Tamil Nadu is a special place.
There are many intellectuals, writers and social activists who stand under the banner of science, reason and tolerance, but a great number of them firmly believe in one or many of these axioms.

1. Tamil is the oldest language of India, if not the world. Tamil Brahmi is the oldest script in India, if not the world.
2. Sanskrit, of course, is the wiliest language of the world, as it borrowed from all local languages and enriched itself. It now finds itself dead.

3. Hindi, the illegitimate offspring of Sanskrit, is playing the same game which its ancestor did and if the Hindi fanatics think that Tamils are not aware of this, they are sadly mistaken.
4. Art, literature, architecture, agriculture and technology - all these or at least a few of them originated in the Tamil country or were at an advanced level when the North Indians and the other South Indians were hunting, gathering and routinely retiring to caves.
5. Siddha is a stand-alone medical system and it has nothing to do with Ayurveda. Siddhas were great scientists.
6. Periyar is one of most original thinkers of the world and the world should be grateful that the Tamils are not claiming that he is the only original thinker of the world.
7. Prabhakaran was humane, democratic, anti-Fascist and anti-Chauvinist and he didn’t order the killing of Rajiv Gandhi. Even if he had, the persons who were sentenced to death in Rajiv Gandhi’s case were innocent and had no knowledge of what was happening around them.
8. Tamils don’t claim that they are perfect. They do know that they too have a few ills, but the source of these ills can easily be traced back to that arch-villain – the tufted, paunchy, sacred thread-wearing and mantra-mumbling Tamil Brahmin.
9. India should be grateful that Tamil Nadu has condescended to be part of it.
10. Anyone who openly says that the Tamil intellectuals, writers and social activists firmly believe in one or many of these nine axioms is a traitor to the Tamil cause.
