Maybe energy already existed since eternity. Living beings are powerless against the might of the universe. Against the sheer size of it. All our laws will vanish with us if even one asteroid of significant size hit us. There is no inherent meaning to all this. We have to spread across the...

Discussion on faith is banned here mainly because:- 1. An in depth discussion of faiths with an intelligent, literate population will create more atheists. Similar to people who study comparative religion. 2. Debates can bring out the weaknesses of the faiths, which feels like an insult to the...

Inter religious marriages number something like a few thousands in the country. Inter caste marriages are almost every other love marriage- much more common. Probably numbering in the millions.

70-80 percent of the country is backwards, and lives in medieval times. Takes time to uproot faith.

We have to modernize these areas.

Their tea sucks. Snacks are decent at chaayos. Chai point is only good for noodles. Maybe, lol. I like reading a magazine over coffee. It is a good place for that.

Cold brew black. The only good black coffee in the country, afaik. Show me an alternative. I hate milk in my coffee. Though this one is tolerable. Had a few in my undergrad days. No other good options. Been in all the metros...

Americans bring a lot of expertise with them, not just paper money. Hell, the best coffee I get in India is at Starbucks.

Already have it. Free food, free healthcare. A small chunk also get free accommodation. Free stuff isn't that great in a poor country, but it's there.

It's hot in most of India, most of the year. I'm sure temperature plays a part.

It is hard to meet a person who doesn't bath daily in India. Just not part of the culture. Now, if someone doesn't have a home, it's different.

Traditional culture tend to be backward and regressive. It is losing its grip with time and education. Unlike China, we can't force people to be educated. We can't force them to stop most of their backwards practices either. A big chunk of our elite and younger generation is of a scientific...

Yeah... We fell behind in education. We will get respect when we deserve it. A matter of time.

Not switching to plant based food unless there is extensive research on how it affects physical/mental growth vs animal products.

There are some backward laws in some parts of India. But beef is sold openly even in Yogi's UP. I have had korma, nihari, etc at roadside dhabas. No idea if it's cow or buffalo, though.

Yeah.. The greenhouse effect could be significant. Would need to read more research into that.

Is that a genuine problem?

The army. An army loyal to the state can crush the most powerful of dissidents.

Nahari and Changezi are some of the best foods you will find in Delhi. Bangalore and Hyderabad, Kerala have a lot of varieties in their curries, and mind blowing biryanis. Food so perfect, you won't expect better.
