Tempmples were open to all until the semm1tti1c I1nvvaader5s arrived - first from the dessert and then from europe. Neither of these came in peace. They only believed in impp00sing their beliefs and riddicuuling the native belief.
There is plenty of other places to do sight-seeing.

Hinud money donated to these Temples are being given to Non Hindus. Not the other way. No Temple would force u or say pay the money we will give entry. U r free to give urJakath to any

On the contrary, most of the temples are managed by govt officials many of whom are non-hundus. The non-hindus decide the affairs of many temples. Often they pilfer the money or give it to govt where it goes to minority subsidy.

Also for your information, the revenue generated by the temples in Kerala are being used by the Government to pay salaries to their employees etc, whereas the revenues generated by the Churches and Mosques are used for their own welfare?? Is it fair??

Yes, I was aghast at seeing Kollur tepmple being managed by a christian, and she managed to do some damage, by totally commercialising it.
I live in Chennai and I have seen some foreigners opening flouting the rules of the temple. So the rest of the foreigners have to face the brunt of this. Why is Rediff making a hue and cry over this? If non Hindus respect the sentiments of the temples, this would not be a problem.

perfect Janas. Rediff is creating confusion and unnecessary debate. Better highlight issue for the common man than creating controversies.
