I'm not sure if Averthan's article appeared on a Goan newspaper or not, but if 
it did, it is irresponsible of them to carry it and it is irresponsible of 
Averthan to write it. In a country like India, that must desperately break free 
from the shackles of all that is illogical and embrace rationality and 
modernity in haste, we cannot have views that are arcane and totally abusive 
towards another human being, being bandied about as the truth. We have to 
constantly work towards the understanding and tolerance of individual human 
difference, and to continually undermine them is to do our society a grave 
danger.
