Temple thieves continued to tease the city police with a break-in at yet another place of worship at Malakpet in the wee hours of Tuesday.
Coming close on the heels of temple thefts at Lal Darwaza, Shamshabad, Golnaka and Uppuguda, and in the context of communal incidents at Kulsumpura, Musheerabad and Hafizpet, it is giving the heebie-jeebies to the police and people in the Old City of Hyderabad.

Temple is a place of Business, that too Tax free. There is No GOD there. If GOD is really there, nothing can ever get stolen! Fellows build Temples to make money from gullible people. How that money comes into Temple is how it will go. Temple is same as Church or Mosque, pure Business. It is all about the Collection Box, nothing else. People are foolish to go and give their money to Temples. Instead go and give to Poor people. Donate to poor kids for their education. That way atleast society will improve. If you give money to Temples, it will be swallowed( they say 'Swaha' and Gobble the Dabu!). Instead give money to the poor suffering kids and improve society!

Right temple is pure business.. that way the black money is being utilized.. who ever offers money now-a-days in temples are having corrupt money, loot money or black money.. at least they are offering say 1 to 5% of their loot money for this we must appreciate ... what I say who ever lives honestly and not corrupt please do not offer any thing at Temples not even give it to poor people.. by giving money to poor people they will never learn to live.. and they become beggars only... already our political parties made lot of beggar communities that is voting banks.. so please donate only when the taker is really in need ... we must encorage construction of temples ... because they generate employment or business or soul pleasement ... etc., due to temples at least some of the stolen money coming into economy for that we need temples

God will not stay in Temples... Jeevamay Devudu.. our Life is God .. so one need not confuse.. that God only stays in a Temple ....if Temple are stolen do no worry.. it is built on stolen money... and another fellow has stolen the same ... all these acts happen with the consent of the God only ... so need not worry ... another fellow with corrupt money will come and for his conscious happiness sake he will re-erect the temple or recoup the stolen things
