Dear Prasad,

your post #29 for reference:


Somehow I missed the point that you are an Indian living in US. Culture is many things put together. Culture cannot be defined by just one activity I agree. When a majority dubs you as an advanced section of the society and denies you many benefits which it extends to others you dont just grin and bear it in western cultures. You take a gun and start shooting. But brahmins survive that kind of an injustice and thrive. A poor NB and a poor B have the same task in their hand-keeping the body and soul together. Majorityism helps the former with doles and denies it to the latter. Because it is not in their value system to take a gun in hand they struggle more against the odds to survive. This is just one aspect of cultural traits. I can mention many such. But if you point out an isolated case of a deviation and say this is not the cultural trait my answer would be that numbers matter here. Look at the majority and forget the deviants. hope you understand. Cheers.
