"This should not happen in a holy place. I cannot emphasise how special this temple is. Now, thousands of people are standing at the gate crying and screaming. None of them are allowed inside."
Sankot Mochan is a temple dedicated to the God Hanuman and is where Goswami Tulsidas, one of India's greatest poets, saw the God Hanuman in physical form 400 years ago.
This is a god who symbolises devotion, intellect and unparalleled power and protection to devotees (emphasis added) Duh!
Tell me, what did this kid do? What sin did he commit? What sin did all the others who were killed and injured commit? And where is the "protection" of God Hanuman? Where is Hanuman? Where is God? Why do you fools still believe that there is this thing called God?

First I will tell you something….Relax………….
Let me answer your questions:
Why do you fools still believe that there is this thing called God?
I dont know about other fools but i belive in God to cultivate a fear in me. That Fear which will let me discriminate between good and bad….I want this fear to stop me from doing any wrong…”Someone is watching me” thats why i belive in god.
And where is the “protection” of God Hanuman? Where is Hanuman?
And question of where is god? I would love to know the answer…..
Who built this all powerful temple?God Hanuman? no we humans built it…and we are destroying it so why bring Hanuman in this….
This could have happened anywhere else …we have seen recently it happened in markets….Colleges…and let me bring it back to you the attacks on on our houses of power(dec 13th)
You asked what was the child’s mistake? Definetly that inncent life had nothing to do with this …..but just think an optimist can also think as “The Child was saved from death …god saved him…” probably many more would have fallen prey lucky that count stopped in two figures..
I dont know where my comments are taking but I think we should why this was done what was the motive?
We should educate people and let them think that religion should promote universal brotherhood but not kill each other….
Ram Rahim Jesus all are our creations so are Osama Dawood…..

So, God is just a farce, an illusion. Why should it take the fear of God to stop us from doing something bad?

Vadhi dude, you remind me someone I know.. man! So you seem to have a fair idea about God. Good.
Atlantean, you numbskull.. you put His picture up and ask, show me Him or show Him me or show me.. wateva..
That is God, man! Pain, suffering.. mirth, elation.. all same address.

Its really tragic. There is more and more violence in the name of religion which is the opposite of what it espouses and many times, women and children have to bear the brunt of it.

Yes. where is God? show me? If God really exists why does He have to take my aunt( my neighbour, sister…etc) She departed her life at the early age of 28. A simple mixture of glucose and water could have saved her. Most terrible thing ever.

There was once a devotee of the Lord at barber’s shop, getting a haircut done. He and the barber talked a lot but the barber was convinced that there is no God because if He were there, he would have been able to control the sufferings of mankind. The devotee went away. After some time, the barber heard a huge noise, when he went out he saw the devotee with 20 long bearded men shouting that there was no barber’s shop in the city. The barber was very surprised and approached the devotee. The evotee though was adamant and said if the barber indeed were there why should those men have those long beards. The barber laughed and said but what could he do if those men hadn’t approached him. the devotee said, “That’s exactly what I wanted to tell U. What can God do if someone doesn’t approach Him ”
If someone is really interested, please visit http://www.krsna.com and get umpteen numbers of proof of existence of God.

I’m an atheist — not due to these moral questions, but from long bouts of rational thinking.
However, I hate your post. It went well until you used the word ‘fools’. It s not that, of course, I took it to be addressed to me — but I hate superior attitude in anybody. Learn to treat humanity as your equal (or as better than you) — even if they are in the wrong. I’d like to know your age.

You are a damn Fool !!!! And you dare to comment on the almighty that his doing is not correct !!! First ” GO BACK TO YOUR SCRIPTURE WHICH YOU BELIEVE IS CORRECT !! MAN IS WHAT THE PRODUCT OF HIS ACTION AND KARMA ” GO BACK TO VEDAS IS WHAT EVERY ANGEL AND EVERY MESSENGER TILL NOW ARRIVED IN THIS EARTH HAS SPOKEN
YOU ILLITERATE FOR ALL THE MISERY AND DOOM YOU SUFFER HOW DARE TO TROUBLE MY LORD WITH ALL THOSE ILL FEELINGS !! HOW CAN A FATHER EVER HURT HIS CHILDREN ?????
have some clarifications made on the topics you speak you have a 1001 and more cases which support that people like you use god for your own benifitts and when during this course your ego gets hurt or any of your wish remains unfulfilled you blame god !!!!
Brother have patience and let thy teach you of his REAL NATURE !!! Just have faith on him and love is what he expects from you an undivided, true and real love devoid of all selfishness . Just give that to our father and see how life gets changed in a matter of seconds

