Nas - My viewpoints are not too far off from yours, although I don't feel as strongly about him as you do. But I have to say I am disappointed you chose to use bigoted and homophobic words to describe him. Calling him a "homo", in my opinion, is in poor taste and doesn't make your argument any stronger. On the contrary, it has the potential to turn people away from agreeing with you because although they see through the Sai baba they could never refer to gays in a derogatory manner. That said, if people chose to beleive in Sai baba or anyone else, I look at it as a matter of choice. Where I depart ways with some of the baba's followers is on the question of miracles. First, I don't beleive in them and can't understand how any rational person can, and second, I think the movement has it's own legs and does not need to depend on claims of miracle to sustain it. My 2 cents.
