>>> the sooner the hindus and hindu orgs of Nepal disassociate themselves from these FUNDAMENTALIST India-based hindu organisations - peopled by suspremacists, bigots, promoters of patriarchy, and practitioners of apartheid based on caste - the better it is for Nepal. Why are you bashing them and hinduism? Frankly my family members will react voilently if someone declares saudi arabia a secular country. The indian hindus might have similar feelings towards nepal... They are just making fuss and will cool down. But what if the fire catches on in nepal? There is huge possibility that it could... especially as such religious clashes can give some hold to king who has been completely marginalized... I had never believed that nepal will be declared secular country except in the case of maoist takeover. I was surprised by this declaration.
