Dear Gilbert:
Before being a member of Goanet I was under the
impression that formal education encourages people to
be more liberal
But the archives, exchanges on goanet and thru mails
received in private I am convinced that inspite of
being educated many posters here:
1. deliberately confuse other peoples gender (possibly
to make up for lack of any other argument or merely
for cheap humor)
2. indulge in gratutious name calling and verbal
intimidation (ironically in support of tolerance)
3.Grossly misrepresent facts and statements of other
people whose views they dont agree with (includes
doctors,journalists, sundry financial gurus,etc)
4. Condone pedophilia, and religious persecution of
indigenous population (because it seems our ancestors
were uncivilised pagans worshipping snakes and stones
and also because that practice is the root cause why
India is backward)
5.Spread outright falsehoods and absurd theories
related but not limited to tourism in Goa, origins of
fundamentalism
I hope more people can elaborate on thse points
Regards
Bhandare
