out here..w ehave so many jokes... on hinduism,on sikhs..on whatever community you from. everyone take sit with a pinch of sugar..they even create stuff...and sms it all over. the laugh about it. i wonder at times, if humans are becoming humorless? i'm not saying that the cartoons were sensitive..they are not. what i do find really really strange is that they were printed..in a country tucked far away in europe. Not seen by others. now..it's all over the world. instad of hushing it up.. keeping it low keyed.. fanatics, and the media and to blow it up out of proportion..hence riots, demonstrations. People getting hurt, angry. does it make sense? whyw asnt it just a hushed up affair.. done and forgotten? why blow it up out of such large proportion.. esp if the cartoons are of a sensitive nature? you know what is also so stange? i'm not so sure of other countries..and religions..but i've noticed there are very few jokes about muslims, but lots on hindus. and of christians. and parsis. and buddhists. does anyone get what me saying?
