Taslima Nasreen insults Mary, says Jesus' mom was not virgin

December 25, 2015

taslimaNew Delhi, Dec 25: Known for her controversial writings, noted Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen stirred up the hornet's nest when she said that 'Jesus was no God's son'.

Replying to a query on Twitter about what is wrong in celebrating Christmas, Taslima wrote, “I can't celebrate lies. Jesus's mom was not virgin and he was no God's son.”

It is not an insult to say that Jesus's mother was not a virgin when she gave birth to him. My mother was not a virgin when she gave birth to me. She was a respectable married woman. That is likely to have been the case with Mary too - that she was married to her husband Joseph, had sex with him and in due course produced a baby. It is the general way of things. Women who give birth to babies are not virgins. They have had sex with someone, who is the father of their child. Only two of the four gospels say anything about Mary becoming pregnant without having sex, and they tell very different stories from each other. These detailed stories are, I believe, invented to fit in with somes verses in the book of Isaiah, which were assumed in Jesus's day to be a prophecy of the Messiah, though they were in reality no such thing and referred to a young woman (not a virgin) giving birth to a baby in Isaiah's own time.

You commentators who want to prevent Taslima from voicing her opinions publicly should be ashamed of yourselves. You are full of hate and fear. How does it hurt you that a woman says that she does not agree with what you believe? Do you think that the creator and sustainer of the universe in whom you believe is so weak and defenceless that he needs people like you to protect him from someone saying that some story told about him is not true? You are not defending Jesus's mother from insult. You are not defending God from insult. You are simply trying to defend the beliefs that you have been brought up with from being questioned. Why shouldn't they be questioned? Why should they be accepted unquestioningly? Perhaps they are incorrect. If they are incorrect, don't you want to know it?

Why somebody asking which religion she belongs. Is it compulsory to believe any religion?
There was no adam as described in religion book. Man has been evolved by evolution.

Bengaluru, Jul 11: Karantaka Congress chief DK Shivakumar on Friday raised questions over claims that Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power Project Madhya Pradesh was "largest in Asia" and said a 2000 MW had been built in the state.

"BJP central government is claiming today that it inaugurated Asia's largest solar plant of 750 MW at Rewa, MP. What then is the 2000 MW Solar Plant in Pavagada, Karnataka which was built in just 3 years by Karnataka Congress government and has been operational since 2018?" Shivakumar said in a tweet.

The Congress leader further said that the most unique thing about the solar project set up in Karnataka was that the farmers were being paid yearly rents for the land upon which it was constructed as it had been leased and not purchased from them, helping them retain ownership.

"The unique thing about the 2000 MW Pavagada Mega Solar Park was that not a single acre of land was acquired from the farmers. All 13,000 acres have been leased from the farmers who are being given yearly rent. Karnataka model of renewable energy was accepted as the best in India," he said.

"Union power minister must answer as to how the Central Government can claim that the Rewa Solar Park (750 MW) opened today is Asia's largest when clearly the Pavagada Park in Karnataka is much larger (2000 MW) and was opened two years back!" he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi dedicated Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power Project to the nation on Friday.
