I don't mean to attack here personally to anyone but I don't agree with the points made by some people here.
ss74k,
when did I say that Brahmans and Chhettris are 100% educated? But of course they are far more educated in percentage than the so called lower casts and janajatis, do you disagree with that? Now don't bring up the centuries old stories that they were suppressed and thats why they didn't get the chance and so on.
enigma too,
I am not blaming anyone for supporting secular state of Nepal. I am just supporting that this issue of religion was absolutely unnecessary at the moment (may be in future) to be touched by our government. Nepal was doing fine as a Hindu state, I don't want to blame Hindu religion for the problems in Nepal. It has just been escapegoated.
I, Nepesahila, am the future of Nepal and so are Karmapa, Vhote etc. Of course I will be happy with Nepal being a secular state but it is not now and not the way it has been done.
Karmapa,
Neither I am looking for any anti-hindu forces nor I am anti against any religion. Why I disagreed on Nepal declared as a secular state is I already mentioned above. I don't know how much you know about hinduism but I know well enough that it doesn't teach anyone to be anti-religious. Moreover, there are so many teachings in there that I know that will make me lead a good life regardless of what I choose to be. So no matter how much devoted to Hinduism I am, that has nothing to do with fundamentalism and extremism. Now some people even think that Nepalese language is racially biased to them, I wonder what's left there to unite Nepal.
Karmagurung,
Look the other way around too. Cow is not only a sacred animal to Hindus, it is also our national animal. And nowhere in the world you get to kill the national animal of that country.
Our state policy has already declared that untouchability is illegal in B.S. 2020. So state has nothing to do with that, it is just our society that is holding these values. You know I have seen even the so called lower caste people discriminating against each other. So it is not just the so called upper castes, everyone wants to be on the upper part of the pyramid, or on top, if possible.
