Kamba Ramayanam was having support among the others. > The Saivites did not not support it.
Kamba Ramayana was composed during later chola era who were ardent shaivites.Chola kings supporetd kambar whole heartedly.I dont think public of chola kingdom thought themselves as veera shaivites and refused to read kamba ramayan.Kamba ramayana was popular among whole poets of tamilnadu irrespective of their differences.
KuRaL was unknown until very late tiimes. But it was being > read by the Jains during all times.
Jains have contributed greatly to tamil literature.But that doesnt mean that kural is a jain book.I agree that kural is not a religious book and is common to whole human race.But if you really want to search for a religion in kural it will be hinduism.

Manikkavasagar,yes,i have read him.St.catherines is a sad story.Devout christianity to the core.pressing thorns on her head and extreme fasting.Her dialogues too are religious like praying and obedience.Nothing wrong in being religious .Maybe if u can quote what i missed in her apart from religion i will be greatful.Teresa is about mythical christianity and perfection of souls by prayer stuff.Her autobiography might have been interesting,but dint read that so far.
