It's sad that these morons still exist in 21st century India. I guess there's enough of a constituency that they represent.
To be fair though, we nail these Hindu pundits for same silliness that the Parsis, Jews and Muslims practise across the board. As a non-Parsi, non-Jew and non-Muslim, I'm offended that I am denied access to their places of worship. It's not so much that I'm dying to pray at these places, but it's the principle (or lack of it). I have not seen such restrictions in most Hindu or Jain temples, churches and gurdwaras.
Seems the Hindu majority (I'm not Hindu) is held to a higher standard of tolerance than the minorities, kind of in the same way as a non-Hindu has to prove his/her 'patriotism' "beyond reasonable doubt".
libertarian,
On this blog, we've trashed Saudi Arabia for similar bigotry.
In India though, this blogger has been in mosques and churches without problem; we didn't realize we'd be barred from Parsi places of worship.
Anyways, no one should be practicing this kind of exclusion.
Best regards.
