Dear Santosh,
What is this nonsense of you not being an atheist and supporting all
beliefs( including atheism). As the leader of the "free" world once said
'you are either with us or against us.....'
If the world follwed yours, Aristo's, George's, RKN's, Cornel's, Gabe and
Elisabeth's dangerous brand of open mindedness it might lead to a collapse
in the world order. We would even have peace!! Imagine that. What would all
the poor workers from Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, Haliburton do
then??
World leaders might start to waste their time studying the intricacies of
societies that are over 5000 yrs old as opposed to their own fledgeling
countries before invading them in the name of liberation. Even worse, they
might start to learn the names of the leaders of their closest allies. In
the worst case scenario they might even learn that Communism is not directly
equivalent to as Noam Chomsky once put it( much to the chagrin of our Kerala
communists), "state sponsored capitalism of the erstwhile USSR).
And Gabe even had the nerve to say the Iraqis fighting in Iraq were not
insurgents and terrorist. Mr. Menezes are you some sort of vegan, hippie,
free love crank?? The Americans have rid the world of the Taliban and
Saddam(thus giving rise to their latest bogey man, Mr. Ahmedinejad). So what
if under Saddam the atrocities and incaceration rates were very similar to
the Saudi and Pakistani regimes( America's biggest alies) as well as
China(favourite trade partner). The Iraqi's have now been liberated and are
living happily under foreign occupation and only 3000 people are being
killed every month in Iraq. Coming from an ex-colony yourself, you should
respect the right of self righteous caucasian's to teach natives and
terrorists on how their socities should evolve. After all who wants to live
in a cosmopolitan multi racial/religious environment when it has been
clearly proved by the many European and American governments that
homogeneity works best. I've heard some loons calling for a woman or black
president. Some even believe that too few Roman Catholics have previously
been president.
I hope none of the above people next come out in support of the multi
culturalism in India's democratic system where we have a Sikh P.M., Italian
leader of the ruling party, Muslim president and the largest opposition
party is a right wing fundamentalist one.
Request responsible netters to please stop preaching peace, open mindedness
and ahimsa as it has been causing much anguish to our goan brethren the
world over.

Dear Sunith,
Thanks for your kind words. Finally, for the record I am not an atheist -
never been one.
