Allowing child molesters in church?

Talk about biological warfare, and Tony Blair has the nerve to say that Iraqis are inhuman because they posses biological and chemical weapons.

Namaste Niranjan,

Are you a member of some group, or is this the standard teaching in school today....hate the britisher and scorn him on threads regarding child molestors in church.

Is there a method, a plan, are you instilling peace in the world by uniting all the colonies against the evil empire?

Is there a sign up sheet?

Well, if you remove your rose-tinted glasses and check my posts to that Tao dude, you can see that he started it first and I only replied back.

And I have also stated that I am protesting against British imperialism and not the british people.

To tell the truth, I did not think about this. Thanks for the idea.

Wow I've been busy for a couple of days and I come back to find we are now hating the British, the Germans and the Muslims. I am British, born & raised in Germany and I am now a Muslim - not a lot of hope for me then.

Hi Q

I was telling my Mum our conversation about what constitues a child molester and she emailed me about a young couple in the next village to her. The boy is 16 and his girlfriend 15.5 yrs. Her Mum found out they had done the dirty deed and had the boy arrested. He tried to hang himself and is still in a coma, his father lost the plot and drove his truck through the house of the girls mother and is now awaiting a trial date. I think this shows the other side of the story and does beg the question where do we draw the line.

For reasons already stated. If you had no interest in reading the first time, there is no sense in me repeating myself.

Oh, surely there were some little fiascoes over the course of what?, some 3 or 4 thousand years. Just off the top of my head it seems the bulk of Buddhism was forcibly chased out of India into Eastern Asia. What other internal struggles took place I can only guess. Let's see, how closely associated is the island of Ceylon...Myanmar, if I recall correctly. Seems to me a rather long standing civil war there, if I recall between the Hindu population and another? Did India have colonial ambitions?, not in the sense we think of Europeans, I can grant you that. But the implication is that India has never had tribes fight with, overthrow, ostracize, run amok over, banish, obliterate, etc., etc., etc, each other. A claim I find all too difficult to believe, simply by virtue of human nature. If each tribe is considered a nation, then what we call India today was composed of many tiny nations just prior to the European presence. Those tiny tribal nations did never war with each other?

Personally, I am pleased to have a Hindu perspective on the boards, it has been a long time coming. However, I anticipated something quite different than what I see. Yet, you say elsewhere that you speak for the majority viewpoint? That would be sad indeed. Particularly if Hinduism is so tolerant of other faiths, it is too bad Hinduism seems to not be particularly tolerant of other peoples...if I am to believe what I am seeing.

You carry the grudges of a victim attitude. Particularly the grudges of the past, of which you most likely did not feel directly yourself. Unless it was in a past life? Even if you do exceed 50 years of age, if one cannot let bygones be bygones, then one carries the burdens of the victim. This is a burden one chooses to carry, or to put aside. You seem to enjoy bearing a burden that perhaps your grandparents or maybe even parents bore. That is your choice. As long as you bear that burden, you are not free in the spirit, you cannot be. You tie yourself. Who am I to deny you interesting women? Nobody. When it comes to myself however, I will challenge the notion that I am responsible to carry the sins of my predecessors, real or imagined. Further, I refuse to burden myself with the victim attitude.

I find one has two choices in life...wallow in one's own filth...or get up and shake off the dust and do something constructive with one's life. Any other choices ultimately come back to these two. A victim chooses to wallow. I choose to be constructive. You?

Frankly, I had hoped for some genuinely constructive Hindu input, it is sorely needed here. What we can do without, is yet another coming in with a chip on their shoulder and an arrogant attitude of defiance. Would you care to join us as friends...or do you prefer to come in with guns ablazin' making damn sure to set everybody straight? Seems we have had more than our fair share of zealots and self-righteous fundamentalists lately. I sincerely hope you are not another.

Salaam, MW.I know you were talking to Q, but I hope no one minds if I comment. I'm glad this aspect was introduced. I have been thinking of saying something along these lines because I know a young man who is now in his thirties, and because of a very similar situation that happened in his teens, he is a branded man. The girl who is a woman now has admitted in private that everything was consensual (they didn't even do everything--but they did get caught), but she won't say so in public because she fears the wrath of her parents and the law. It is so sad. But you know what this young man says? He says that he'd still rather have to live with this stigma than for the law to become so relaxed that the people who really do this slip through the system any more than they already do. I don't know what to think about that, except to say he is remarkable.

