These newly converted Christians are the worst of the lot, the only people who have approached me for conversion or trying to give lectures about Christ have been recent converts.
@Infowarrior
thank you for getting a sensible issue for discussion.
I am very much for spending more on SC/ST and getting them into mainstream.
however, separating them out of the mainstream is also an issue.
I have a question:
you say the targeted Budget allocation towards SC/STs and Dalits is low.
but should this also take into account the overall general population budget allocation?
I mean, the rest of the budget is not allocated towards only non-dalits or non-SC/STs right?
when the govt announced health care scheme for a good percentage of population, they have not targeted only non-SC/STs or non-Dalits here.
there needs to be a correct definition of "oppressed" classes as well. that debate is sorely missing, after all, there is a lot of anti-brahminism hate in India too. How come that is not considered as "social discrimination"?
At least Christians of Kerala have no problem with it, it is a part of culture here...
Wanted to post in this line.... But then thought, better to be away from this....... Post the pic of kodimaram, chenda melam, ana ezhunnallippu, vedikkettu, ghoshayathra any other you could think of..... But dont blame me if some one say that these are stolen from local culture.....At least Christians of Kerala have no problem with it, it is a part of culture here...
Well I would call them adopted...
It would be funny if we we adopted practises and culture of Iraqi xtians, no ??
. Western Christianity too adopted practises of early non Christian cultures which existed before emergence of Christianity in Europe.Even the jews borrowed many practises and beliefs from Egyptians...so there is no point for a faith derived from the former to preach isolationism.
So there is no point in preaching IUML kind of religious fundamentalist thought -lighting nilavilak is Haram, everything is Haram... even bathing in hot water is Haram...
He keeps posting nonsense so his propaganda thread doesn't disappear from Forum top posts. That is his strategy to get views and replies, spam.
Told you before, Congress is bankrupt after Demonetization , Now the Congress engine is running on fumes.
Another term of Modiji will make INC go negative,( they are probably negative in ledger now) beyond 2019 , no one would be willing to lend them or finance money. That is how you wither a tree by denying it water, sun, and other nutrients.

no one can blame you for stealing from local culture. the local culture belongs to you, me, everyone. an Indian Christian is as much an heir to Indian local culture as an Indian Hindu or Indian Muslim. you cannot steal something thats yours. We are also free to discard whatever you dont like and adopt any new things.
the issue comes when we openly discriminate - this is Hindu stuff, shouldnt be there, this is Haram, this is Halal. for heavens sake - its an oil lamp. I can understand if a butcher cuts meat in front of a Jain temple (sort of disturbing for a sect that preaches absolute non-violence) but what does an oil lamp disturb you?
Congress maybe low on finances but they are not bankrupt, they are certainly smarter than idiots like Mamta/TMC and Kejriwal who went hysterical after demonetisation as they kept major amount in cash. Congress leaders and specially the Fake-Gandhis have tens of Billions of dollars stashed away, they could match BJP at every level if they wanted but nope, these greedy misers won't risk their personal money.
Need another 5-6 years of Congress without power at centre as well as major states to drain out their finances completely, at the same time BJP should continue attacking other vectors of Congress incomes just like they did with private medical colleges, should conduct more anti-corruption drives and raids to drain out as much money as possible.
I said it on other thread the big fish of INC got money stashed safely outside India, it is the cadre,local,regional leaders who went Bankrupt, they are asking for money from INC HQ but, the message they got was, manage it on your own. Until UPA comes to power, we cant risk taking our stash and getting caught by Intel agencies while moving it. That was the reason Many INC leaders were joining BJP in droves, to save whatever is left and to stop IT raids, CBI etc. from frisking them .
The Congress lost a lot of cadre strength as its coffers went empty, the HQ is only giving cash to sure winners in state elections and What INC lost it is trying to make it up in Karnataka and its giving them a even more corrupt image as MR.10%CM Siddaramiah in Karnataka, if they lose Karnataka its game over. As there won't be any source of cash nor avenues to money launder stashed cash into white and bring it into circulation in country.
Any idea what's the price for one Lok sabha seat is ? They can make crores just selling 25 % seats.
Sad to see this much amount is almost being wasted in the name of SC/ST upliftment, if at all govt should provide they should only provide to the people with economically poor background, I have seen many dalits filthy rich bcz of reservation and they never cared about other dalits, social upliftment can only happen via proper education not via money(a dalit will always remain untouchable to brahmin no matter how rich they become, so here education of brahmin is important), when I meant education I mean real education with respect to what your NATION was thousand years ago.
We should end current caste basis reservation ASAP and reform the reservation process(if at all we want to keep reservation) on the basis of economic condition.
At least Christians of Kerala have no problem with it, it is a part of culture here...
Yup I have many good Christian, Muslim friends who aren't in business of routinely questioning the pretty omnipresent underlying Indian cultural customs (whatever their specific origin)!...i.e the normal folk I am alluding to heh. Kerala definitely has great examples. I mean come on, almost everyone partakes in Onam, among other festivities. Just like many Hindus participate in Christmas in India and all over the world etc.
If yer not a fan of cross-cultural stuff, no ones forcing you to be there either (certainly is not like issue of mosque loudspeakers in some areas). Its really not rocket science most of the time, people that antagonise for antagonising sake are really scummy and they can be from any community too.
This is irrelevant, this woman is not an Indian citizen and prefers to sit in her apartment in NY and troll all day long. There are many reasons to unfollow her on twitter and avoid sharing her posts.
from bbc:
The 53-year-old subway conductor has been luckier than most Dalits back home, women especially, who suffer unspeakable cruelty, are employed in menial jobs including cleaning of human excreta and are segregated by their communities.
Unlike most of her lot, her family was "middle class", thanks to the help of Canadian missionaries in her region who aided in education and offered them religion. Her family was thus Christian and benefited with education. Her parents held jobs as college teachers.
Gidla says that proselytization didn't help her lot. "Christians, untouchables - it came to the same thing. All Christians in India were untouchable. I knew no Christian who did not turn servile in the presence of a Hindu."
no mention about reservation, no mention of abolishing caste system, no mention of how many meritorious open category people have to forego their education, jobs, promotions - only praise the other countries so they give you a job as a subway conductor.
By thd way the woman is a douchebag who hates everyone who is not a naxal or missionary.
Look how casually she comments on ppls appearance.
