Gandhi

[shakur420]

^Shit, really don't wanna go off topic, but where exactly is "there"? There are Hindus all over the world, and to try to tie it back into where the discussion was going, there are cultures all over that have elements that seem "weird" to us. Some people eat testicles, and yet would throw up at the thought that we wolf down grilled intestines filled with ground scrap meat that includes cartilage and other normally unwanted parts of animals. So to bring it back, I'm just saying, what the fuck does this shit have to with the "real" Gandhi, at least in regards to the parts that are relevant to him being a recognized figure in the world? Is it relevant to focus on Einstein's personal habits if we're talking about his contributions to society, or lack thereof?

Yeah we already know it got off topic. And 'there" = where ever they actually do it is what I meant. Of course all cultures do things others would go W.T.F?! But I think we can all agree drinking and showering in piss is rather off...

and franks(hotdogs)/sausages are nasty.

I think its only a little part of the hindus in India that does it.

[Gezus]

Yeah, possibly. I don't know. That is why i said I heard some do it. I doubt a lot do. I know not all obviously.

For all I know he is what stood between independence for any people from the Indian british raj that everyone came under when the british came to what they *CONSIDERED* India, so in my opinion stay the FUCK out and give MY people independence motherfucker, stop using peace as an excuse

Your right drinking piss doesnt say anything about his character but what about refusing to let his wife take penicillin to save her life yet taking quinine to save his own what about the fact he thought of blacks only one step above animals also your making him seem like a better man then he actually was by sounding like he sacrifced so much for the sake of other people he wasnt the one jumping infront of trains in protest he wasnt the one starving himself to death in protest he wasnt the one setting himself on fire in protest and who the fuck was he to tell thousands of people to kill themselves in protest when he wouldnt do it himself he also said Europeans and upper caste hindus were the same because they both shared the same "noble aryan blood" he only wanted independance for the hindus otherwise he wouldnt have supported the british during the Boer War and the Zulu uprising it reminds me of the Sri Lankan Prime Minister when his people were being killed he was all about independance and human rights but when he came into power his government started butchering tamils.Fuck Gandhi
