HITCHEN's KITCHEN

************************************

This is bloody outrageous. Both the author and the reader seem to b psychopaths, and in my opinion, criticizing because there might an itch or a "Hitch" active somewhere, just for the sake of criticizing.

And even if She's done everything for money or popularity, LET IT BE. We have seen enough of the humanoid sub-species- the 'His/Her Holiness, His Holy Scrupules ('Scriptures' for a group with a lot of common things), His Face and The Intent that lies behind, and The Holy Halo. We know our level of 'Vedic Tolerance', and how much we can take without making a single sound,(at least the Vocal type)...

Let's not bother about efforts at posthumous epitomisation of those who, we (some of us) believe and preach, might have had Hell to be the possible destination of their post-mortem soulless journey.

I have seen Sister Teresa cleaning faeces ('shit' oops!-- 'Crap' for the urbane and the metropolitan), vomitus ('Puke' for the same demographic segment) , pus, infected blood & a range of discharges from a range of human orifices (of which many of us wouldn't be able to tolerate the stench, let alone touch) with a compassionate smile, with a Prayer, and with words of Comfort that make us believe.

So, for all the commandeering and wangles, the dubious tyranny of those she knew, and the possible 'blood donations' she might have managed (according to this personified encyclopedia that reports about the ostentations), I, as an Indian, shall continue to respect the Mother if I truly believe that she might saved and shaped the life of even only One sick leper child, of a much lesser god.

We silently celebrate brutal deaths, rapes, assassinations with consummate ease over our morning coffee. Let's tolerate an eventual birth, born out of destiny's folly. Say what -- we could even politicise this blasphemous act to take over the parliament? ? I see hungry faces.. Okay..I don't know what's cooking in Hitchen's Kitchen so I throw this piece of bread into the crowd called You. Watching this Reality Show is a salivating prospect..
