Mario,

YENNADA....
I thought tha was the case in the MarThoma churches in Kerala. Our Catholic churches always levelled the praying field and were proud of that accomplishment ! In fact that was the reason many Dalit Christians in Kerala converted to Catholicism. Could you please name the place/parish in Kerala which has this stratification even today ? I am not sure of the neo-Caste System in Kerala - Non-Gulfie, Gulfie, Amrica-returnee....

Best Regards,
Dr. Carmo D'Cruz,
INDIAN Harbour Beach, Florida

Mario responds:

Carmo,

Apparently your research has missed the appalling situation in Kerala where Catholics supposedly from "upper" castes and Catholics descended from Dalits worship in separate Catholic Churches.

I have never heard it get that bad in Goa or anywhere else.

Mario
