Following are news clips/articles that I found interesting on the internet.
Gay Criminality - Keeping sympathy for gays seprate from criminal affairs of society
Some time back Census Bureau of India revealed religion based census figures which created hype in the pseudo-secular (aka Congress) and psudo-nationalist (aka BJP) parties and media. Data showed that rate of growths of Muslims is higher than Hindus and so on. Apart from the obvious long-term implication on demographic characteristics of region, one of the common point was non-secularism in having census count based on religion in a secular nation. I am amazed at the naivety of the media now. They seem to claim that religion-based sensor count is unconstitutional and differentiates between different faiths. Religion governs lives of many Indians (and many people across the globe) and it would be no good to deny that. This kind of count doesn't differentiate among religions as the sex based count (number of males/females) doesn't support gender-differentiation, or literacy based count doesn't differentiate in the value of life of literate or illiterate individual. Why do they fail to understand a simple logic, or perhaps it is the "fashion" to be "secular" now-a-days. And then this news...
Family planning is un-Islamic! and more...
