Shampa Sadhya said thank you to usha manohar for his/her reply to the topic A strange case of the church interfering in a personal matter.
Kalyani, in another thread I had mentioned the same thing, the arrogance and the intolerance that I have seen personally while growing u for when CH we gave no one else but the oldest party to blame since they have always divided the society on communal grounds. It is only after son hindu groups began to hit back that they began to tone down.
@ shampa, I have saved the link, shd be working now. I agree that religion can be an interfering force in our lives and this is true of all religions

The Christian boy Benny Thommana is married to Lija Jaysudhan 10 years ago. The couple follow their respective religions. Benny got the letter demanding an explanation from the church in 2016. The marriage was registered under the special marriage act on Feb in 2005. The couple was threatened by the Church. The couple wanted to lead a peaceful life.The threatening of the Church is illegal.

Genes do play a major and vital role in making a person intelligent or average, but it is also equally true that a person who eats the most properly balanced and nutritious food the brain development is more than a person who does not. Also, as is the norm, there are those who are making fun of the statements, but it has been proven that animals killed and eaten involves violence and those who eat such foods more are indeed prone to violence, if not directly violent, they are more aggressive than those who do not.

Link is not working. Well, I have understood the matter and felt irritated. These pastors and religious heads of any religion have nothing more to do than interfering in the lives of the common people.

This is nothing new, pastors of churches in most small towns and even suburbs of cities are known to interfere in the life of their congregation members to a great extent. I once had a friend the pastor of whose church even interfered in marriage decisions of her family and other families. Whats more, she hated that kind of interference and put up an occasional resistance for which she was later punished by making her clean the home of the pastor, clean his utensils, clothes etc. She was living in a virtual hell as her mother and other siblings totally depended on the pastor and let him control the family. Talk about intolerance which is always directed at the Hindus!

I have checked everything and said the same. I did not find this article in member's blog they mentioned in their post which has only 2 posts posted in 2008 but not this one. Besides a post that has already been posted somewhere else could not be reposted here even if the member had written it themselves.

Of all the 99 names, none stands for violence and the first two names denote compassionate and merciful. Allah is both Rehman and Raheem. That's the gist of the speech by Modi

The BJP MLA was wrong and he needs to be punished not only by the state administration but also by his own party or else such incidents will get repeated by reckless politicians.

Did anyone hear Modi's lecture in SUFI meeting yesterday? I think it was one of the best by an India PM on such a complex topic

There are members here, who drag the discussion without knowing the facts. The member is helpless.
