I am not religious in the traditional sense of the word, but I am unwilling to dismiss the big role that religion plays in shaping our perceptions of good and bad, right and wrong.<BR/><BR/>This is separate from the issue of commercialisation. Downloading ringtones with om-namah-shivaya can't help the person who doesn't have the essence of shiva in his or her heart, and we all know that.<BR/><BR/>- DeepaDeepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076685280358127119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430743085868957237.post-91683489669140066002008-09-16T14:29:00.000+05:302008-09-16T14:29:00.000+05:30... was looking for an academic piece about the in...... was looking for an academic piece about the interface of religion and technology but landed at your blog. very perceptive and readable.. however, it leaves me with mixed feelings. you don't seem to take a clear position on, which for want of an appropriate term, i would call commercialization of religion. <BR/> i really don't have problems with people being religious. what irritates me is that this surge of faith has not done any good to us as a society.i find most of the religious persons cocooned in their petty world and criminally apathetic to what goes around them.what good a religion is if it does not make us kind and considerate about our fellow beings?<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/>NareshAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430743085868957237.post-33758860109792246222008-05-05T21:13:00.000+05:302008-05-05T21:13:00.000+05:30Terrific information.... was stunned to learn of t...Terrific information.... was stunned to learn of the e-services offered on the religious perspective.<BR/><BR/>Ringtones, wallpapers, pujas, darshans, cross between Disneyland and temple... phew.<BR/><BR/>technology & religion marrying and producing interesting e-offspring is okay... but feverishly praying to the God appearing in the monitor...... to never allow technology to extend and interfere with the nature's methodologies...!!!!Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00469394323819969371noreply@blogger.com
