RE: [mukto-mona] Re: If State language, why not state religion?Anonta Bijay Das?

WRT: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mukto-mona/message/46664

I am sorry as I was unable to make you understand my point of view. By yours, language can never be synonymous to religion.
But, if u permit me to explain , then, I want to say that the reason of my placing the two themes in the same field was none but their being the inseparable relation with the culture of a nation. Even in this twenty first century, when most of the social scientist all over the world are agreed that religions are just man-imagined faiths, still no one can deny the important role of religion in a nation's culture.
Hence, we observe, the declaration on every US dollar "IN GOD WE TRUST", although US is a secular country. No Hindi film starts without showing a DEVI (sorry , I can't mention her name), at the very beginning of the film, whereas India is the largest democratic and secular country in the world, as far as I know. Ain't I right?
All my efforts were to share the theme with the known persons and to acquire information. becuase, information provides knowledge and power.

//In all the religions, men are schooled as rulers and women and children, who have never been given a choice, are schooled as followers. All humans know is the religion in which they were raised. They developin the culture and they have no idea another life is possible.//

A strong point of view indeed.
Now, let me differ in a small extent.
Having birth in a strict and practising Muslim family, we find lots of people leaving their faiths just like rubbish things. On the other hand, having birth in the conservative catholic family , a remarkable number of people are converting themselves into Muslim or Buddhist faith. and this rate of convertion is increasing day by day.
Europe and US is facing the both senerio more than any other continent of the world as far as I know.
Do you think that if majority people of a country take their identity by their religion without facing any type of pressure and schooling from childhood, and if they want to be identified nationally by their religious identiy, then a state religion will be constitutionally legal?
What if modern democracy supports it?

Last of all, being a student of IT(Engineering) and being one of the youngest members of the group, I am still under the process of learning the basic principles of Politics, Economics and political Sciences. Hence, Questions from various topics can be risen from from my mind , each of which cannot be thrown after proper homework. So, please, don't discourage me to ask and discuss. I think , its my right to ask. Question (WHY & HOW) is the mother of all inventions, isn't it?
