Its ironic that at a temple dedicated to a "goddess" that demanded human scarifices for centures she just got a whole bunch more.

But do the poor souls of India have TV''''s to stay home and watch? Do they have electricity to power the TV''''s to stay home and watch?

India is over populated anyway. Now there are 168 fewer of them. I hope my credit card contact wasn''t one of them.

If they all just had stayed home and watched it on TV and had televangelists with TV coverage then nobody would have died.

I have heard of people being crushed in America at rock concerts. They sure must be a backward people to let that happen.

My post above was sarcasm in reference to the people of India being so backward as to let themselves be crushed.

I wouldn''t expect you to understand since the English Language isn''t your area of expertise.

Oh, and I absolutely love the comments about choosing the "wrong God." Its the whole thing with organized religion thats wrong. Your religion should be kept close to your heart (with your mouth closed) ---------------------------------- Posted by observer2020


What WRONG, is you, dear Boffo! IF you knew ANYTHING about Christianity (and you dont), you would realize that THE primary tenet of that faith is Jesus command to TELL everyone the Good News of Salvation!

You must be thinking of a heathen cult or something else that Lives and Thrives when people try to keep it a secret. Hide that lamp under someone elses bushel, dude!

Never under estimate the stupidity of people in large groups.

Jeasus Christ would not have let this happen. Time to change religions and save your selves from the lake of fire.
