Pathetically Apathetic

"I am stumped - Don't know whether to call these people 'pathetic' or 'apathetic' "

I just happend to watch this really horrifying video clip on a news channel where a policeman covered in blood is writhing in pain, dying, with his hacked leg on his side, trying to sit up and falling back again while a convoy of a minister, with the "honourable" minister himself stand and watch - Not a single one of them helped!!!

How can anything like this happen? Leave alone being a minister, he was a human first, and the least that he could do is help out a fellow human being! Apparently the policeman was attacked by Naxals, another menace in the country. These are the very same politicians whose lives are protected by these men in khaki, and when they need help, they are not helped even. The only word that can be used to describe such people is "inhuman" - Someone who is not human. As long as we have apathetic people in the country, who ironically "lead" us, we will never be able to come out of poverty and misery, leave alone becoming a world super power! Disgusting, I must say. Oh, in case you are wondering what happened to the policeman, he died :-(

The media was even more apathetic. They were telling that the naxals killed the wrong inspector... As if that reduces the gravity of their doing... It was still a murder! An explanation for a murder does not change the weight of the act...

And I have also been fortunate to share my surname with super rich heirless millionaires, facilitating unscrupulous lawyers to wire their enormous funds into my account so that I can send them their share for making it happen. Considering the number of lotteries I have won and number of inheritances in my name, I am richer than Bill Gates ten times over. But alas, we are aware of how scams work. Some of us, at least. So I continue to be penniless as before.

To each his own

Swami Gulagulaananda challenged " It's time to have the greatest discussion now for a face-off... I dare all religious 'experts' to come here and put your thoughts across " The reason I am writing this article is simple - I recently got some scraps on Orkut from a person who calls himself (montse) Jesus Loves You . And they were some really interesting scraps. They are pasted here as is: (montse) Jesus : hi i don't know u, but all i have to say is that Jesus loves you, died for ur sins believe Jesus for eternity Nik : Hi, I don't know you - But I want to tell you that Sri Krishna loves you - Read the Bhagavad Gita and free yourself from the cycle of rebirth. Believe in Him. (montse) Jesus : but none died for your sins except Jesus, you should receive your salvation only by believing Jesus as your saviour Nik : See, that's where you are wrong - You start off with the assumption that one has to die for someone else's sins. Sri Krishna makes

THE CURIOUS CASE OF RAHUL GANDHI - Nitin Gupta(Rivaldo)

Swami Gulagulaananda said: " If there is one thing which annoys me more than lying, it's hypocrisy " An excellent read this is - Share it with everyone. I picked this from a blog and the author of that blog picked it from an email. So anyway, I thought it was appropriate to give credit to the blog - http://shilps882.blogspot.com/2011/05/curious-case-of-rahul-gandhi-nitin.html?spref=fb ------------------------ Got this article via email forwards. The article is signed by journalist Nitin Gupta(Rivaldo) of whom I learnt only today. It is a good read! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DISCLAIMER: I DON'T ENDORSE ANY POLITICAL PARTY. NOR DO I ENDORSE ANY OF WHAT MAYAWATI IS DOING. I WAS JUST TAKEN ABACK BY RAHUL GANDHI'S HYPOCRITICAL COMMENT AT THE RECENT FARMER AGITATION IN UTTAR PRADESH.
