Periyar was socially well accepted because he treated all religion with the same derogatory remarks with the purpose of social uplifting ; For eg, He broke Lord Ganesha statues , Ridiculed the birth of Jesus christ to virgin Mary , made terrible remarks on islamic fundamentalism ; He chose this hard path to bring a sense of thinking and uplifting of poor and down-trodden ; Those are his strong opinions and the Context here is important and relevant ; ; Nevertheless , Tamilians today belonging to any religion , party , social strata strongly believe in God proving the wisdom of our fore-fathers ;

His anti brahminism is based on his bitter personal experience; When his close friend Rajaji ( a brahmin by birth ) died , he cried and burst into tears ; Regarding Tamil Nadu and Anti brahminism , First of all , the low population brahmins never care because it is purely political; Anti brahminism is perceived to be anti Hinduism; That perception is exploited and used to garner votes from so called minorities; Today Tamil nadu is characterised by Cinema , Liquor , Freebies alongwith hummungus Public Debt thanks to continued Dravidian rule ;

@jim409 Caste is prevailing in all religions not only in Hinduism ; Division and Discrimination is a part and parcel of any society ; It is prevalent in work environment ( manager , supervisor , clerk ,Peon and Janitor ) Air line ( first class , Business , Economy ) Hotel ( seven , five , three , middle range , street food etc ) and what not ; Exploitation in the name of religion is unfortunate ; In fact religious teachings can help to overcome discrimination in the society ; I would prefer to say that it is because of Religious traditions , culture and literature Tamil Society is tolerant ; Otherwise , it would have been a free for all ;

@VishalKumar-xp6gz Normally people will not be serious about religion ; However material world creates divisions and strong discrimination in the society ; Famous dialogue “ rich gets richer and poor becomes poorer” is purely on the pursuit of possession and positions ; Ultimately that will lead to anger and frustration ; Here comes the religious help ; Religion is meant for Peace , Love and Happiness ; Thats my clear understanding;

Yes ; What is being criticised is the mere rituals in the name of God which blunts the thinking ; All religions are standing on strong foundations of Ahimsa , moral and ethical practices, honesty , Truthfulness , Helping others and contribution to society etc ; These can not be questioned nor be criticised; In a democracy conversions are allowed but it happens without understanding the underlying principles of any Religion ;

@jim409 Today Society is divided into Rich , Middle and Poor ; One can plan and work through their ways for whatever they want ; Result is based on Time and destiny ; The gap between rich and poor is widening because of Corruption at high level and institutional corruption; Who is to blame ; The general public who choose the goons as their leaders ; Good examples they do not prefer ; Dr.Ambedkar who scripted the constitution , Dr.APJ Kalam who rose to become First citizen of india , Vivekananda who built large charitable institution etc ; There are in innumerable true stories like that ; Take armed Forces ; They are ready to make supreme sacrifices for us ; These are true motivational stories; if anyone is lazy and irresponsible , even God can not help ; I myself is a victim of reservation being denied an engineering seat despite remarkable scores ; Reason is upper caste ; Then i have to work on other ways ; Do not blame religion for the problems while the cause remains in Corrupt political systems ; Religion can be used as motivational source for providing confidence to face the world ; One can be an atheistic also provided he is self confident ; I consider Religion as the light that removes the darkness ( ignorance ) in the mind ; Let us light a candle instead of blaming darkness around ; Thanks ; See u

@sterlingtech2714 if you are in Material pursuit , anything is possible ; No moral and ethical standards ; Today Corporate world had destroyed the Joint family for improving upon their sales ; Seperate car , house , Household machines etc ; There are marriages with divorce sooner or later ; We are slowly becoming an individualistic society; In western world Individuals are protected by govt grants ; Here in India it will prove to be a disaster ; When the purpose is NOT serving and NOT Contributing , That society better perish ;

@sterlingtech2714 i am sorry ; I can not condemn it as on date ; Today , Congenial , Lesbian , Gay , Bisexual , Transgender Sex are legalised and sanctioned ; Society is moving fast ;

@SKumar-kp7fq Thats because the Dravidian Parties have huge infrastructure built over time with ill gotten public money ; They throw freebies from public exchequer , exploit the caste and religion and divide hindu votes ; For every 50 voters , there is an incharge who is taken care of ; BJP just started and they are trying to shake it empty handed and Truth and honesty on their sides ; Boss , Let us not get into political arena which is full mud , unethical and immoral ; Let me stay away ; We are here for only learning from each other ;

@SKumar-kp7fq Tamil Nadu will accept anyone if there is money and freebies ; Votes may be available on sale and it can not be brought to light with the available administrative forces ; With all Dravidian talk , a Charismatic Brahmin Lady ruled the State for Four terms putting to shame all anti-brahminical rhetorics ; The political calculations are money , position and other possessions; If BJP is not winning as an opposition to Dravidian parties , no problem for me ; Congress with all its might till not even think of ruling the State despite many stalwarts ; I am sorry , I stop responding to politics; Thanks and Good bye ;
