Dont you think your being way to picky and strange by saying if persisted could be vandalism? I mean yes I understand what your saying...But geez how was I supposed to know other people have covered it? Do I have to read everything before I make a comment?....There were others who talked about calling India the most populous so I read that part. But I dont remember seeing anyone say Russia & China were not Democratic (although again I dont think I read everything) | |||
|align=center | |||
: I can't believe I'm saying this (since a part of me sympathizes with your impatience), but you ''are'' supposed to read everything; otherwise, you end up repeating what others have already said, which in turn makes it harder for others to read everything, and so forth. BTW, most of that discussion ''was'' about whether China was undemocratic or not; and as you will see there, I was really arguing what you are saying. My reference to vandalism was not about being repetitive, but about inserting comments in the middle of a discussion. That is definitely very confusing and frustrating for other readers.

<blockquote> In 1829 Lord William Bentinck, Governor-General of India, '''after consulting with''' Roy, declared sati illegal.

Roy '''supported the government decision''', briefed Bentinck on how to respond to pro-sati petitions, and wrote a tract, Abstract of the Arguments regarding the Burning of Widows Considered as a Religious Rite, 1830. In this he called sati "cruel murder, under the cloak of religion."

I appreciate your efforts to compromise on ] regarding the Sati issue. Regarding your interesting post to Dbachmann . If you believe that Indian patriotism poses some sort of systemic problem, I suggest you look at this and statements made by Chinese nationalists on ]. You appear to have done some research on India related matters and do acknowledge that we are the only true and stable democracy in the region, a region with other countries run by whack-job Islamic Fundamentalists, military dictators and oppressive communist regimes. In such an atmosphere of hostility from countries who hate us for our freedom and democracy which we Indians have embraced from the western culture only and adapted to our own, I posit that ] is, at the very least, inherently pro-west and not anti-west (even the most hardline ]s praise democratic ideas and participate in the democratic process, whereas the ]s and ]s want to return to a medeival Khilafat of authoritarian society). In contrast Pakistani and Chinese Nationalism are rabidly anti-democracy and anti-west, thus posing a far greater danger to the civilized world than Indian nationalism. ] 00:51, 9 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
