I wonder if he would be annoyed by anti-Thuggee rhetoric? Perhaps he is just plain old afraid of what might happen to him or this website in response to offending the sweet and gentle religion of peace. Fear is, I suppose, a difficult thing to deal with, but I wouldn't know.

Ummmmmmmmmm ... the Thuggees were Indian, worshipped Kali ( Kali-Ma ) and weren't Muslims. We get out English word " thug " from this group, who were bloodthirsty muggers/murderers, who would be riviled, by all here, IF this cult still existed; which it doesn't.
