The post appended below betrays a very narrow primitive mindset and a complete
lack of knowledge about human culture. I believe that today better efforts are
being made to educate our children, and provide them with a fact-based
understanding of our ancient history, culture and traditions. The primitive
attitude and ignorance demonstrated in the said post are rapidly becoming
obsolete. Good riddance!
Cheers,
Santosh
