Current Medical Education Capitation fee for entry into a church-run institution in Kerala is stated to be Rs.25 to 35 lakhs for resident and non-resident Indians under Management quota. We cannot complain of fleecing by Medical profession as they are entitled to recover their investment in education? Who we will identify as primary culprits? It pains that the fleecing is done by ordained High Priests of Churches established in the name of Jesus Christ who drove away traders from the Church premises. 55 years ago my father, a devoted Christian priest approached our Bishop for a School teacher’s job for me and an admission in the Training College for my sister under his Management. He demanded a hefty sum of Rs.2000/- for the Teacher’s job and a capitation fee of Rs.1500/- for Training College entry. We lost as my father was poorly paid by the Church. While my father remained loyal to the church till his death, I have developed absolute contempt for these shylocks in holy robes.

And so you will throw out the baby with the bath water. If and that is IF because you used the term Bishop, gave you any of the baby to begin with.
I think He gave a lot of tradition, very little Bible, except to substantiate His position.
Sounds as if the old grab your money operation was in operation.
When they talk of Money, a bell should go off in your head. WARNING WARNING.
Is it Jesus Christ at a price?
No price for me, He paid my way.
Given that they taught you anything about Jesus except use His name once in a while.
How about the Bible, did they promote reading it? I'll bet not.

Since we are discussing rilgion and spirituality in this column, we need to understand one thing very clearly and that is, that God has showered equal blessings on all of us. If that is not true, God is not worth it's name. But seeing the disparities prevailng in this world, it does look to us that those who are rich and influential are more blessed than others,
God has created us not for indulging in materialistic pleasures. He has created us as human body form, to realise our true aim. This facility, He has given in equal measure to all the human beings.
So we should not while away our precious time in finding fault with people or systems, which lure us to the material obsessions. That will give us the peace of mind, and we will start living happily and perhaps take a step or two towards reaching our goal.
