There has been too much debate on whether man should be allowed to create life. The popular view is that man shouldn’t obtrude in god’s matters. The mainstream sentiment is that life is god’s personal demesne and should be </atom:summary><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Lifeatrpm/~3/ug9bL-2WO4o/life-aint-gods-intellectual-property_19.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Ankur)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://i46.tinypic.com/34p0ysm_th.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>2</thr:total><description>&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Lifeatrpm/~4/ug9bL-2WO4o" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><feedburner:origLink>http://lifeatrpm.blogspot.com/2010/06/life-aint-gods-intellectual-property_19.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238585735180214084.post-4451649809568121445</guid><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jun 2010 10:27:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-06-19T08:13:11.189-07:00</atom:updated><title>Adversity is the name of the game</title><atom:summary>I had previously written how India has a four-wheeled fixation.  Anything that has four –wheels is the shortcut to nirvana and anything on two wheels is usually shunned. Sadly, this mentality is taken to the roads too.Anyone riding a bike in traffic is usually considered a poor monger who is on his bike only because he doesn’t have anything else as medium of commute or simply can’t afford a car. </atom:summary><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Lifeatrpm/~3/v-lIG3dyix0/adversity-is-name-of-game.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Ankur)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://i50.tinypic.com/1z5rods_th.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><description>&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Lifeatrpm/~4/v-lIG3dyix0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><feedburner:origLink>http://lifeatrpm.blogspot.com/2010/06/adversity-is-name-of-game.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238585735180214084.post-3676164934906482085</guid><pubDate>Wed, 02 Jun 2010 14:58:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-06-02T08:34:24.427-07:00</atom:updated><title>Bikes and the 4-Wheeled Indian Fixation</title><atom:summary>India has a fixation with 4 wheels.  Rather than a fixation, it borders on obsession.  India moves on bikes, and cars. However, bikes are the primary medium of commute for a large number of people.
