Religion came later...Diwali actually was brought into India from a colder darker region and putting lights on in the winter was celebrated. It predates any of the religious figures. Anyway I thought Obam explained it well and I know he meant it well, even if he is talking to a political constituency. Obamas is a prisoner of his job like anybody else.........Anyway Cheers and Happy Diwali....Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
