At bold- yup, how can I forget that.. Meanwhile I am a keralite and was really shocked to hear it.Originally posted by: Indulekha00
Yup there are people who still believe in superstitions, though they may be very limited. The proof is there in the shocking murder of a couple of women done for the sake of gaining wealth and better future through sacrificing their life. It was absolutely shocking that it happened in a state like Kerala which has always been proud of having well educated people. Then not many years back something similar happened not far from my residence (Karnataka) where a graduate lured her friend to her home, drugged her and killed her as sacrifice so that some goddess could take possession of the murderer's body giving her super powers! I heard of this from my maid whose sister knew the murderer and learning of something happening in that neighborhood tried to find out the truth by calling the murderer itself. My maid was saying her that murderer had shown a sudden soft spot for her sister too not long back taking her home nd giving her gifts and food. May be dhe was scoping out the eligible candidates for sacrifice!!
Education cant change people's perspective to such things.
