Godliness in this case is apparently next to cow piss. It reminds me of the drink, Calpis, that was sold in Japan. I never met a foreigner who would buy it.
At any rate...
A special prayer ceremony was held in order to purify the school premises and the headmaster decided to clean up low-caste kids for good measure.
About one-sixth of India, 160 million, are dalits (those on the lowest rung of the Hindu social order).
And, they still, obviously, suffer severe discrimination.
What is it people are always saying...all religions lead to heaven.
Not if it means having to be sprinkled by cow urine.
What is wrong with this picture?
Unfortunately, no religion leads to heaven. Who are you to say that sacred cows are not what god wants us to shower under? It seems quite strange to eat the body and blood of Christ at Sunday service too, doesn't it? What about self-flagellation? Christianity (and all other religions) are full of insane behaviour, and yet people (like you) flock to them without thinking rationally about life.