I often wonder why the laws we have sometimes don't make much sense. We have to protect the children--that's for sure. But my heart goes out to those who get caught in the middle of mob mentality, too.

Good point to bring up. Thank you.

InPeace,
InLove

And I have repeated my reasons as well. The British and the westerners should apologize for the atrocities they committed in the name of cut-throat imperialism in the asian, african and other continents.

Nope.

Buddhism was already in eastern asia , and it was spread over there by the Indians themselves. Buddhism was mainly destroyed by the Islamic invasion of India and Afghanistan. Even then there are still millions of Buddhists and monasteries in India.

In Ceylon , the struggle is between the tamils, which are made of all religions, and the sinhalese. Religion has nothing to do with this. And it is a fight by the tamils for rights and self-determination in sri lanka, because they were persecuted by the sinhalese.

And that is very stupid which shows that you are an ignoramus in terms of history. I had mentioned this in an another thread. Indians indeed had fought with the greeks under Alexander, the huns, the arabs, the scythians, the pathans, the uzbeks, the turks, the iranians, the portuguese, the french, the dutch, the british, the pakistanis, the chinese to the modern era. And we defeated and repulsed all of them. We indeed had fights with many nations of the earth, and we thrashed them all and are still standing.

Well, you have to understand that India is no ordinary land. This is the land of the rishis, krishna, buddha, mahavira and other enlightened masters. It should not be compared to other lands, because not every land can boast of a Buddha or a Krishna .

Not tribes but kingdoms, with their own armed forces, administration and ruler. There was empires in India as well under chandragupta maurya, samudragupta, ashoka ( who is considered by all scholars to be the greatest emperor who ever lived) , vikramaditya, akbar, krishnadeva raya ,ranjit singh and others. They did war with each other at times, but had not attacked civilians , which is strictly forbidden by the scriptures, and had never destroyed the economy too in the process , but integrated it into their kingdom. And all these kingdoms followed the hindu culture and religion.

And they never attacked or invaded any other nation , even though they were perfectly capable of doing so.

Well, no one anticipated India to thrash the Britishers . So anything can happen.

Well , we accept other faiths, and I have said this many times, but we don't accept injustice. And what has faith to do with this topic of British imperialism. Are you saying that british imperialism is a religion as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh please, do tell...just what exactly is it "you guys" have done in america? Specifically, what specific sins of my specific fathers do you feel I am specifically guilty of?

Fair warning, this is a trick question. I may not be what you think. This exercise should go far in exposing your prejudices.

Yes what a remarkable young man and an example to us all. Sorry but it doesn't say much for the young womans self respect if she will allow this man to suffer for the rest of his life, some people have no shame.

Perhaps it is time the law considered an 'acceptable' age difference as a defence? Of course the obvious answer is to teach our children to wait, then we are not faced with these difficulties.

Well, here goes.

What do you think about the black slaves that were in America, who were humiliated, tortured, slaughtered and stripped of their dignity and self-respect, their women raped and abused. I wish to say I have read the book Roots.

And I know as well that blacks were lynched in the 20 th century as well, humiliated and oppressed, till Martin Luther King, who was a follower of Gandhi, created the civil disobedience movement and demanded civil rights for the blacks. And if it were not for King, blacks still would have been lynched in America.

And I know for a fact that the noble Colin Powell, abandoned his plans for presidency after getting a lot of hate mail.

Blacks are still impoverished , and in a bad shape in America.

And I know that the native American Indians are still oppressed in America, and it is a fact that one in every three Indian women are raped in America, at the present moment.

And I know as well how the american indians were slaughtered, raped , driven off their lands, stripped off their wealth and resources, humiliated and oppressed in their own land. Much of their population was exterminated, and their culture and heritage destroyed.

And as a result of these , the present Indians are suffering from physical and mental illnesses and social issues and seem psychologically battered.

Kindest Regards, niranjan.

You make this too easy.

What do you think about the black slaves that were in America, who were humiliated, tortured, slaughtered and stripped of their dignity and self-respect, their women raped and abused. I wish to say I have read the book Roots.

