  //Dear teynampettai thangarasu and mmc, dont be like the indra pig caught in junk. Get out and talk something that is usefull. What one writes and talk has a background of their life. I feel sorry for you guys. Well I cannot come to you and save you. You have to do it yourself./
  
  
  Well, what mmc and I are doing is to take revenge on hindus for posting abuses against non-hindu religions. These hindu dogs have posted the vilest of slanders against Mother Teresa, called president Kalaam a Ba$tard, called Jesus Christ names that cannot be mentioned here. There are also a few threads in this section abusing muslims right now.
  
  We hate all hindus and hinduism as a result. We post anti hindu statements as just retribition.
  
  What we have posted is not some fictitious slanders against hinduism, but real genuine excerpts from the Ramayana, Mahabharata, the upanishads, the vedas, the Gita, the manu smriti and the puranas. We want to awaken the hindu cult followers as to what a filthy cult they are following.

  "If a man of one birth (Sudra) hurls cruel words at one of the twice-born, his tongue should be cut out, for he was born from the rear-end.
  
  If he mentions their name or caste maliciously, a red-hot iron nail ten-fingerslong should be thrust into his mouth.
  
  If he is so proud as to instruct priests about their duty, the king should have hot oil poured into his mouth and ears."

  Pradheep;
  
  >>Life after life after life we have been conditioned to feel that we are this body, this mind, this ego, this individual. Like Indra we have forgotten our true nature, which is existence, knowledge and absolute bliss. <<
  
  Exactly, this is what I have been trying to tell ppl, but man, it will never sink in.
  
  I am really sorry that I asked you to post here :((

  Dear teynampettai thangarasu & MMC.
  Religious war comes when one says that what they beleive is the real god and rest are satans and in this context they try to convert others.
  
  My dear thangarasu,
  you wrote>>>>>

  what slander did you find. Let me explain my friend one by one. This will help you not only to appreciate other Hindusim but also will help you to understand your religion better than what you know now.

  I said that what I post is NOT slander but genuine. Please try to read properly.

  OK. Explain this:
  
  "If a man of one birth (Sudra) hurls cruel words at one of the twice-born, his tongue should be cut out, for he was born from the rear-end.
  
  If he mentions their name or caste maliciously, a red-hot iron nail ten-fingerslong should be thrust into his mouth.
  
  If he is so proud as to instruct priests about their duty, the king should have hot oil poured into his mouth and ears."

  Dear teynampettai thangarasu
  I want to actually get the original verse of Manusmrti 8:270-272. Give me a few days time.
  Mis-interpretation is always common. Example urid dal in sanskrit is mesha and also goat is also mesha. For fire ceremonies that urid dal is what in inteneded and people interpret it as goat and do animal sacrifice.
  
  About casteism, I am totally against the casteism that is practised. The caste that is mentioned in Gita refers to the stage of your spiritual development. It was based on the knowledge you obtain. Krishna clearly mentions it is not by birth but the virtue of your actions.
  
  Modern casteism is based on money. You travel in a flight and people with more money are greeted with a warm smile, newspaper, water and soft drinks as soon as they enter. Their seats are bigger, more space to keep their legs, more care more attendants etc. You sit just one roaw behind them in economy class, just because you paid less money, you have to wait for a glass of water (even if you ask they say wait till the flight takes off) and then almost after an hour only you are given anything to eat.......who creates this discrimination on basis of money?. This is modern casteism based on money.
  
  The classification was not intended that way but some how the evilness (misusing) got hold off. For good to spread it takes time and effort , but for misuse and evil it needs no time and effort.
  
  So Casteism is not a relgious (caste baased on knwledge is religious) , it is a social evil and has to be abolished
