LOL ! He who does not allow his miracles to be investigated is a crook,

he who does not have the courage to investigate a miracle is gullible,

and he who is prepared to believe without verification is a fool.

India has the largest middle class by per cent population in the entire world, yet they are stuck in the dark ages why?

If you have proffesional scientists and scientist for the military believing this shit, you don't really have an intellectual elite, you have a pseudo intellectual elite.

Are Indians just more stupid than people in the west?

I'm Indian and I find this embarrassing.

there saying that he was observed once before in 2003 in sterling hospital and exposing the loopholes like he was allowed to take a sunbath, devoters were allowed to go to him, and he kept moving from the view of the cctv

It's been confirmed that he could do this for a while, but that while maybe a few days......70 years or even in this study, a few weeks, will be too much......He also is alleged to have passed no urine or stool during the week, which maybe is how slow his metabolism is.......or he's faking in during key scenes.

Any chance of some subtitles? The blue rectangles are not exactly self-explanatory. Regardless, thanks for your tireless efforts standing up for rationality in India! I sleep better at night knowing there is at least one consistent voice for sanity it a bafflingly credulous world.

@SuperTwit - Oh. No. Westerners are equally stupid, if you think of some their superstions. I am from Sri Lanka. And Sri Lankans are no better!
