Sanity Restored. Thanks. NightCrawler Jee: An educated person like you must know mob mentality. A mob can be incited to do just about the most inhuman thing imaginable. Think about Hutu-Tutsi massacres. For reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwandan_Genocide. Do you really think that it was the true opinion of all those people involved? I am not saying the bahun-newar discussions are at the level of hutu-tutsi genocide. But they have reached pretty low depths - there were even insults directed towards the parents. Let us hope that the opinions expressed are NOT the true opinions of the people involved - but were merely products of incited minds. Let us calm down a bit - then if you are a Newar, imagine saying such things to your Bahun friend or if you are a Bahun imagine doing the same to your Newar friend. Growing up in Nepal, you must have had plenty of friends of other ethnicity.
