www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9w-xJfSOyc&feature=shareSurprising that a govt with secular credentials will release a documentary on jesus's life in kashmir. Is there any credence to this? I don't even know if he existed in the first place . Hopefully, he did but not in the same way as paul wanted him to exist. They do have some manuscripts out there. What do you make of this video nitai ji? Perhaps we are the same about sri chaitanya or krsna. Anyway, I am surprised to see that many intelligent people feel that 9/11 was an inside job. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwZ-vIaW6Bc Chomsky uses plain common sense on this issue to shut the conspiracy theorists. Religious people especially like conspiracy theories. Lack of evidence or loopholes in evidence are seen as conspiracy theories. Obviously, there will be loopholes after an event, but you don't use a conspiracy theory to explain events just because a well established theory has some loop-holes. I see this trend very prominent in religious circles.

Thanks for posting the Kashmir video. I have started watching and will finish when I have time; it's an hour length.
Kashmir looks so beautiful. Makes me want to see the place. How's the political situation in Kashmir?
About religious people being the no.1 believer in conspiracy theory. Unless you can back up with statistics or study your assertion, I think you should't make sweeping generalization.

I see this trend very prominent in religious circles. I don't think there is any truth to it. It is most likely a case of mistaken identity or an opportunistic effort to make money. Just look at the books written in support of it. There is to my knowledge no authentic text that supports this idea. The only text that places Jesus in India is the Aquarian Gospel of Jesus which is the lal-lal production of some Theosophist at the end of the 19th century. it is based on the "akashic" record. By the way there is a movie in production of the Aquarian Gospel.
