A very good article full of fervour! Nicely points out the pros and cons of the situation. In western countries, pubs are places where one can eat food and have a juice if one chooses! I think one of the issues in India is that "new" things are practiced before they are absorbed "energetically" thereby causing conflicts and controlling factions to come to light. The article mentions that we should allow people to make their choices whether good or bad, which is true, but sometimes the impact on family, society and economy can be huge, so educating the masses as suggested is the best course of action. To inculcate respect for everyone and for their choices.
I enjoyed reading the article. thank you

It seems it has become a fashion to bash Hinduism for everything. How can one bring in Hinduism for some unruly behavior of a handful of people. Can anyone do the same towards other religions? Everyone knows what happens.When heinous terror attacks are carried out on our nation in the name of religion our pseudos say "There is no religion for Terrorism". It is suprising to see that this most tolerant way of life, Hinduism, has been at the receiving end. Reason - it's tolerance. If every body has the right to choose what they want why should be there a ban on narcotic drugs, one can argue that those who want will use (abuse) it and the rest may not. Similarly why should there be any censor board, the people should have right to watch the obscenity if they want it. It is simple to understand that we all live in a society where behavior of each one us influence the life of every other. If the morality of the society goes down every one of us and our future generations will get affected. Instead of the short sighted emotional busts of anger, we should look at the root cause for decline of values, morality and health in the society. If we cannot realize this simple fact, we deserve the fall.
