How dare Mr. Zaimov be so culturally bigoted? He should check his privilege!

The shepherds were watching over their flocks in the field at night on the night Christ was born.

The worst manager I’ve ever had was a Indian man.
He really thought American workers were beneath is status.
He was fired two years later.

The second worst was a Indian woman.
We always figured she spent her entire life being walked on by men and now it was her turn.

I will NEVER work for another Indian

The practice of a wife being immolated on the funeral pyre of her husband is the Hindu practice of “suttee.” A good explanation is given by Encyclopedia Britannica —

The British finally outlawed it in 1829.

This article is total BS.

Why sati is still a burning issue

Last week, 60-year-old Sharbati Bai attempted to commit sati on her husband's pyre in Rajasthan's Sikar district. She couldn't because the village and the police stopped her just in time.

Roop Kanwar, India's last known sati, was not so lucky 20 years ago. Has Rajasthan finally won the war against the practice of sati?

Sati (practice)

There have been 30 cases of sati or attempted sati over a 44-year period (1943–1987) in India, the official number being 28. A well-documented case from 1987 was that of 18-year-old Roop Kanwar. In response to this incident, additional legislation against sati practice was passed, first within the state of Rajasthan, then nationwide by the central government of India.

That is the difference, I suppose. This fellow's attitude was pretty blunt/ “to bad we can't get rid of the bottom half of India's population. They are just an anchor pulling us down. India will never be great with its masses of useless people and its host of useless religions.”

Average temperature in Israel in December is about 45 at night. This doesn’t seem to me to be unbearable; I have friends that go camping in such weather... but I’m from Michigan.

Some are hard to work WITH let alone under. Could be they are similar to the elite rich here in the west except here we have individual and in India there are families. Remember there are exceptions in every group.

True. I have heard a US educated Indian engineer state ‘India has a population of over a billion. A few thousand bride murders isn't even a triviality. Many more people die from snake bites or falls down wells. Why do you westerners constantly search for mites in the eyes of others’.

India has 8,000 bride murders per year, with a population four times the US. The US had 3,208 female homicides total in 2016.

hmmm. He should have thought about what he said. Maybe the people wouldn’t BE useless if their religion didn’t teach them they ARE useless. Boy do I love my God who loved me before I was born and even knew where my molecules were.

Ps 139

13 For You formed my inward parts;
You wove me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;
16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.

Jesus loves me this I know! For the Bible tells me so!

I learned that song about 5 decades ago. I remember the room and when I drive by the church I smile and thank Him for whispering to me.

India is one of the biggest polluters and global warming contributors in the world! This does not help!

....”Satan is deeply entrenched in India”....

With a welcome mat......the last county on earth I would ever go to. Nasty, filthy dirty, and full of an empty mindless population.....and why their government has to hire so many employees outside their country to do their work labor projects.

No it’s not.....Years ago the Guru’s determined to target the USA by introducing a ‘softer side’ of Yoga practices.....and here we are.

If you have to ask then you haven’t looked into the history of Yoga and why it’s even practiced in the US.... might do you well to investigate something before you begin practicing it.

I’ve learned anyone already practicing Yoga is very defensive about anyone who would suggest this is the first steps of initiation into “emptying your mind”......

Those who ‘practice Yoga’ here in the US haven’t a clue because far too many churches let them use their facilities to hold these classes so they assume it’s ok.

This is playing out exactly how the India Guru’s agenda for the US was planned for when they targeted the US.....and the reason for targeting the US was it’s citizens are well beyond the wealth of the citizens of India.

I was corresponding with a US Physician who got caught up in this stuff. She was in it for years as an Instructor. Then she became a Christian. She of course now goes also on speaking engagements to warn of what people are actually doing when they practice Yogi. If people knew they wouldn’t touch it.

Unfortunately those practicing Yoga will tell you often they don't get into the chants etc..they just learn the ‘exercises’ as they are told it really isn't practicing a faith or spiritual.
