I wish and pray this should not happen anywhere in the world.Lord please protect us from evil.

Guess who ! :p said...

i am an oriya but i studied in a christian school for 5 years in orissa and i do love my schools and give a lot of respect to christians . lord knows the reason why the hindus of my homeland always have disputes with christians.

oh!god plz forgive the people who always discriminate among castes.

though i am a hindu and even an oriya and orissa is my homeland but i realy hate those who always attack on the people of other castes.if the whole orissa is 2 one side and only a few christians r 2 d other i'll go 2 them because all r the citizens of india and everybody has equal rights 2 follw what religion they like and however they want 2 live.

i wish this world would always live in peace without any disputes
