I know this is only a small part of what you mentioned in this article, where the main point what you are trying to convey is perfectly fine.<br /><br />If you dont mind it would sound good if you would have written, "According to me Lingam is considered to be phallus", because some people who are strong believers in the author and keep on reading his point of views come to an opinion that what ever the author says is true and go upon arguing about it. You say there are many conspiracy theories, in the same way many people had their opinion on what siva lingam is and what its meant(irrespective of it being the true or false). You too had yor opinion, but if it had a sentence saying "according to some theories lingam is considered to be phallus and I strongly believe in it", it would have been better.Daffynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-38419696649907331062010-10-06T15:10:19.076+05:302010-10-06T15:10:19.076+05:30on a lighter note

I'm just goi...I know this is a really old post. I'm just going through your blog in a somewhat-random order. So here's my two cents on this post.<br /><br />I agree with your views on media. I particularly dislike it where they interview a layperson to ask his/her opinion as if he/she is an expert on the subject matter. That annoys me. Just because they are on TV, these people are ready to sound all intellectual with their stupid views without really having given the issue any serious thought.<br /><br />Coming to the topic of not allowing some people (whether it is women/Dalits/transgender(hijras)/people of different religion/etc.) in certain establishments, I think it all depends on whether they are private establishments that pay taxes, government establishments or private establishments that enjoy tax-exempt status or have some sort of tax benefits. If it's third case I think such establishments should treat all Indian citizens equally by law (or follow some related regulations), don't they? <br /><br />*Let me say that I don't know if religious establishments in India are tax-exempt or have a special tax status like in the US. (Didn't bother to look it up.)<br /><br />**I am not unaware of the fact many businesses and other establishments and individuals evade taxes.Changehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11291568318788440530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-69748304792258410252010-08-16T00:39:59.381+05:302010-08-16T00:39:59.381+05:30if a temple in India said, people from certain cas...if a temple in India said, people from certain castes can't enter it. will we say ok, let them pray in other temples?wise donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084116949920234832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-82116941714083265762009-11-18T12:22:11.697+05:302009-11-18T12:22:11.697+05:30Hi Sujai,

Pretty good, to say the least!<br /> "I am free to go wherever I want in this country....I will have to obey the rules they set out."<br />and "I have a choice to enter or not enter."<br />Simply wonderful. Wonderful because most atheists don't seem to show this kind of tolerance and respect for others. Im agnostic myself, and like you, visit temples for other reasons than religion. But I believe that I have no right to break those rules in temples- after all I entered knowing that it had those rules. <br />It is pretty much like not plucking the flowers in some public garden or not touching artifacts in a museum. For some reason most atheists (esply bloggers) seem to think that simply because they don't believe in God they can do anything they like in a temple. To me, that is as bad as the religious guy! And I feel sorry that the cause of rationalism is lost because of such people.<br />Anyhow, enjoyed reading most of your posts! Keep it up! :)Suchithrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03469564593577609479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-34092040842123084322007-07-10T04:40:00.000+05:302007-07-10T04:40:00.000+05:30Sujai, do you have something against women out the...Sujai, do you have something against women out there in the media challenging orthodoxies, systems, stupid religious practices? First Ms. Patkar and women protesting Narmada dam, now this. :) :)<BR/><BR/>Or, should challenging be only left to MF Hussain? ;) (just kidding)<BR/><BR/>I don't really know you, but from the few posts I've read, you come across as liberal/progressive/thoughtful. That's why I'm surprised to see this obvious bias against women in two of your posts. I'd think you would be encouraging them to do more, whether you agree with their POV or not.<BR/><BR/>I'd say anyone (man or woman) who showcases the stupid religious traditions (which you yourself are not a supporter of) is more than welcome. If a light is not shown on such issues, there is no way to bring about a change.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>-AmitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21825668.post-1152603991620524932006-07-11T13:16:00.000+05:302006-07-11T13:16:00.000+05:30Ohh thanks...My first class was over today morning...Ohh thanks...<BR/>My first class was over today morning.
