Well, then you either live among hypocrites or you think everyone is "extremely rude". Saying something bad about someone is quite often simply TRUE. It's rude or even extremely rude only sometimes. And whether it is depends on what what and how you said. If you cannot ever say anything bad about or to anyone, you have to lie about half of the time.

And regarding the next paragraph ... no that would not be racism. That would be experience. The original poster did sound like one of the bunch of Indians of late. No one said all Indians are stupid or lazy, but we've had quite a few that are apparently both lately so assuming another stupid or lazy poster is also an Indian is quite understandable. Though in the current politically correct world banned.

And not only is it unclear what did those monks agree with, but more importantly there were only five of them.
