First and foremost I do not hate religion or thoughs that have a faith they adhere to. A thread in the religous forums was deleted for the information I'm about to post, it is not intended to cause anger or debate but should none the less be made aware of as people read the pretty words religion comes up with, I think people should also see the tears behind all the prettiness.
I watched a movie not knowing it's theme it was called Maya

MOVIE - DRAMA - MAYA
This powerful coming of age story finds 12-year-old Maya enjoying a playful and mischievous relationship with her "partner in crime" cousin Sanjay, until the day she first menstruates and is then subject to a much anticipated "prayer ceremony", which actually involves a ritual, brutal rape by the local priest and his assistants. Director Dingvijay Singh maintains that 5,000 to 15,000 girls are still subject to this outlawed practice, which persists under a veil of religious sanction and secrecy. Stars Anant Nag, Mita Vasisht and Nitya Shetty. (From India, in Hindi, English subtitles). (2001) MA (V,S,L) (Rpt) WS
I was shocked by the movie and yes I do feel anger towards thoughts whom I see using religion to justify their lust or to cause harm to others in the name of religion.
After reading the Hunduism thread now deleted I saw many praising the nice words I felt people should see the other side of this and I guess most religions so I posted this link

Coming under attack I elaborated by posting about the movie Maya well you know the out come so here it is in astral chat.
Two links that have ruffled one member and one moderator enough to delete the Hinduism thread.
I feel it should be public knowledge open for viewing and comment not hinden in preference of pretty words only. This is the reality behind many religions. Read the links watch the movie open your eyes and heart to thoughs that suffer because of religion. Being aware of both sides to religion can't be wrong IMO.
Thank you for reading this post just by knowing about it you are helping.
