My reply is inserted here below: below the responses Fr. Ivo writes: ***As far as I know, not only in Goa, but also in India, Catholic schools and colleges are preferred, although I cannot give you a scientific statistics here. You can ask the ministers and intellectuals where they did their studies. There is no doubt about the values imparted. That is precisely the reason why the Catholic schools and colleges are preferred. My response: I need not ask any minister for clarification or for statistics. You can as well check on for yourself by physically going round Margao or for that matter in entire Goa to get convinced to what I had written. I may agree with your statement which was true during British / Portuguese rule..not these days in free India. **Thank you for your invitation. You would do a better job in such a political environment. My response: I don't mix religion with science or politics with science therefore I just cannot fit into today's politics which is being propagated by you as science with your profound logical thinking. ***This is neither science, nor religion... Who has given you this task on this Forum? My response: who has given me this task in this forum is irrelevant but you being patron of propagating religion to be science please answer my questions convincingly without using twisted language. If not.... Best regards, Dr. U. G. Barad