I see, so you read one book, or maybe even watched the movie like I did as a kid, and that makes you an expert on the subject. If that's the case, I'm already expert on East Indian history before I started today, because I read Sambo and Jungle Book as a kid. G-d knows I read enough Rudyard Kipling. Ah, Charge of the Light Brigade, and all that! At least I am honest enough with myself (and by extension others) to know that I do not know. It seems you have not made that intellectual leap yet.

And I know as well that blacks were lynched in the 20 th century as well, humiliated and oppressed, till Martin Luther King, who was a follower of Gandhi, created the civil disobedience movement and demanded civil rights for the blacks. And if it were not for King, blacks still would have been lynched in America.

Don't know how to put this in terms you are going to fully understand, but this is so full of inconsistency and inaccuracy that it would be funny if the subject were not so serious. Blacks are not the only people ever lynched in this country, even in the 20th century. Seems strange to me you didn't mention the plight of the Mexicans in the Southwestern US, or the Chinese coolies, then the 2nd generation Japanese interred during WWII, then the Vietnamese immigrants and the struggles they went through. Or the Irish or the Italians or the Poles or the Greeks or the Armenians, etc., etc., etc. in their turn. Do you think no whites were ever lynched? By other whites? Do you honestly think no blacks ever murdered other blacks? Do you honestly think no Hispanics ever murdered other Hispanics? You obviously know nothing about America. You obviously prejudicially think the only race capable of crime is fair skinned Caucasians. How many whites are victims of random drive by shootings perpetrated by Blacks or Hispanics?

Of course, you also fail to mention the successes either. How many motels and convenience stores in America are owned by East Indians? How many East Indians are physicians in the US, educated here and decided to stick around because the money and lifestyle were so much better than back home IN INDIA? How many American jobs are exported over to India because scab Indian workers are willing to work for pennies on the dollar?

How many other immigrants migrate here specifically to find a better life? People from around the world! Including my wife!

How many Blacks live a very comfortable lifestyle in the US, certainly living much better than I. Look at the number of professional athletes commanding millions of dollars a year in salary, and what percentage are Black? (Well over 50%) How many Blacks with college degrees are physicians, lawyers, accountants and other respectable professions? *How many Black people are politicians in India???* There's sure a lot of them here! How about Orientals in this nation, or Jews, or Hispanics (now the majority ethnic "race" here, to be replaced by Orientals in about 30 years! Whites are a minority here! But you knew that, of course. ) Try again dude.

Dude, you're living so far in the past you cannot see the reality in front of you, because you prefer your defiant blindness to truth. That truth is this: people have done rotten things to other people for as long as people have existed. That is why we have religion, to try to stop a lot of the rotten things we do to each other.

And I know for a fact that the noble Colin Powell, abandoned his plans for presidency after getting a lot of hate mail.

Opinion is not fact.

Blacks are still impoverished , and in a bad shape in America.

Yeah, so? Whites are impoverished too. Native Americans are impoverished too. Vietnamese are impoverished too. I know, because I am impoverished too. But I REFUSE to be a victim!!!

And I know that the native American Indians are still oppressed in America,

Only if they want to be.

and it is a fact that one in every three Indian women are raped in America, at the present moment.

Opinions are not facts.

And I know as well how the american indians were slaughtered, raped , driven off their lands, stripped off their wealth and resources, humiliated and oppressed in their own land. Much of their population was exterminated, and their culture and heritage destroyed.

And as a result of these , the present Indians are suffering from physical and mental illnesses and social issues and seem psychologically battered.

You seem to know an awful lot for somebody who hasn't got a clue. I wouldn't dare to tell you what your life is like, but you dare tell me what mine is like? But you are fighting injustice! Horse hockey! You cannot fight injustice with injustice. You are the one trying to claim the righteousness of Gandhi. Gandhi would be appalled at your application of his teachings! *Your prejudices are the very essence of injustice!!!*

According to you, at present I am suffering from physical and mental illnesses and social issues and even seem psychologically battered! Goodness, I don't think so…unless one cared to count the present conversation, considering the prejudicial bigot I am currently dealing with. But my beloved government and nation have not done these things to me, and I would not allow them to if they tried. Kinda shoots your theory to hell.

