What I wanted to say is that the conventional system of castes was
rejected by hindu scriptures thousands of years ago; the fact, that
this system still exists, is merely a practical problem that needs to
be solved, and I was _not_ talking about that. I of course agree that
the Indian varna/yati system is totally wrong and that it needs to be
reformed. 

What is "H Bkta" for, "Hari Bhakta"?
