ANKVAR MORIECHEM DUKH (Lyrics)

I
Sonvsarant patki ami, torui axetanv bhogunk sukh
Sonsinozo konnanchean matui pottak hea laglear bukh

Kiteak upkarta sonvsar, chintlear Ankvar Moriechem dukh

Chorus
Putak tichea marit velo dongrar tea judevanim

Kitem bhoglenam zait pollovn putak toplolo tea bhaleanim

II
Kossolich chukh nastannam Jezuk kelo guneanvkari

Chorus

Sonvsarant assosor mog korunk Igroz Mathecho
Jezucho mog korun cholomiea rosto bhavartacho
Ani ghevumiea vantto Saibinnimche dukhicho

Arguing about Arguing: Go(a)ne Cases

-by gasper crasto / Kuwait

If you accuse someone of accusing someone what exactly are you doing?

For what it's worth, this question sprang to my mind on examining many Goan forums in recent months, primarily the Goanet, www.goa-world.com/ Gulf-Goans Newsletters, http://penpricks.blogspot.com/ (an anonymous blog critiquing the Goan media) and http://goa-kranti.blogspot.com/

Sometime back, a close friend of mine pointed out to me that I did something wrong in one of my articles. Disgruntled, I objected: “I can’t believe you are blaming me!”

I could respond back with fiery recriminations. But if I am blaming someone for blaming someone I might as well blame myself of blaming someone for blaming someone. And so on..

As we read editorials, articles about governments, organizations and individuals that are intolerant of any opposition, when we read about anything written by ‘ordinary’ and ‘unknown’ individuals, when we hear of caste or religious intolerance, or worse, we should learn to be good and brave: We must tolerate intolerance. That’s the way we are taught. Be not intolerant of intolerance.

In most Goan cases, it is observed that an accusation can give birth to itself in the following (non)sense:

An arbitrary statement by person ‘A’ is heard by person ‘B’ as an accusation (person ‘A’ doesn’t intend to accuse anyone and nobody knows why person ‘B’ might hear an accusation in a statement which he heard as a joke 99 times before. Well, maybe he did not have a good breakfast that day. Nobody knows even if person ‘B’ really heard an accusation but to person ‘A’ it seems as if..)

Person ‘B’ now makes an illogical statement maybe slightly unnerved or maybe just neutral but to person ‘A’ it sounds unnerved (in fact, person ‘B’ does not intend to accuse anyone. But it might as well just happen to him that he sounds a bit accusing, though he wouldn’t like it). Now, obviously, person ‘A’ does hear an accusation. And ta-taa: the accusation is everywhere though it was not there before, not really, because no one wanted to accuse anyone. But somehow everyone felt accused.

Useful Debates or Personal Attacks?

Debate is an essential part of our culture. Mostly, members of opposing communities/profession always wish to have their viewpoints included on the net. But many contributors often do not agree on the content of others. Many have the tendency to accuse others or each other. This often leads to ‘personal’ attacks leaving aside the subject of discussion. And around and around the argument goes, irony abounds, and everyone is now only arguing about arguing.

As a matter of polite and effective discourse, articles/comments should not be personalized but directed at ‘content’ and ‘actions’ rather than people. Posting personal attacks or defamation without verifying the factual truth is harmful to the community and to the publishers’ relationship with it. Attacking, harassing, or violating the privacy of any person should not be permitted. Such attacks can be regarded as aggravating factors by administrators.

..How about just talking with the persons rather than allowing it to get to the stage of an "argument?" Well, some people, as popular Goan writer Veronica Fernandes often puts it in his articles, don’t have marbles to question or call upon a person and discuss things directly.

Usually, people who get loud and continue to argue and go on and on are not getting back what they are wanting - like a discussion, or resolution, or attention even. I think it might be more productive to ask what they want from you, or just quietly and patiently let them talk and listen to them, and do not react back in an argumentative voice. It is obvious that these people have a habit of accusing others for their own misfortunes. And so much so, they prove to be buffoons -- writing themselves out of reputation when nobody else can do it.

Epictetus, the Greek philosopher wrote: “To accuse others for one’s own misfortunes is a sign of want of education.”

All of this, of course, accomplishes exactly nothing but to demonstrate the thin skin behind cockroach brain of these individuals and their mouse mindset, and act as a time waster.

Well, some readers may find my points weird, some witty, some ridiculous, and it won’t be long before rivals believing this write-up is being directed towards them, begin speculating the size of my dick.

Well, in our midst, an unfortunate few, hooked on the futile thrill of online debate, devote their lives to its cause. They roam the internet, actively seeking out viewpoints they disagree with, or squat on message blogs and groups, whining, needling, sneering, over-analyzing each new proclamation - joylessly fiddling, like unhappy gorillas doomed to pick lice from one another's fur for all eternity...

Let’s hear out from them on this article..!

Silence is very loud indeed!

The way Christians are being tormented, humiliated and harassed all over India makes one doubt the assurances given in the Constitution. Incidents like these had never happened in the past 52 years of independence,in such an organised manner.

Persecution is not new to Christianity and the Christians have well been motivated by their master to maintain their integrity amidst adversity. Posterity and international community will judge the working of democracy in India by the way the minorities are being treated here.

Every religion preaches the message of love and anyone who is truly religious will not stoop to such cowardly criminal attacks. It is high time the Centre acted positively and created a sense of security amongst the Christians. We, as a nation, should rise to the occasion and condemn such acts of violence no matter against whom they are committed.

It is not known why in a country which boasts of tolerance,such acts of terrorism are unleashed. Except pious statements issued from time to time both by the State and Central Governments nothing concrete has been done.

Several temples are being built in the U.S. and other parts of the world because Hinduism has much to offer. The people of the West are not feeling threatened or getting upset by the Hindu culture spreading with force. It is sad that Hinduism and India are now being discredited in the world by the unchecked hate campaign in India.

Almost no conversion from the dalits and the tribals to Christianity could have happened if only these Hindutva's negative elements had turned their attention to the still prevalent denial of human rights to these sections and had done something to give them some dignity.

We feel sad that the leaders of the government,religious leaders (of all faiths) and respected Hindu citizens in India and abroad are not calling upon the forces behind, which are also maligning the name of Mahatma Gandhiji, to disist from their hate campaign.

Their silence is very loud indeed.
