Allah,Oil and Mani Shankar Aiyyar

[Guest guest]

Last week the Economic Times reported in its edit page diary that Mani Shankar Aiyar told the employees of the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation in Chennai on August 12, "I am an atheist. If God does exist I am completely convinced that He must be Allah.Wherever He is worshipped there is oil and gas."

 

Where does one bang his head?

I meant banging my head upon hearing this great logic.

Well Priya, ever heard abt Pseudo-secularism..Man i am totally convinced that if ever India degrades its not because of people but because of these politicians. I dont know, its a fashion among politicians to denounce Hinduism and praise Budhism and Islam. This is to garner votes from muslims and dalits. .As his surname Indicates he is a brahmin but he hasnt changed his surname while beleiving in Allah. Hmm Anyway good one.

anywhere is fine.

 

the most beneficial work, however, would be to educate the people whom to vote. but first they need to know well what is their national interest, and who really supports that intersts. a strong national leadership and also local leaderships is needed.

but still the question is:

why god gave oil to the muslim countries?

 

the answer is in isopanishad.

 

isAvAsya idam sarvam

yat kincha jagatyAm jagat

tena tyaktena bhunjithA

mAgridha asya svid dhanan.

 

what ever we see in this world belogs to god.

just take/use what is allotted to you, and never take anothers allotment.

 

the mesaage is: never steal or be greedy for another's property. be content in what god has given, and pay to get something that you need and god has not given. thus this mantra does not recommend globalization.

 

this mantra has the potency to solve jew-arab, and hindu-muslim and muslim-kafir problem for ever, if only the muslims, and all understand it and liev by it.

 

oil however is seen by all as the strategic commodity.

this means that any country that does not have oil will not be able to win war. and all want to win wars. so all want oil, all want now, and fast and more... till an alterntive technology becomes available.

 

bomber planes are useless unless they have oil. for this reason, some advanced countries want to use up the oil of the rest of the world before they use up their own. they may agree to this plan or not, but in essence they are doing it.

I just heard from someone that what becomes oil under the earth by a scientist. I was told that the bones of so many people, animals etc after a long time get converted to Oil. So, where the number of burials/killings have been more over centuries, there is oil.

 

Neither do I believe this nor disbelieve this.. because as of now I dont know.

[maadhav]

long time ago i had heard that buried dinasors and forests turned into oil.

 

if some can find how the earth got oil, please share.

any way, even when scientists might know how to convert wood or a dead body into oil, the process is not cost effective, just as it is not cost effective to convert mercury into gold.

Who is this joker - Mani Shankar Aiyar anyway?

 

Aiyar some more. If he is an atheist, why he still believe in caste system and use Aiyar in his name?

 

And why could you want to bang your head? Go and bang his on a nearby wall.

Oil is created when substance like remains of dinosaurs, ancient forest and marine lifeforms got buried under the sea floor for millions of years.

 

In that time, those remains get "cooked" by the Earth's pressure to the point that it become black substances known today as Oil.

Oil will prove nemesis for Islam.

 

Easy Money, Religious Arrogance and Intolerance, Medieval Mentality, Brutality are heady mix.

 

A perfectly explosive recipe waiting for the spark from Osama...

[Sephiroth]

Oil will be running out in about 20 - 30 years from now on.

 

And even if it doesn't, God Himself taking direct approach by initializing the Economic Crisis for the people to start looking for alternative fuel and not expect everything to roll around Oil and the Muslim nations alone.

 

Do you think after this Economic Crisis, anyone going to be bothered to rely his economic solely on Oil and Oil price alone?

 

Alternative fuel source is been studied and developed as we speak in Japan, USA and Europe. It is only matter of time before we all use hydrogen fuel cars, solar panels to power our homes and such.

[Guest guest]

It is a catch 22 situation for Western world and Muslim countries.

 

Western world needs OIl for their lifestyle and to run their civilization. They are ready to pay exorbitant price to secure oil!!

 

Muslims need oil for everything as they cannot do anything else. They use same oil money to create problems to western countries.So long they have easy oil money they can hire Indians Engineers to Janitors to do their work!!

 

Many Middle-eastern countries are run by Indian manpower. They day Indians leave their countries grinds to halts.Without Oil money they will be forced to work...and they are not used to working..who has time to work when you have 3-4 wives.

 

 

Whole world's economic, politics is dicatated by Oil and nothing else.

 

In near future there is no alaternative in sight. Without Oil many western countires will collapse. So....as the water goes scarce in a jungle the most powerful animal is the last one to drink......

 

hope it makes sense

Such situation, while is true NOW, could held true in the future also IF there is No God. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Wrong ... I bet by the time the Economic Crisis ends, there will be alternative oil resources such as Hydrogen will be produced.

 

Right now, Japan already produced cars which runs in Hydrogen fuels by splitting water molecules - byproduct is Water alone which give rise to more fuel in the future. Only thing missing now is implementation of such procedure as in changing the car's engine to a hydrogen-fueled engines.

 

In Malaysia also, Biopetrol is introduced and the government is planning to slowly change the usage of regular petrol to biopetrol (cleaner and easier to make by ALL countries) in couple of years. When one (or two) nation in Asia changes, the change will slowly sweep to other nations and will become permanent.

 

Don't think God is there just to watch you silently. He can do thinks you couldn't understand now (like Katrina and Tsunami) but in long run, His plans will come to surface, and most people calls it good move by humans (while forgetting God's role in it).

Hari OM:

 

 

there are two theories (atleast) for origin of oil:-

 

One is the dead forest, animals (in general the carbon reamins of dead) is buried in earth and due to high pressure and temperature turns into Petroleum (oil)

 

Another theory is that oil flows the inner mantle to outer mantle by some strange means , search for "Thompson Gold" in net and you can read this theory.

 

While the first theory says oil reserves would peak in another 20-30 years ( after which the supply will start lagging the demand what ever we do) with the current rate of consumption , the second theory says it will not run out in the near future.

 

Both the theories have some "proofs" and "missing links".

 

Thanks,
