Here are couple of responses to letter "Close
your site" by Sithersingh Michael
Sir,
You seem to be utterly confused about the concept and the objectives of
religion. I would request you to please tone down your rhetoric, sit
quietly, read your own letter and think.
Your frequent repetition of the word "hot-headed fanatical Brahmins" and
your uncensored and wanton abuse of Hinduism makes me wonder who is
hot-headed and fanatical. The people whom you are labelling "self-serving"
Brahmins assume a high, respectable and honored status in the society.
Your reading and study of this site seems very crumpled and you making
such blatant comments about the people associated with Indiacause is not
justified at all by your lack of information.
You say Krishna slept with a number of women. The moment I read this, I
was put in a non-explainable "dumbstrucked" mode as to how a person can be
so ignorant and foolish. I seriously recommend you do some background
reading before you make such irresponsible comments.
In fact, I would be "enlightened" if you give me name of 1 woman with whom
Krishna actually "slept". Show me one description in mythology where it
says so.
I really cannot explain how a person can be so cheap in his talk,
especially about religion. I also cannot understand why nationalism has to
be always linked to religion. I would still sit and discuss things with
the Marxists, who are communists and anti-religion. But bad-mouthed people
like you are a blot on intellectuality.
The rest of the letter is filled with such foul language, with a radiance
of foolishness from every nook and corner of the writeup. The reference to
flesh-eaters and blood-drinkers makes me wonder whether we two are the
only normal people in India.
Whatever be my first impressions about this letter, at the end, I was so
convinced by the conviction in your writing that I have now started
believing that YES!! The religion that I have been following till now is
satanic, and pagan. I have been worshipping demons till now. I hope you
could show me the road to salvation and reap my soul as you deem worthy.

Who were your forefathers? Definitely Hindus. Before you knock down
Hinduism further, please read Bhagwat Geeta.
Compare the extermist views propogated by fundametalist Muslims and
Christians with tolerant philosophy advocated by Hindu Dharma and see for
yourself. There are tons of refereferences available on internet for all
religions. As regards to nude courtship scenes, we Hindus know about them
and Hindu sculptors have carved them with pride. Have you heard of
Kamasutra? We Hindus take pride in it too. As regards to stealing Butter
from Neighbors, Krsna did child mischief nothing more, Okay?
Hinduism is the only religion which has in-depth knowledge about space and
other modern marvels that rest of the world has just recently come to know
about. It is a religion since forever (Sanatana Dharma) all other
religions are man made. Therefore, yes, you're right. You can not compare
all the man made religions with Hinduism.
Lastly, if you don't like India Cause, you can certainly stay away from it
and continue to subscribe to Pseudo secularists of Indian and foreign
origins such as Sonia Gandhi, Hindustan Times, Outlook, Times of India and
my favorite The Hindu (Owned by a Muslim foreign Sultan). You will find
yourself in good company.
