and countless muslim majority countries?
Quote:
Why is that muslims get outraged over some stupid cartoons and call for beheading and cutting off of hands and blowing up entire countires! but their muslim brothers cutting innocent people's hands and
heads and blowing them off doesn't ignite anger in them? I find it weird that people get outraged over cartoons but not over murders.
Quote:
Why can't the muslims ask themselves one question. Why were cartoons made about their god and not about a christian or hindu god?
Quote:
Why did the cartoonist get the idea that he did about muslims?
Quote:
dont tell me
becasue danes or Europeans don't like muslims. Look at the writing on the wall and stop acting like victims cuz muslims are not victims but aggressors.

A hindu majority nation having a Muslim President and Sikh PM..and we are playing like victims??? looks more like we have been forced to be victims..earlier by better cavalry and unity and later by petty politics...
wait..i am not saying i dont like them being where they are... Just saying how tolerant we are..and how tolerant others are..(guess no eg are needed)
lets get down the basics... What makes one a hindu and another a muslim?
I believe all gods are one..whatever form worshippers do..
can other religions saya that..
werent muslims trying to kill/convert the infidels in the name of allah..and isnt that the source of all troubles...
being ruled by a Minority for several 100 years.... Doesnt do much good for feelings...
Again...You are not at fault, neither am I..It is not Hindu / Muslim..it is some irresponsible fellows on both sides..who dont have enough sense to see the consequences of their actions... and who believe they ARE THE ONLY RIGHT PEOPLE AND THE GREATEST BECAUSE THEIR GOD IS THE TRUE ONE...
so...answer now guys...
(this is just a debate..and my views..nothing else..i am a Hindu and i am tolerant and i believe all gods are one)
