Ummm not really... You can always hang in there :-

1.) To get free food ,
2.) To meet prospective in laws ("ahh is ghor paapi desh mein bhi aaker ladka/munda mandir aata hai" ) :D or
3.) To meet the girl , with her parents... (the best case scenario) :D
4.) Pass on the tips to the next batch of desi munda's .....

Of 'cos this assumes that you are a FOB and not a CBCD ;)

Lets then stop all entertainment centres till the misery in the world ends.

Everything which is related to entertainment like Parks,TV,Internet,Cable TV, cinemas, bar, strip joints, Casinos,amusement parks etc and spend all that money in removing misery in the world.

Nope! These, as you say, provide "entertainment" for EVERYONE, and entertainment has value. OTOH, temples and the like, do not serve that purpose, unless of course if you want to say that mandirs etc are places for entertainment?? They are built as places of worship, an act that is unnecessary in the first place, and even if not, it is somehting that can be performed far less ostentatiously.
