Impressive! :)<br /><br />Infact i am very passionate about minority issues myself, though i am not sure where do you stand on the same. I agree that people do not want to look beyond a point. Just look at the recent swiss referendum on minarets. Its weird as to how much intolerance is there amongst us all. Probably the reason why democracy sometimes suffers. Mistakes being made because of the majority decisions.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04908466635498833426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766281934277294278.post-31131618885149702292009-12-05T11:51:09.859+05:302009-12-05T11:51:09.859+05:30"A group of children.... ..let the train go..."A group of children.... ..let the train go its way?"<br />When i reached here, my first thought was - a straight 'let the train go it's way'.

If I diverted the train, I would be risking the life of hundreds of passengers.<br /><br />I categorically agree with your lines "the minority is often sacrificed... ... knowledgeable the minority are.<br /><br />Some of my 'minority' views have led to arguments with friends and lengthy (yet healthy) discussions with my professors.<br /><br />What I notice is that most people do 'not want' to look beyond a certain point. They believe whatever they know is the ultimate. And when someone shows them the unseen, they are not prepared to open up their minds to receive it...<br /><br /><br />- 'VTU-JRD' Connet :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
