I suppose Pakistan is to be blamed for this tragedy as well!!
this is the typical response. Convinient and complete amnesia for other inhuman and barbaric atrocities committed by Pakistan and in general Muslim terrorists who afterallwere brainwashed. by Quraan to consider all nonbelievers as infidels and must be destroyed without mercy. It is time for rational muslims to rethink and purge and reform their religion and sincerely apologize to the rest of the world so that you can coexist with others.
Those who ran over the little children and women were definitely the ones, who wanted their afterlife to be salvated! Who will teach these blind believers that they must correct their 'This World' deeds to be in a position to be paid up after they die.
My sympathy is with those who suffered, and suggestion to authorities, that they should take control of the situation before the contingencies happen- not after the things are ruined completely.
this is a tragedy for the dead and the people who caused it.
they should take a close look at who they are worshiping.
Folks,
let's get real. These are primitive people, living in a primitive society governed by corrupt, violent people. Look at the country - it is filthy. Yet these people run over to temples and worship wierd gods with elephant heads and other concotions of man-animal and also worship animals. This is the 21st century. Monkeys, cows and snakes are not gods.
This festival is 9 days. Add up all the other crazy festivals and your get more than 365 days of primitive Hindu festivals. This is one screwed up country.
add to this people like Modi, Thackeray, Advani + rampant casteism and you get Muslims being butchered periodically. The Hindus now are raping and killing Christians as if Muslims were not enough. They now have a ludicrous anti-conversion laws.
This country's democracy is a joke. It is worse than China for ordinary people. There is no rule of law.
Then there are communal laws. India is a bigger version of Pakistan except the bad guys are primarily Hindus now.
But one must take a look at his/her religeon more critically! I realize we should not post such messages at this time, but the trgedy also makes one look at things more logically.
Why so many gods? Do they have a god over them?
How about Permishawar?
Who made these gods, isn't it more realistic not to worship these man made gods?
Have you heard of Jesus?
No need to abuse others, but time to think logically!!
I agree, we must think over whom we worship, and why? Is He the Creator or a creation himself. A good example is Jesus sone of Mary! SOME PEOPLE WORSHIP HIM, simply because he had no known father, and his few unfaithful discipels presented him as god. BUT WAS HE? Did he create our planet earth? NO
Did he create this universe? NO
Even the god holy Bible presents, did not know what light was, before he made it!
He created the man but did not know the needs of man, nor did he know that man needs a woman to have children!
Why not try to turn to One Who is the Master, Creator, Manager of this vast universe? That is God Almighty!!
the existence of god is the ultimate truth for us human beings.. The word God is influenced to describe power that is unimaginable for humans to gain. Even scientist today argued on Darwin's theory of evolution. It is too complex for a living matter, especially homo sapiens, to evolve by themselves..
People that still worship 'man made statues' must open up their minds and think logically. gotta be more logical on just putting the word GOD on some statues.. they should understand the concept 'God' and His existence. they shud read more books based on platos or aristole views about life..
I am shock to read that 80 children are dead may god bless their families I can’t imagine what is going with their parents now its high time that Govt should think on the polices of India every life is important in this world in it own unique way Govt must bring good polices and spend some money on studying how they can improve the safety at temples and mass people gatherings instead of spending on parties for cash-for-vote their are many good consultant in India who can provide good services to improve the situation in these temples stumped common in India at least they should try and make situation better and still Govt is not bothered of such situations only media can bend Govt now but they don’t because they won’t get the booty from 1200 cr. congress as declared for election campaign in coming election but for now this situation can be changed in India one by Govt and second by Media but unfortunately both are not with people of India
dang...if muslims aren't bombing or using kids for human shields...the hindus are running over them....damn Bulls have more sense..this part of the world is messed up....time for a massive flood and wash this dirt from the earth.
Dont misuse the word muslims and enhancing it with the word bombings and relating it with children bombing themselves.. those people are extremist..they dont have the right to call themselves muslims.. If they know better, its againts their religion as muslims to do such a thing.
so dont stereotype.
