simple, yet profound
In some remote village of India, one masterji is teaching the Mahabharat Katha to class SIX students. He is at the Krishnajanma part of it.
Masterji: "Kansa heard the akashwani that his sister's 8th child is going to kill him. He was furious. He ordered Vasudev and Devaki put behind bars.
First son is born, and Kansa kills him by poisoning.
Second one is born and Kansa throws him off the mountain peak. Third one is born."
Now Ramu - smartest of the lot - puts up his hand.
[sounding nervous n confused] "Masterji, I have a doubt"
Masterji: "Ramu bete, whole India does not have doubt in Mahabharata. How come u have one?"
Ramu: Masterji, if Kansa knew that Devaki's 8th child was going to kill him,
WHY THE HELL DID HE PUT VASUDEV AND DEVAKI IN THE SAME CELL?
still need proof that the Mahabharat is just another stupid novel?
that aside, it also proves that Ramu is very advanced for his age. this guy is in the SIXTH CLASS and knows that man + woman = kid.
I didn't know that till my EIGHTH class and even that was by accident.

I was thinking more on the lines of, "Why couldn't he just have killed the both of em?"
