Indianising Muslims and Christians, whatever that means ...

Another one from the head-knickerwallah of the RSS, Mr.Sudarshan, who seems to be bent upon proving conventional wisdom wrong. As people age, they tend to become wiser & tend
to deliver sage counsel. But not so for the types of Mr.Sudarshan.

After his stupid exhortation to India's Hindus to go ahead and multiply, about which I wrote
here (
http://indiandream.blogspot.com/2006/01/go-ahead-and-multiply.html), another
great idea has struck him. This time it is to Indianise those who are not Hindus, whatever it means. To quote him, "We cannot throw our Muslims and Christians into the ocean. So, let
us Indianise them."

From when did India become synonymous with a particular religion ? My passport mentions

my country as "Republic of India". It does not mention "Hindu Republic of India" as in the "Islamic Republic of Paksitan".

Who the hell is Sudarshan to think about what should be the ethnic / religious composition
of India ? What authority does the RSS even have to debate such things ? They are at best
a group of thugs who use religion for their own petty gains. What locus standi does the RSS
have to make such an observation ?

Who made them the voice of even the Hindus, leave alone all Indians ? If they were indeed
the voice of all the Hindus in India, the BJP would be in power today, which fortunately is
not the case.

India is lucky that the majority are not taken in by the absurd logic of communalists. Else,
we would have probably degenerated into the kind of chaos that can be seen in countries
where religion is allowed to mix into politics.
