It (is) not easy … to draw a line between Hindu nationalism and true nationalism. The two overlap as India is the only home of Hindus and they form a majority there. — J. Nehru
Those who permit slaying of animals; those who bring animals for slaughter; those who slaughter; those who sell meat; those who purchase meat; those who prepare dishes out of meat; those who serve that meat and those who eat it are all murderers. — Manusmriti
When I think of all the harm the Bible has done, I despair of ever writing anything to equal it.” — Oscar Wilde
Christianity is the most ridiculous, the most absurd and bloody religion that has ever infected the world. — Voltaire
Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned, [molested]: yet we have not advanced one inch towards humanity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools, and the other half hypocrites. To support error and roguery all over the earth. — Thomas Jefferson
The methods adopted by the invaders have left behind them their aftermath. One aftermath is the bitterness between the Hindus and the Muslims which they have caused. This bitterness, between the two, is so deep-seated that a century of political life has neither succeeded in assuaging it; nor in making people forget it. As the invasions were accompanied with destruction of temples and forced conversions, with spoliation of property, with slaughter, enslavement and abasement of men, women and children, what wonder if the memory of these invasions has ever remained green, as a source of pride to the Muslims and as a source of shame to the Hindus? — B. R. Ambedkar
I read the whole article. I was born and raised catholic. And I agree ot the points and facts the author raises. Good work. Very comprehensive yet simple and factual. I read a lot nowday and tries to make my own opinion. So this is certianly an eye opener.
But I would like to pointout some other facts too. The majority of the articles posted here are by hindu supporters or based on hindu themes. While they write these article, they present lot of historical facts and try eliminate myth and mystical things from the fact. I appreciate that! But why don’t they apply such logical thinking in their own faith. Isn’t that the way everyone should progress? For example why are educated hindus say protect cows. One article says emission of CO2 and methane by cattle as great factor in exacerbating the green hourse effect and global warming. The author only mentions about the emission from cows we feed, he forgot the cows we milk will emit the same gases. And a cow is not producing milk to give to humans.But we take it without cow’s consent. We are exploiting. That is a fact.
If exploitation or mistreating of animals is the matter, going vegan is the way. Don’t kill animals don’t use any by product such as milk. Otherwise it is hypocrisy
