Dear Ravi, why dont you allow your peon and other staff to dine along with you in your office?. Why do yopu need a Driver to drive your car? Do it your self. You want to maintain your ministerial position in tact?. If every one is equal in this world why create such hirarchy in the Govt Position? Junior, senior etc etc?. Let us be all equal. If Ravi was so fond of Christianity when he married a Christian girl, he should have thought about it?. Why suddenly he is so fond of feeding his son in a Hindu Temple?. He could have gone to a Christian Temple, where there is no bar. I feel even in Churches there is some rules are followed. You cant chant Bhagavd Geetha in a church. Similarly in a temple we have to follow the age old traditionb, then only we can co exist in this complex world. My advice to Ravi is to keep away from Religion. It will be in the interest of all.

Mr Venkat,
YOU need to keep away from religion. Don't mess up things. Religion is a matter of faith and all humans are children of the one and only god. No priest of any faith has a right to differentiate them.
Such practices MUST be condemned.
All places of worship MUST be taken over by the governed and run by socieites and managed by educated people who are deeply educated in secular theology.
Every Indian has a right to enter any public place and that includes laces of worship as well.

After you convert to Christianity, being a Christian is your only identity. You cease to be a Dalit.

Start an agitation Gujjar style... then we will consider your request.
I don't understand all this non sense. I am not allowed with in 100 miles of Khaabha. So what? Every religion has its codes. If u want to be a part of it U have to follow it fully. You are free to convert if u want. Why fight over it?

What happens in Khaaba is non of our concern, because that is NOT A PART OF INDIA. In India, every Indian MUST have equal right to use public places, and that includes all places of worship. All Indians need to be Indians first and Indians last and NO OTHER SUPERFLUOUS SEPERATIONS LIKE CASTE AND RELIGION should be allowed.
Present Chief Justice of India is a Dalit who underwent Shuddi after he was converted to Xtianity by Church, as they ban Dalits entry into their school.
LET V RAVI AND HIS WIFE UNDERGO SHUDDHI AND EMBRACE HINDUISM.
HIS WIFE WILL NOT BE ALLOWEDTO ENTER TEMPLE PRIOR TO THAT.

People like you should be banned from entering India and thrown off the coast.
All Indians need to have only one identity, that of an Indian.

Hey, don't insult Christianity by spreading hatred and fanatism. Remember, no person of Indian origin is a native christian. Just don't look down upon the other religions to promote yours.
If Brahman do not permit SCs in temple they should not go there they should make there own temples and should make there own priest,ther should not be any hue and cry on this,since it s happeneing thousnand of years in India Brahman make rest untouchable.But the untouchables should proclaims himself untouchable with pride,no body can make any one untaouchable when God make all people equal,Islam do not allow descrimination in the name of colour catse and creed.Islam is a religion of equality and give equal rights to all human.A black lowest catogry person can lead prayer and a king can read under his leadership

islam is the religion of greatest discrimination, inequality and casteism. only outward equality is claimed. the truth of islam lies exposed in today's world connected through media. also western christianity is racist and tries to hide behind 'secularism'. this racism was evident against jews in europe as recently as world war 2. islam's genocide and discrimination needs no elaboration and is not possible without choices of abuses

Tell me why are you follwing the religion of Arabian Desert Tribes ? for the Great Shariaw laws ? Or banning Music and art like done in Pakistan, or destroying Bhamiyan Budhas which was there before the advent of Islam ???
Where do you get the info that Ezhavas are disallowed in Guruvayur?
10s of millions of Ezhavas, non-Brahmins visit this temple every year.
Islam's claim to equality is equally disputed. It differentiates between arabs and non arab converts and treat them unequally. They could not get paid equally, neither were allowed same salary for same work.
Its a Muslim fabicration that Islam preaches equality. THEY STARTED THIS CANRAD ONLY AFTER FRENCH REVOLUTION.
Even today, Muslims form different groups like Ashraf, Arzals...etc who never marry, dine with each other.

Dear Zaheen,
This is what our friend Sriram has written three columns above. "I DO NOT UNDERSTAND" by Sriram Vangal on Jun 04, 2007 09:13 PM | Hide replies
I don't understand all this non sense. I am not allowed within 100 miles of Kaabaa. So what? Every religion has its codes. If u want to be a part of it U have to follow it fully. You are free to convert if u want. Why fight over it?
Can you manage my visit to Kaabaa sometime this year, while I continue as a Hindu. I would love to go there and verify claims by several people about the black stone there. I will try to follow all the rituals taught by you to me during the visit except conversion to Islam in any form. I shall remain grateful to you for the rest of my life for this kind help of yours.

This is the most sickening post I have ever read on Rediff..Besides the very bad english.I am a Paediatrician...and how can any sane person equate the death of a innocent child to this incident! Anyone is free to agree or disagree with the decision of the temple's authorities but to ramble on incoherently in broken english about the death of a child and the dead body only demonstrates the writer's lack of humanity and utter disregard for a precious life.

Christian can believe in Jesus, or Adonyss, or Mithras, or Osiris. The last three were all dying and resurrecting gods before Jesus. All have December 25th as birth date. All dies on Friday. What good choice !!!
They are hands down winners. The story of their god was there for three other gods before Jesus.
