RE:One important thing is missing
by IndianReporter on Apr 30, 2007 09:26 PM

Rationalist cannot behave irrationally to suit themselves. If he wanted to convey that we should all be rational , then he should have led a movement of debate and countered everything scientifically. Rationalism does not account for emotionless state. Rationalism if taken to the core, should question you very existence. Why should you eat and sleep as you are anyway going to die. Science and Rationalism have never answered everything satisfactorily. What created the world we live, why only 3/4th is water.. few blind beliefs of some civilization can be questionned , debated in various forums and all peacefully done to bring in change. EVR wanted publicity and being an illiterate chose the masala way of targetting an educated segment.
