A small boy in Kerala wrote 'Mathamillya' in an application form in school when asked about his religion.This word in Malayalam would mean Matham(Religion), Illya(Does not exist).
Did that mean that it was ignorance that made him write such a thing? He comes from a family where they do follow a religion and so he is definitely aware of what it is to belong to a certain community. He is around 12years, and his interest lies in poetry..topic isn't about nature or his childhood but he writes poems about how mankind is caught in many webs created by themselves.
This boy is of the opinion that there can be a beginning, religion need not be used to discriminate one from another. He goes onto say, following a religion should not be a criteria for admissions in school and so he does not wish to speak about it in school where everyone is treated equal. Point taken....

Hey...
Good idea from the boy....
The nation should be matured enough to accept the idea...
When I ask my self the answer is "No"
Any answer from your side?
You are right Tarik, our nation might not be ready to accept the point because we are entangled in all the castes, religions and various other factors for discrimination.
Well there can always be a beginning and we should appreciate that lil one's thought :)
It would make one hell of a name for a school.
