"It's a fact of life, whether you like it or not. The second point to be made here is that the PrachandaPath resembles Peru's Shining Path, the communist party of Peru." how do you say that? let me ask you this. how much you know about prachadapath and "bahudaliya janabad" (Multiparty Red Movement) and what similarities do you see between it and shining path? how makes you so judgmental about them? about US tagging maoists as terrorists, well does it really mean anything in the long run? no matter what impression they have left to US and international world, it was during the time of people's revolution. people die in revolutions that too of this magnitude. french revolution is the proof. now that they have come for negotiation and they would/should drop the gun once conflict is resolved. yes china are moving towards capitalism. exactly my point..conventional communism is not the order of the day. world is getting smaller and you got to reciprocate with other communities and maintain a bilateral relationships...that is what maoists should/would do. okay back to the celibacy thing.... quest, its not about opportunities and not getting anyone for sex ...i am talking about human nature...why can't someone abstain from sex if he is really determined? and no i am not fearful about responsibilty neither i said i see a charm in single's life..marriage is not all about sex. but why do we need it? what is there in being engaged. i may sound childish bur i am expecting a deep thoughtful approach to the question. so far no one has given...
