chanchala Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Just now, dasari4kntr said: agree.. if peoples imagination gives comforts to them...nothing wrong in that... but if people started thinking imagination is the only reality...and fight for that imaginary reality..then the problem starts... Its a purely political fight though. I know there are several little ways where god believers will exercise power that seems harmless at first glance, but eventually adds up to what we have in India today. a lot of 'well meaning' people can turn monsters in a second, even if they don't take up arms by hiding behind that solidarity over culture or god. So the fight against this is extremely hard and complex. but that fight doesn't start with the question 'is there god?' in fact, at this point, god is immaterial. you can simply assume everyone is a god believer, and attack the actions that are socially harmful. In fact, most of the monsters in today's society probably don't even believe in god, in the way you traditionally define god. They believe in power. and the man's ability to exercise it. I think its fine to use god to cut these men/women to size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thats true, then there's no need for god itself. your brahmin bashing is hollow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
