Dear goankars, As per e-mails below on the topic "Religion and Science": -
Please remember that in India, 60% of families, earn a total wage of approximately Rs. 2,000/- per month. Hence, the majority of Indians, when they fall sick, cannot afford expensive, allopathic drugs and therefore, have to take homeopathic, ayurvedic, herbal, etc. medicine which is less expensive. Yes, when all else fails, we pray to God for a miracle cure, and God always hears our prayers and cures us. Today any branch of medicine is encouraged to cure, "mind, body, soul". We Indians are truly lucky and blessed, because we have friends and relatives of different religious beliefs who will pray for our good health, when we fall sick. A Catholic priest once said to me "God looks after India", otherwise, how can you explain how most of our neighbouring countries are having major problems, while India, with different states, different religions, different languages etc. are still "One India"? ============================================= >From: "J.
