Where are the Juan Edghills to answer to Dev’s travesty
Dear Editor,
Thank you for your comments on Ravi Dev’s letter. I wish you allow my reply to show my disdain.
While giving you and readers a lesson in the use of wheat flour in Hindu ceremonies, Dev tried his hand at his evil missive. My belief is that he intentionally seeks out opportunities to ‘liberate’ his mind. Some of us Christians/Africans, know very well that wheat and many other grains were grown and milled into flour in the Indian sub-continent long before the Christian era. Take it for what it is, Indians were eating wheat before Africans, so it seems to be a ‘right’. Editor, you made very pertinent observations to moot Dev’s contentions and I was heartened that his one sided comments were exposed.
For Bisram, it was OK for Hindus not to use wheat flour for a period, due to shortage because of WWII but, not by Burnham in response to a political situation and his misguided belief of national self-sustainability and self-sufficiency. Burnham’s banning of flour was likened to genocide in Africa etc. Utter hogwash from an infantile mind corrupted by hate. Burnham was wrong to ban wheat flour. It made criminals of some people who came from Georgetown to Crabwood Creek to buy smuggled flour and millionaires of those in CWC and on the Corentyne who smuggled it from Suriname.
However, this does not give Dev the right to use subtle innuendos about a religion which talks about allowing souls of followers to be ‘saved’ as opposed to one of which followers’ souls are ‘liberated’.
Dev’s subtle use of the word ‘liberate’ to describe Hinduism shows he is trying to paint Hinduism as a superior ‘belief’. Well I guess he doesn’t know his Hinduism principle well because he clearly as a Hindu has a mind that reeks of a cesspool of filth, maybe a follower of the evil Rawan.
I hope he knows the lesson of Rawan well and does not literally befall in the same manner. For a supposedly bright Indian like Dev, Bisram is a quack, talking about banning wheat flower is genocide, this is of evil intent by Dev. He wants to move the discussion, his style of argument when he lacks reason, from who as a people are superior to who has a superior religious belief. Superior religion and superior people! And since religion forms the foundation of ‘culture’ as we know it, then he is blatantly telling us that Hindus are superior to Christians and therefore it did not matter that Christians also suffered from the banning of wheat flour by Burnham.
These guys are ingenious. In the context of Christianity, ‘saved’ means to liberate, to free believers of the sins (of people like Dev and Bisram), that their minds do not turn green and enslave them into ignorance and bigotry, but to know when right is right and wrong is wrong and go out and fight people like Burnham so that people like Dev and Bisram can remain silent today when Jagdeo is doing worse than Burnham not only to Africans but also Indians.
Dev, the Indian supremo knows this but is not ‘saved’ to appreciate the truth in a liberated mind. He may be forgiven for only if he knows Jesus can he be saved and truly liberated in mind, body and soul. Where are the Juan Edghills to answer to Dev’s travesty.
Yours sincerely,
Evan Thomas
