I am shocked, saddened and very bothered by these exchanges between Barad
and Fr Ivo.
***To correct misunderstandings on religion and conversions is not to "stoop
so low".
I cant imagine that whatever religion we are we can stoop so
low.
***You must be used to hear what is happening in India, because religion is
a part of our life and a very sensitive issue.
I think its time to get out and look within our communities to do
something more meaningful to do than to be taking pot shots at each other
in this manner( see exchanges below and previously).
***Do not close your eyes to the good that people are doing with the vision
and strength derived from Religion.
Everyone has a choice in
life today and that matters.
***Today is also conditioned by yesterday. History teaches us a lot. But we
have to interpret it correctly and decide wisely.
What happend in the past is a matter of history
and its pure waste of good energy to be doing this. Lets look for how we
can brighten our lives irrespective of religion.
***People live by their religion. Religion should help us. Atheists and
agnostics have their "religion" and they are guided by it...
Regards.
Fr.Ivo
