Trip to IG, Honor Killing
Today I went to International grocery store. I have brought 11 packet of pre cooked vegetables. It includes Rajma Masala, Aloo tikka, Paneer Tikka, Pav bhaji, Navratan korma, Kadai Paneer etc. Also got some confectionery including Skittles, Brach's Bridge Mix and Brach's California Resin plus my favorite two packs of Hershey's Nuggets, plus four packs of Neoguri noodles. I hope its enough to see me through the next 12 days. I also met Catherine at IG after a long time. She used to stay there in University Hall. Hideki was also at IG. He went there just for a single pack of noodle !!
I was reading the Timesof India web site and was laughing after reading the "Nikhanama". Where Muslim men have now a new option instead of saying Talak- Talak- Talak irrevocably they now have an option of saying it 1 time and then they have 3 month of time to make up their mind and most of the women seem to be happy. I wonder do Muslim women also have the same right to say Talaq and get along with other guy ? Probably she will be stoned to death or someone from her own family will do the honor of killing her and bringing grace to the family. A search on google about honor killing got me to this site where some enlightened soul is trying to make Quranic references to justify that Women have equal rights and can divorce men and the term for that is "Khu". Interesting isn't it ? People have been villyfying Islam for so long that it now appears as a religion which is just antiwomen, hell bent on bringing every one into its fold, subjugating freedom of thinking and starting Jehad everywhere. Or it really is true ? Internet can be said as a beginning of true democracy. Where you can hear the voice of almost anyone from the terrorists to the spritualists. Another quick search brought me to a web site called www.FaithFreedom.org Its an anti Islamic site and the owner claim themselves to be reformed Muslims and have been urging people to leave Islam. Internet may be the first sign of organize revolt against Islam. So far its juggernaut has been rolling. It will be interesting to see how such movement take on the world's biggest religions in the coming decade when most of the people will be occupied with learning and improving themselves. Already there are so many fractions in Christanity. It seems almost everyone can have his own church. Islam so far has been successful in keeping a check on its pupil because of its teaching that just unilaterally term others as less mortal and its bait of after life rewards. Its funny the very things that are prohibited in life are the rewards one reap in after life. Buddhism, Jainism are growing because of the inherent clause of Ahimsa. A recent court in India had some verdict on the use of word Hindu that its not a religion and that its a philosophy of life. Since there is no clause of conversion and proselytizing anyone plus life after death based on Karma makes hindus immune to this politics of religion. I recently checked a Ku Klux Klan website and boy it was funny to say the least. I wonder have these people ever taken a time to know other people or do they ever watch television other than their own programme or do they ever travel to another country ? If they start doing they will know that how much in pain they are living !! God bless them and help them enjoy their life.
