| Can't help it but to ..... hahahahaahahahahahaaha! Joss topic and joss debate! I personally don't care what she wrote or what she has said. Why? She has the right to say what she wants! I respect her bold approach. It's the readers who has the intelligence to choose how they will take the words. As a bullshit or as a serious fact. My belief in the higher authority of life (God) is very stable and crystal clear. It matters not to me what the world has to say, at least not even a bit what mere human(taslima) have to say.....science can prove & present its new new theories and discoveries. I will read them and think about what it says then choose how I will take them. Doesn't mean it will amend my beliefs of God or move me from my belief. I do question religious acts and laws all the time and yet to find a lot of answers, but still I believe there is someone out there who is the reason we are here. About this topic, if she has said something that offends religious people then she should not be crucified, instead she should be left to the hands of the supreme power that we believe in. She indeed will have to answer her deeds at a time, sooner or later. A dog can bite, but can we do that to the dog? As a civilized person I'd say let her live her way, everyone else has their own intelligence to determine what is right & what is wrong as well as what is true and what is not. I live in a world beyond your world.... | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Kaal raate TV te ekta alochona sunlaam ebon ,aaj sokale news paper-e porlaam, sunlaam je Taslima tar DWIKHANDITA boi-tar kichhu onso bad dite raji hoye bastob porithitir songe compromise korechhen. Bubla ,as a student of literature whatever I felt I wrote I could not understand whether Ronoklanto appreciated me or mocked at my comments but I want to say that I am not the only person who have thought of that kind of comparison.The so called erudites in TV who were discussing about the topic of such withdrawal of statement by Taslima compared the incident with Galileo's recantation, and told that he did it for his circumstances.If he would not recant he might have done the right thing but due to his compromise he survived and contributed more in the field of science so we might expect that we will also get more realistic views of the society from her future works . As a person I feel that your comment about Islam" ___" is true at least to some extent, as far as my knowledge concerns about Muslims, here in India where most of them are poor ,illiterate , refuses to sent their children to normal schools,refuses for vaccinations ,like to send them to madrasas, less interested to educate their girl children, think birth controlling as a sin even if they are not capable of providing them properly and so on From chacha Nehru every politician thinks them as vote bank and take the policy of not disturbing them rather indulge them to do as they wish. Every human has the right to live ,jader onake marar ichchha tara exailed na kore mere dile-i parten nischoy osubidha chhilo tai exiled kora hoyechhe noile emon hoyni tato noy ami sudhu bokai robo etai amar ambition  ami kono baul hobo etai amar ambition  ami voboghure hobo etai amar ambition  | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Chand, We all have freedom of speech but to a limit.. Your comparison of philosophers and great scientists with a writer who has very limited knowledge of history and her own written topic is laughable. She was referring to texts of the Mogol ideology and asking for the Quran to be changed is clear evidence of her not being fit, biased and in need of further education before writing on such sensitive issues… Freedom of speech is to enjoy the freedom to express your grief, disagreement or agreement but it has a limit. In many European countries you are not allowed to deny the holocaust, you express your displeasure of people expressing hatred to this so called writer, can I ask what would the reaction be if she was to write the same about Hinduism? Or someone wrote that Indian Cricket team can’t play! I can get arrested in England for expressing support of a terrorist network and that in one of the most civilised countries in the world..! | |||||||||||||||||||||

| This is what i think. Impression on Taslima's Literature: Being a very less knowledgable on literature, i did try to read Taslima's books. Amar Meyebela, Dikhondito. Both the book whenever i started; with all rights of critcising a literature, i wud like to say, porte porte mone hoyeche jeno majhe majhe boi theke keu galigalaz kore uthche - compare to other normal literature.Erokom sahityo ke amar 'nomoskar'. Or kichu kichu kobita OKAY sort of.Thats my honest comment on her writing. Impression on Controversy: If someone tries to make any bad comment on a large group of people's divine belief, how much ever that person be smart, how much ever the belief is illogical, i wud say that person is utterly respectless and heartless, so that he/she can just kick out what those people were worshiping for years to God with utter respect. and in that case I do have OBJECTION under human rights. I show NO respect to these ppl who does not know how to respect in first place. Unsure about specifically Taslima's statements; i can tell how i feel badly if someone paints a obscene painting of a GOD i pray to. I surely wud want the painter ( M F Hussain) behind the bars with proper punishment for being disrespectful of others belief even in the name of ART and Literature. He has been loosing the cases and was applying for higher court.But just then some shitty extremists vanadalised his house to kill him. And thats how he is now in Dubai in' Rajar Hal' e. Same goes to Taslima, was enjoying kolkatar rosogolla now enjoying Dilli ka laddo. I feel, these criminals are eating Dudh and Kola only because of those bigger criminal extrimists. Facts on recent incident: West Bengal Govt has clearly made their stand "Rajyer Shanti Bighnito hole Taslima r ekhan theke chole jaoya uchit". Which is not to keep their vote bank balance, after 30 years of majority. it was definitely an wise decision, considering amount of terror built by those extremists so high that ARMY had to be put on kolkata street. There was even a kids school running during the riot.No one definitely wud risk the life of innocent ppls for un-respectful Taslima and shitty extremists knowing that bengal is sensitive in this matter compare to other states. Central Govt also had already expressed their uneasiness to handle this Political Refuge (trouble). I dont find how on earth, the literacy is coming into picture which i think wasnt a correct info though. Unless there is an end of the extremism we cant do anything about such crimes.  . Taslima is just getting a VIP care. M F Hussain has bought all the tickets of a prime Theatre in Dubai on the day of release (last Thursday) of Madhuri's AJA NACHLE to invite his frnds and common ppl for FREE. Ekei na bole BADSHAHI CHAAL?. huh! | |||||||||||||||||||||
