Did you guys hear about that bomb blast at a mosque in Dilli? I hate it when Muslim blow up places in India. 
Can't India pay countries like Pakistan and those in the middle east to take their Muslims off them.
Why does Hinduism get such bad media? I saw on the bbc news a report of child sacrafices to the godess Kali in Northern India. The report was very derogatory towards Hinduism, and the priests were portrayed very primitively. This was a tantric thing though. BBc also had a program called 'sister of Kali' ages ago. It was about an Irish woman who worked within the bounds of Hinduism doing charity work. Just because she helped some sri Lankan rebels, the BBC dubbed her an 'Irish terrorist'. The program failed to pick up on her charitable causes. Compared to Mother Teresa-who worked within christianity. Of course the BBC sees her as saintly...Also on programmes about the Kumb mehla, the portrayal of naked Saddhus wouldn't have done Hinduism any good. You may have read in the new scientist about Indias sucess in combating AIDS, and how AIDS has decreased in India. Have you seen a news report on this though? I haven't. Its just another example of the MAJOR media companies ignoring Hinduisms good causes.
Taj Mahal is actually a Hindu mandir BTW

Hi everyone, sorry for being away for so long - so much work and revision to do im struggling to even get some sleep!
Lets try this for a topic - it seems that as Hindus, we are generally kind of quiet and to ourselves. Like for example, when an image of some of our deities were on shoes or even toilet seats we didnt cause much of an uproar.
Unlike our Sikh brothers, we didnt take to the streets or anything like that. However, I know that passive protests and attempting to resolve the situation behind the media may have occured - my question:
Do Hindus care if what they believe is ridiculed or do we have other means of showing our distaste and attempting to resolve a situation?

to an extent- however, hinduism does say that everything must be taken in terms of its circumstances- just as one example- the mahabharat (and the bhagvad gita) shows that sometimes violence is the lesser of the evils. However, in general hinduism has a general policy of live and let live.
