I am sure the forum Gandhi will appreciate this post 
The Nasrani journey to prosperity has a touch of the Damascene about it

The Article wrote:The willingness to sacrifice bits of self-identity in order to better assimilate into the whole. As an anti-scriptural pithyism perhaps purports to illustrate: a Syrian will marry a tribal princess and readily shed his clothes to become the chief when she inherits the throne.
Just goes to show how far a natural talent at ingratiation, opportunism and native Brahmin cunning can take a community that is otherwise disadvantaged by a rather poor genetic makeup considering how the forefathers of today's Syrian Christians must have been the most gullible in that society, to have converted to an entirely unknown, unheard of religion, presumably with little or no economic benefit and largely on the basis of some evangelist's say-so that doing so would redeem their souls from eternal damnation.
The other takeaway is that a supportive society can really help disadvantaged sections overcome historical handicaps and shine. I hope this article persuades you to be more kindly to Vee Unkil, to excuse his various shortcomings and encourage him to realize his true potential.

Read any article and you'll find some douchebag proclaiming their gene's infallibility...for instance this fukwit, presumably Brahmin from his name, claims these Thomas's children rose to the top due to 'Brahmin gene' whatever that is...never mind that Brahmins historically could never till the land, do business in any organized way, weren't entrepreneurial..
Syrian christians need to pat themselves and thank God
if not 'Thoma' for their rise to top. It was in their brahmin gene
for most of them if not all, are converted brahmins
a shrewed and enterprising community.

I will not tolerate this tirade against the Children of Thoma - who are superior in everyway to all others.
We should all emulate the Syrian Christians in brilliance (and iSlamic brethren in their "bravery").
