Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 Alright folks I think we have reached the end of this topic. This is starting down the path of off topic bickering. The focus of this board is *Sakti Sadhana*. People of non-Hindu spiritual backgrounds and interests are most certainly welcome here but the petty back and forth is not. ~SE101 , swastik108@a... wrote: > I'm fine with people being different and in fact think humanity is at it's > best when diverse!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 Yes, I'd agree with se101 on this. I see, however, that the back-and- forth has continued anyway. Can we move on? Off-topic or not, all opinions on the issue have now been well-aired, and at this point it's just repetitive. No one is going to change anyone's mind at this point.

That article was pretty much all I had to share on the topic. ( Actually I was going to pull out the article by a Classical Jewish Rabbi on this topic that is very enlightening, but since I see this message here, I'll refrain.
