“கேள்விக்கென்ன பதில்” – Exclusive Interview with Umashankar IAS

Bravo, bro! Bravo! 

I admire his courage of conviction. This guy is truly a Christian, Indian AND a public servant. I like him. . . 

But I do have some serious reservations & objections about his theology. 
What would someone like Stanley Hauerwas say to this? Political theology . . . 

The interviewer was quite stupid & aggressive in many instances! Not a very professional journalistic attitude . . . 

‘The Social Network’ movie review (4/5 – Hit!)

Can capitalism and friendship go together?
How are individual ambition and social welfare related?

Compare with the movie “Steve Jobs”
Compare with Bill Gates too.

“I’m not a bad guy.
– I know that.”

“You’re not an asshole, Mark.
You’re just trying so hard to be.”

Hmmm… I can relate to this guy. Genius, lonely, awkward, guilty, ruthless……
But I do think he’s a sociopath (unlike me, of course!)

Damn good directing, acting and music – bordering on great!

I couldn’t agree more!

This principle could apply in other contexts like good governance & corporate business ethics too. Every individual, no matter how lowly, who is part of a system, has some degree of responsibility for improving the quality & efficiency of the whole.

Could we bend the rules a little, to maximize citizen convenience, without compromising safety??
