 Gabechem Chaldean caldinha 2

 Gaben boroilem The deities mentioned are B.V.M and J.C. and all those
 cherubic angels, as well as  Arch angels, Michael the warrior and Gabriel
 the messenger.

 Gabebab..do correct me if I am wrong, but the word deity stands for
 God . So I do not know how a Michael and a Gabriel (even a Menezes) can
be
 a deity?


RESPONSE: When this thread was started, it was mentioned that deities were
depicted in the Indian form. I understood, as I am sure the writer meant
'deities' in a broad sense.
If not it would have been simple to just say 'God'. Again we shall be
digressing and the thread will keep evolving, as it does on Goanet.  In the
beginning, Angels were considered almost on par ? This is a religious and
theological discussion ani I am not in the least bit qualified to venture
into this.

 I respectfully forward :-

Definitions of deity on the Web:

  any supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or
some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force

As far as Asian features vs Western features - there is such a mixup in Asia 
with ALL kinds of people donating genetic material during their travels et 
al. ...that it would be quite a problem to exclude any particular racial 
genotype from the Asian pool.

For instance - would a Kashmiri or a Chitpavani have features which are any 
different from the features one sees of artistic impressions of Jesus or 
Mary? Aren't they Asians?..at least ..for the past...many many 
years?

If so.why do we have these racial hangups? Inspite of being the 
originators of Varna.

This Western, Asian, European, Eastern, Paki,  Gorri, Kali, white, black 
stuff . is pitiful.  Perhaps the 'slip' of our true complexes and 
prejudice is showing.

Have a good weekend

Depends on which section of the Chaldeans one is referring to. Could be
darker shade, if pertaining to the keralites and tamil peoples. Quite dark
brown Arabic/Kurdish looking people originating from Iraq. We have quite a
few of them here in North London, They do tasty grills, i.e. shish kebabs,
koftes and lamb chops and drink sweet tea all day long, while smoking the
hookah!

Now, I am not about to antagonize anyone by claiming that I have seen J.C. -
When people make such claims they are termed as halucinating and everyone 
including learned Doctors will be sceptical and demand proof and claim there 
is no such thing a God. We are here today gone tomorrow and the stars are 
another matter.

Have a nice weekend, I envy you and our Goa people lounging in the Sun.

cheers,

Gabe Menezes.