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: “I don’t believe that God exists.”
” Why do you say that?”asked the customer.
“Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist.
Tell me, if God exists,would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can’t imagine loving a God who would allow all of these things.”
The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and un-kept.
The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: “You know what? Barbers do not exist.”
” How can you say that?”asked the surprised barber. “I am here, and I am a barber.And I just worked on you!”
“No!” the customer exclaimed. “Barbers don’t exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.”
“Ah, but barbers DO exist! What happens is, people do not come to me.”
“Exactly !”- affirmed the customer. “That’s the point! God, too, DOES exist! What happens, is, people don’t go to Him and do not look for Him. That’s why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world.”

“Tell me, what did this kid do? What sin did he commit? What sin did all the others who were killed and injured commit? And where is the “protection” of God Hanuman? Where is Hanuman? Where is God? Why do you fools still believe that there is this thing called God?”
Tell me, What did i do? What sin did i commit? What sin did i do to robber that he stole my wallet? And where was the protection of God? Where was god at that time? And if he was watching , why didn’t he informed me? Was it a plan of both? Why do fools still believe that there is no Involvement of God?
Grow up boy, What did i do that i lost my Milk Bread Slice, i could not find it, God can you tell me, where it is? How about the Protection you promised me while giving me birth (life as you call it) very naughty haan.

dinesh........
frends, let me clear all of you that what is god…………..
god is holy spritiual thinking of human being’s mind,in vedas nothing mentioned about any god…..these are the documents which are written by the saints in ancient time. and reserved day to day by different diff. era.
yes hanuman exists as all written document exists in form of vedas….similar as your pandit do have your history of your family background in haridwar………..this is the document for others.so like this vedas are saved after so many years……….
yes one thing i would like to tell you all that who tell you that hanuman is a god who clear all diseases like mirgi,bhoot pishach………………this all declaired by us only.he is an ideal for everyone in the world so follow their path of knowledge…………
plz tell me how many of you inclunding me also donig crimes…….remember crime is work which hurt someone in any sense…….so nobody perfect.
people in this world are the follower because they dont use their mind,they want easy approach
if negative is there obviously ther is positive,if ther is bad persons really goods are exists there also……..every thing in this earth or even in universe have two faces………..if only one exist we cant compare the exist one ……becaause single one cant be compare .
so if there is bad power so really there is almighty,god power alsothere ………..god.
yes this child is innocent obviously………but she is a victim of our supersticiousness, these are built by us onlynot god.
god didnot tell you that dont come to my place (temple .mam made ) with footwears these all made by us……………..its an example
so why god to include in this debate guys……………god is always a good power inside us………….. it may the principle of hanuman ji …ram ji/……………aur any others spritiual power……….
at last………. this chid is a victim of our superstition.
but frends all r human being all have power to think so different people have different thinkig it is because that humans are the best creation ever made by god……the holy man
so i believe in god because it give me internal power…………………remember your parents are god. for you ……….beacuse they never think negatively about their chind………..but it happen now a days………..so wat u tell where we exist

the problem today in the present education system, we r taught how to feed our stomach but our souls are left starving.
where was hanuman when the child was getting hurt?
why didnt he save the child?
bro, god works in a mysterious way. remember the teaching of the gita, a person with intelligence is still in pain and pleasure. sri krisna himself
had to undergo through suffering then how can we expect us to be free from it? suffering is just an emotion as is pleasure. the day we stop complaining about suffering and the day we stop forgetting god when we are having fun is the day the world wud be a better place

cont..
even hanuman and ram had to suffer, then y do you expect your life to be a bed of roses?
as for the child who is to be blamed? hanuman or the ppl who started these riots?
sri hanuman has taught us how to behave through example so how can we complain when some of us forget his teachings and commit this ghastly act
