Protestors in India burn Gere effigies
- Ok, first of all what was he thinking?
- Secondly, I though Shilpa did the best she could with the situation and that her comments were pretty balanced.
- Third, the BJP and Shiv Sena? Are they still around? Geez. They need to get a life and a hobby before someone figures out that fundamentalist movements are often driven by political, mercenary and not ideological pressures. Seriously, I am sure when you get to the bottom of it you will find that Hindu nationalism/fundamentalism comes from the same ugly place as Christian nationalism/fundamentalism and Muslim fundamentalism.
- Fourth in case anyone is not clear on the concept (though I know this probably doesn't apply to anyone who reads this blog) they are misrepresenting Hinduism and making India look bad. Hello! Wake up! India is a secular state! It says so in its constitution! Promiscuity has problems, but condoms help with most (not all) of them! Plus cheek kissing is not promiscuity!
Ok, I feel better now. I think that's all I wanted to say.
