we can go together to get our heads examined😆  I sometimes wonder why my threshold for putting up with non-sense is way higher than many around me😆 

Yes I think you are a deviant too.

I meant "how hard is it GET" 😆  Apparently, it's not very hard to miss it 😆

Now I'm not a psychiatrist so I won't be making any claims on my mental health. However, if you are willing to pay, I will be more than happy to have my head examined with a psychiatrist of your choice to determine if there is something abnormal or deviant in my thought process.

although I'm more or less of an atheist, I believe that it's OK to have religious lyrics in songs because it shows secularism(not sure if that's a word) in India.

Your posts leave others speechless. People just can't argue with you back because you hypnotize them with your words. If the ability to silence others is a form of deviance, then people may as well start getting attracted to diseases / deformities. 😆

But I don't like it when you flaunt yourself, albeit in an indirect way. 😉

POH ji. Maska polish ke liye SRGMP main thread hain. 😛

I don't mind them at all.  It doesn't get any worst than folks named after gods and godesses getting yelled at for something wrong.  One of our friends named their son Shiv.  Now, this Shiv is a real naughty kid.  We usually hear the parents go - Shiv, bahut pityega....nalayak Shiv, idher aa.........if that is acceptable then what's the problem with the lyrics?

Naah.  It does not 😆  Mostly the religious references are space fillers - they gel with the music and are hummable. 

Yeah, well there's always something hidden in songs and everything for that reason, whether they mean to or not. For example, "The Wizard of Oz" was an allegory for the Great Depression. So, I think they also show secularism(again not sure if that's a word) within India. And yeah, they also sre space filters😳. Take for example the "Bhool Bhulaiya" title song, where it says "Hare Ram, Hare Ram, Hare Krishna...." but in the same movie, the song "Allah Hafiz" proves what I'm saying.

I don't understand why Allah is used in Bollywood songs don't mix our God into the songs I don't like it one bit
