Dear Mario and Cornel,
I would just like to add a few more perspectives of my
own on this subject. Shashi Tharoor in his book From
Midnight to the Millennium, has a wonderful chapter on
minorities in India.
One of the points he make and perhaps I agree with, is
that Hinduism is an all-embracing

Roland Francis captured the essense of the Goan
society in Dhobitalao. Notwithstanding his error in

this little hotel that is no more.
My favourite dish here was Potato Chop. It was
delicious. The very thought of it brought me to this
restaurant
Dear Roland
Your post on Dhobitalao was well written.
For most Goans who came to Bombay, Dhobitalo was the first point of
entry, mainly cause of the Goa buses and the trains at VT.
Although I was in Bandra, I used to visit my aunt in Marine Lines..that is
Dhobitalao. I think the restaurant is
Hi Santosh,
We have resolved the semantics about Buddhism and Jainism- finally! And thanks
for telling us that atheism covers a wide range from being a religion to a
belief in nothing. As Mario said, we do not really know the exact situation

That made very intresting reading. It does bring back
memories of the years that I too spent in my beloved
Goa. (even though the years I stayed in Goa were not
that many)- Thank you for reminding us what a haven we
have in Goa.
God Bless!

Your point is valid, Eugene. But...
While we spend time lamenting the 'glorious' lost past, I think we
might be overlooking the new options coming up today. Goan achievers
across the globe (and lesser so, back home). New institutions. New
unique ventures. Take a look at Eddie Fernandes' GoanVoice
Hi Gilbert
I am at a total loss to understand why a person's faith or otherwise should
matter to anyone, and especially, so much to you. Does it matter at all if
one is a Catholic, Muslim, Hindu, agnostic, humanist, atheist or whatever as
long as they live moral lives in the interests of

Fellow netters should read this article I read years ago in the Financial

Basically it explains the reason for why the government data shows Bihar and

Other initiatives could help. By lamenting about what we've lost, we

quite a few. FN

Sorry to say this. But I think all your responses in
any thread on this and other issues stem from an
inattention to or lack of understanding of the

Aristo is probably refering to the popular books A brief history of time
