Fw: [Reader-list] The Vedavatis of this world

hmmmm, I didn't say they are, or could be, cinematic masterpieces.
Just that we are trying to brand her film(s) even before seeing them.
We all object to such labelling when it's done to us, no? As for the
schism, again, why do we have to see every individual in only one
light?

"There are all kinds of religious and secular people, ones that
believe in religion in the public and the private sphere, ones that
believe in religion in the private but in not in the public sphere and
those who believe in the public but not in the private sphere. The
last category is the most insidious, as they do not believe but can
make others believe."
