i believe more than education its the ignorance or lack of it of a human being which counts to him or her being an atheist or a believer
i believe its a personal choice no one can make u believe in god or make u an atheist it comes from within inner self
just becoz few individuals dont believe in certain things doesnt mean that they dont exist or they arent true and vice versa can u see pain , no u can just feel it
either u believe or u dont in spirituality
an ignorant guy need not be educated
one thing i like about hinduism is that it doesnt say dont do this or dont do that it just says what is right and what is wrong the choice is yours

Dollar Anand....The Greatness of Hinduism lies in your answer. None of our books says that you are not a Hindu if you don't follow it or if you don't do certain things in a certain way. Those who do these things are also Hindus and people like me who don't believe in caste etc. are also Hindus. That is the greatness. We don't have to be told by a churh or a mu11ah the do and don'ts of being a Hindu.

and dollar anand
have u ever heard about crusades : holy wars which were fought all over europe and asia becoz the westerners projected their religion christianity as supreme and killed and converted thousands at the point of the cutlass
have u ever heard about muslim barbaric warriors intended on destroying hinduism in Indian subcontinent just becoz on the name of religion
how many wars or incidents have u heard about when people were forced to get converted to "Hinduism " none
I have seen so many writing here. some have even insulted the great god. it is a great truth that god shiva is a reality. people with out knowledge thinks that it is a mythology. once u know the truth abt god shiva, u can see the chandrakala, snakes even the ganga matha on his head. god shiva gets activated at the time of destruction. our sages were knowing this. today i know this and i am seeing every second the god shiva. we are not conducting any research here. where as we are learning wrong things in the name of science introduced by westerners or europeans and everybody is believing as it is truth. for example we learn that the leaf takes carbon dioxide by releasing oxygen. but we think that this is correct as introduced by europeans. what ever science today acheived by westerns are due to our scriptures. but even they could not understand it as it is very complex and they arrived wrong conclusions. another example eclipse they teach us that it is happening due to moon. in reality it is wrong. the rahu is the cause for eclipse. so go thru our old texts and conduct research u will get treasure.

well said
its a foregone conclusion that indian science , technology , knowledge , history etc etc was far superior than western
comeon man do they really believe that indians didnt know that the earth was round and it revolves around the sun before galileo discovered it in 17 th century
It's time people start believing in the idom "The hands that help are holier than the lips that pray".
I guess even GOD would want humanity to focus on human than him. He's omnipresent and we always have his blessings. Giving an helping hand to an unfortunate and getting his/her blessings is what we all should seek.
The title of the article is totally misleading, giving the impression that the lingam never melts and this time around the God has become powerless. Though, the contents of the article is well written.
