No Rligion--Any takers?Who will bell the cat?

I am providing a link to Times of India today(27th Dec 09). front page article " no religion please...."


Welcome - Times Of India ePaper

No religion please, we're liberals - Mumbai - City - The Times of India.

There are many advocates seen in this site and forum for abolition of caste, and are there any who want to abolish religion? Who will bell the cat? The trickle is seen.Can there be avalanche? Can it be practical?

I hope a lot of real productive and positive comments will flow.

Greetings.

This type of odd news is always highlighted.

Dravidian movement in Tamilnadu wanted abolish religions, particularly Hindu religion. But what happened now. Even the younger generation DMK leaders have become staunch followers of Hindu religion.

I don't think religions will not be abolished in the near future. People don't want to give up even caste. One can think of abolishing religion only after eradicating caste first. I don't we will see the same in the immediate future.

All the best

In my opinion,caste or religion can never be eradicated.Probably we have to recognise that only the differences between the castes and religion can be made to be better understood so that people appreciate each other better

Sri. Suryakasyapa Sir,

Greetings to you.

I do not wish to follow any religion. I do adovacate against all religions. I would welcome it if the religions are abolished.

The bell is already tied to the cat. In Australia 19% of the population declared in their census forms that they don't follow any religion and it is growing. Further 12% belongs to persons have not stated and have not clearly stated about their religious followings.

Australia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Religion Report - 4 July 2007 - Religion in the Australian census; the Samaritans in Israel

It seems to be practical in Australia.

Cheers!

We could have a wonderful and peaceful world

IF..........

Not a single Hindu claims himself/herself as Hindu
Not a single Muslim claims himself/herself as Muslim
Not a single Christian claims himself/herself as Christian
Not a single other religion people identify themselves with their religion

Among millions of people surviving in this world with different religions, it may take millions of years for such changes to take place.

Might be that would be the DOOMSDAY.....

Sri Ravi,

I don't think it will take millions of years for the religions to vanish. It may happen within the next 100 years (provided dec21st 2012 is a hoax!). In my opinion it will be very voilent and devastating. Hopefully at the end the religions may vanish altogether.

Cheers!

Sre Raghy ji,


Having discussed with many known people here in Dubai on the great event predicted to happen on 21st Dec, 2012 in a casual and funny manner, I could come to know that many are of the opinion -

"America has crossed all the limits of Atrocities with in and outside. Thus the doomsday would be only for America. The violent and devastating calamity would occur in such a way that America would almost be out of the World Map. And that is the time when India would be the Super Power Nation, leading the rest of the world"

How interesting is that????

Why at all should be a question on religion? Why can,t it be removed wherever it is used now? That is what I meant who will bell the cat?
Individuals are ready. Caste /Religion is only forced on one and reminded by forcing to choose and select and declare.If this goes it will automatically facilitate further smoothness.

Greetings

Sri. SuryaKaysyaba Sir,

Greetings to you too Sir.

Let me be honest with you, please. I would have loved yourself and your opposite pole Sri. Nara to be my mentors when I was young.

Respectable Sir,

Question on religion is only compulsory in India. Not in western countries. My wife refused to fill religion column for our son. The school accepted that. The question on religion can't be removed. There are people like Jehowa Witnesses. Sri. SuryaKaysyaba, you are such a great person, I even mentioned JW in the same sentence. I am sorry. I really like you Sir.

Sir, countries like Australia likes to know who doesn't believe in Religion any more; hence the question. Removing the question on religion may not give the true picture about the ones who don't follow any religion, Sir. I think , that question is releavent.

Sri. Kaysyapa Sir,

As an individual, I know you are ready for a positive change. That's why I admire you all the time. Respectable Sir, in India, the political parties benefitting from gullible are not ready; they will not dare remove the religion and caste question from any application. Forward thinking caste brahmins too pay the price. Sri.Nara, where are you? Kindly come to this thread, please. I like to know your learned opinion on this please.

Cheers!

Sri.Ravi,

Not interesting at all. In spite of debatable foreign policies, Americans are really good people. I have spoken to few of them. I will not accept anybody thinking ill for the Americans; I am sorry, mate! Do you know that the Americans are biggest charity providers for the last .....years? I left the gap... you can fill any figure! Americans are some of the nicest people I have met. India does not want a glory at the cost of America, mate! My friend the day America goes down (May God forbid), India will go down too. Sorry!

Cheers!
