The Pakistani version of the same story is that all Hindus worship rats and will turn them loose in your neighborhood if you let a Hindu family live in it.
I have found that story to not be true - but some of them do have an affection for Black Mamba snakes that I find to be a bit disquieting. Then, too, most Hindus are bothered by that just as much as I am.
Please do not degrade these coveted board on Free Republic with that kind of idiocy. The Free Republic is one of the few places that people with minds can talk, debate, and think. Your base and vile statement that "Hindus worship rats" is totally deceitful and an evil statement, and it is typical of the ISI propaganda war machine that is ruining Pakistan, India, and the rest of the world.
