Is Hinduism a soft Target for Atheists ???
My last post was to describe some racist nature hidden in our ancient systems, but not against any particular religion. Since Hinduism was the oldest religion (Gulf of Cambay – 7000BC followed Hinduism), it is natural to get a great impact of thousands of generations and their ideologies. The religion had to embrace a lot of modifications and had to accommodate modern thoughts and gain a new shape. So lot of flaws may be noticed here and there.
Why atheists in India are not talking anything against Christianity or Islam ? Ofcourse there are many other religions like Sikhism, Jainism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism and so on, but I will just talk about the two other major religions in India. When I was discussing about the last post with one of my buddies, he got so angry that I was completely biased and Hinduism is always an easy target. It is true that Hinduism is a soft target, because the followers are not much affected by the fact that their gods are ill-addressed. They are able to digest the flaws and move on. They go to temple the very next day. Is this part called tolerance ? Maybe yes. They are allowed to question in Hinduism. While in Christianity and Islam, you are never allowed to question.
Even some well known atheists like, Periyar Dasan (even before getting converted into a Muslim) was targeting Hindus and supporting the faith and belief of Muslims and Christians. I think it is biased. Kamal Hasan is my Hero, but even he seemed to target only Hinduism. The well known comedian, Vivek was targeting the baseless beliefs and practices in Hinduism. So they are Atheists or just Anti-Hindu ?
Is it true that the other two major religions are flawless ? Christianity is completely sane ? These are my opinions and sound funny and unreasonable if you are a Christian…
1. There are always questions about the proper marital status of Jesus.
2. There are few other conspiracy theories about his death/crucifixion.
3. Why Jesus was asking his father when he was about to die, why he betrayed him at his crucifixion.
4. Why should they share their part holy book with Muslims.
5. Why the Era separation comes in this fashion, if Jesus was born on 25th of December.
6. Why their god has so many connections with the Greek gods ?
7. Why their religion should give women second grade treatment ? Why Magdalene was completely ignored ?
8. Why there are so many versions of their holy book and so many corrections ?
9. How a pope (human) can change something that is supposed to be written by God’s disciples themselves ?
Islam is very well known for it’s controlling nature and focus towards the god. When the new religion is well set to launch, they had to address the flaws of the older religions and also stand as religion with their own principle and ideologies. Islam is a religion that want to bring some discipline to humanity like many other religions, but in some strict way. The following are my opinions or ideas which all Muslims will disagree to, except 3rd and 6th points.
1. Hinduism was one of the most popular religions and most followed when Islam was found. Main controversial ideology of Hinduism is Idol worship, so Islam addressed it and followed formless god.
2. They analyzed the medical issues and made the ‘Halal’ principle.
3. When Islam was found it was dark period when women were ill-treated as a result of the christian principles and so they had to further kindle the male chauvinism in order to sustain in the market called “Religion and God”. Islam gives permission for husbands to beat their wives until they do as they are asked to do.
4. Polygamous nature of humans were handled well in Islam by allowing people to marry whomever they want to ( Lot of complications and they are very well tackled when it comes to blood relation, eg: a man cant be married two sisters at the same time)
5. If all prophets have some legal powers during the D day, why Jesus was not given any powers ?
6. Just for not saying ok to God’s experiment of earth game, all the animals are subjected to be eaten by humans ? The god doesn’t know anything about blue-cross ? Just a camel and a goat get their place in heaven ? How do they get it, if they are forcefully used by humans ? Why did god select just that particular goat ? or that particular camel to serve humans and get a spot in heaven ?
7. Why constantly bringing fear into humans by reminding about hell and the punishments, if the god is so kind enough and the religion is so peaceful ?
Unquestioned faith in both religion make them even worse to believe than the old Hinduism. Religion and god is pure business and people fall for it all the time.
Christianity and Islam are both similar when it comes to non-practitioners of their religions. They go to hell for sure, no matter how much good deeds they do, they go to hell. Hinduism can claim that they don’t have any such things. It is because by the time Hinduism was found, it must have been the monopoly boss and no competition, so no such rules, otherwise you other guys would go to hell made by Krishna or Shiva or whoever
If you are a non-believer of god and you believe in nature or science or other than god stuff, be proud of it and be against god-believers of all religion and all forms. I am a proud non-believer.
Ps: Atheism / Non-believing of god is not a fashion, its a feeling and principle and philosophy.
