This is just not the right path. It is against Dharma. The Divine is Sat! And how can we embrace the reality of Sat if our utterances distort the truth of something because politically we want it to look as bad as possible?
The truth is still the truth no matter what we say. ----
You know I got banned off a Sikh forum after having a huge disagreement with several moderators over disrespectful things they were posting about Bhagavan Krishna being "vile" and "pornographic." Now, instead of defending Hindu I am debating one in the exact same way as I debated Sikhs for doing the same thing of disrespecting another religion.
The Jews didn't "pooh pooh" the point of the virgin birth to stop evangelists. That's the method of the atheistic communists who insult and attack miracle stories of all religions. The Jews defeat the Christian missionaries by showing how Christian teaching is against principles of Jewish teaching and by showing how missionaries LIE about Jewish teaching to fool Jews. They are pointing out the inaccuracies and the lies. They aren't waging a war against supernatural beliefs in general.
Be careful of your sources, agnosticism is a two-edged sword which will just as soon dismember the profound and beautiful symbolism of Hindu religion.
I am perhaps a bit biased in my belief that a lady can only look beyond boundaries to uphold the truth.
A truly beautiful post, for which my regards and respects to Harjas Ji.
Om Namah Shivaya
That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