You see, my daddy's daddy's daddy's daddy is Cherokee…that's Native American to you. Further, the balance of my heritage is English and Irish, so dirt poor none of them could afford a plow or a pot to piss in, let alone something like a slave. So, to your original point, shove it up your backside, I will not be held accountable for sins YOU IMAGINE, just because your bigoted self says I should. Let alone should I carry the sins my fathers did commit! (If so, then I should start stealing horses and women. If I'm gonna get the blame, I might as well commit the crime!)

We can bring back war parties and scalping!!! WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO

Oh, did I happen to mention, my stepfather whom I dearly love and sorely miss, is Mexican? Did I happen to mention my new bride is Chinese, whom I met in Beijing, and dearly love with all of my being?

Stick that in your peace pipe and smoke it,

dude.

And THAT, is a fact.

*To everybody else, I apologize for getting a bit off topic.*

Oh, I have read a lot. We have to study about Cassius Clay( Mohammad Ali ) in school, and how he threw away the olympic gold medal he won in a river, after he was abused and humiliated by white racists , when he returned back. And I also know of how a white christian priest asked God to forgive Cassius Clays " black soul " . I guess this is why Cassius Clay became Mohammad Ali.

Well, I do know that thousands of blacks were lynched , on the sole basis that their skin was black and not created white by God , like the whites.And because of their colour, which they could do nothing about, they were humiliated and cruelly oppressed.

Swami Vivekananda, was invited to many cities for giving lectures. And in these cities, when he checked into hotels, he was refused a room on the grounds that he was a black and a negro. Vivekananda didn't say a word and left all such hotels.

When his white disciples asked their master to identify himself as an Indian and not as a negro, Vivekananda rubbished it and said, " What , to rise ahead at the expense of others ! I did not come to earth for that ."

Yes, I am well aware of the racist abuse these people too suffered from the whites, but it pales before what was done to the blacks. Though I do mean to discount what has been done to these poor people as well. All have suffered horribly .

And you have to understand that all these gangsters belongs to uneducated and povertystricken families.

Perhaps if the U.S. government had heeded Martin Luther Kings proposal to give financial aid, free education and jobs to the blacks, a lot of their poverty would have evaporated,and many of these gangsters would have been going to universities or going for jobs , and living as decent people.

The Indian community,as research has pointed out, is the richest and most well-educated community in the U.S. , and they did it because of their work ethics and education and cultural literacy. There are thousands of multi-millionaires among them and billionaires as well in Vikram Chatwal, who holds a lot of influence among the democrats because of his deep friendship, fuelled by his finances of course, with the Clintons.

Also wish to state that many Indians too were racially abused because of their black skin, and they were also termed as dot-busters, a derogatory term referring to their red spot , Indian women put on their forehead, which refers to the soul or the third eye.

Originally Posted by juantoo3

This is nothing but economics brought about by globalization,which has hurt us in our own way as well, as the prices of the products of some of our farmers have gone down as well.

Any way , the Chinese made products, made of cheap labour are very popular all over the world and clearly outgunning western products. And their economy as a result is going great guns , and is predicted , along with the Indian economy to dominate the world in a dozen years time. No one is blaming the chinese over this.

And similarly no one can blame the Indian workers who are cheaper and produce better value than the american workers.

This itself shows the tremondous potential that are there in blacks. And this was done by blacks who overcome the tremondous odds against them , and became successful in life .

And this itself shows what would have happened if the U.S. government had heeded Kings proposal to give free education and financial aid to all the impoverished blacks. This would have definetely have gotten rid of all the black gangsters at the present moment. But of course, the U.S . government was not interested in it . They were more interested in spending billions of dollars in the Vietnam war, putting napalm over Vietnamese children, and destroying their country. And in spite of all this the americans were thrashed and humiliated by the vietnamese in vietnam.

For your information pal, all people in India are black-skinned. And if you have any doubts, check the photos of our current president A.P.J.Abdul Kalam, and our prime minister Manmohan Singh in wikipedia.

And how many native american, black or female presidents did america have.

India , many western nations, and even Pakistan had a female head of state.
But not america. And of course , women do enjoy a lot of power in america, as seen by the case of monica lewinsky, but only if they go down on their knees and give some fun to the president .

Whites are a minority,I never heard that before. I knew that blacks are about 40 million in the U.S. and the chinese are about 6 million or something. I wonder who is making up the rest of the population.

Any way it is the whites who are ruling America, which had been ruled for centuries by the native American Indians, till they were cruelly supplanted by the whites.
