DR.Hunter:
An excellent response. You have upheld Dravidian culture Tamil Nadu education, education from your parents, your command of language. A beacon light that all Dravidians should admire.

Karunanithi 3 or 4 wives. His son publicly cliamed that he raped a woman. Dravida SEX stories have no limits.
Karunanithi has no moral right whatsoever to talk on Kannagi while he involved in degrading women.
Further Kannagi was celebrated by MALAYALEES and not by TAMILS.
Sinhala Gajabahu venerated Kannagi as Pathini Deiyo.
But Tamils try to make political advantage out of Kannagi.
Remember JJ made any children to use their mothers intials. This is something remarkable. All western countries allow the usage of the mother's initials.

U should not argue with "rationalists" (read only dravidians) & their folk :
1. They will say that "RAMA" did not exist, but Ravana is a dravidian.
2. They will not explain how kannagi was able to burn madurai single handedly ; they will criticize (hindu) puranas, if such things happen.
3. They will call themselves periyar followers conveniently forgetting that periyar was extremely critical of kannagi.
4. They will criticize draupadi for having 5 husbands, but the 1st rationalist marriage that periyar presided over was a man marrying 2 women.
If anyone points these things, the "dravidians" & their followers will say things like "parpaan thimir", "tamizh adimaiyagivittadhu" etc. etc..
The only response they have is bad mouthing brahmins. They will NEVER answer questions using their paghutharivu (which they claim only they have & use).
It is clear that this forum is used by them only to spite brahmins & nothing else.

//Also you can never justify Kannagi's request to the fire-god that Brahmins should be spared while Madurai was burned//
By Brahmins, kannagi meant the andhanars(priests). Priests, in all cultures , are given a certain respect in every society. It is the priests who tend to the temples and the fires of the gods. They are very highly respcted, giving spiritual advice to the common me and whether they are good or not is just exacty the sanme with any other individual. The priests in the story, I suppose, must be pure men, who wouldn't even hurt a fly. there is a diffrence betwen them and the common man( as if in males).

Well said. Really, sometimes, some people's minds cannot be at peace without typing a little backbiting
