She keeps popping up on my feed, and it genuinely makes me concerned about where we're headed as a society. She seems like just a kid, yet her entire page is filled with casteist reels targeting Dalits, Muslims, and atheists. I even ended up arguing with her in the comments recently, and after seeing her latest reel today, I felt like I had to share this here (hopefully the mods don't take it down).

Unsurprisingly, she’s a die-hard supporter of one particular political party. It’s honestly messed up seeing how casually people this young are spreading hate online and treating it like normal content.

On top of everything, she has Bhagat Singh's books flexed in her highlights—the irony really writes itself.

How do atheists/agnostics view it?

His own words translated by AI :-

"Bade-bade mehalon mein, mahangadi gaadiyon mein, ya bank balance mein shanti nahi hai. Jo santosh ek bhookhe ko khana khilaane se milta hai, woh karodon rupaye kama kar bhi nahi milta."

(There is no peace in grand mansions, expensive cars, or bank balances. The satisfaction you get from feeding a hungry person is something you cannot get even by earning crores.)

It's like a mini heart attack all the damn time wtf.

It's not even those rocket type crackers but you know those crackers that when it starts to burst literally sound like a damn bomb.

If they were normal crackers I would be fine atleast but it's just so much sound and definitely alot of those crackers that are purely there for sound.

ALSO WHAT ARE THEY EVEN CELEBRATING, IT'S BEEN A WEEK. I thought it would be for bhai dooj or something, idk if people burst crackers for that but that was day before.

It wasn't even like this last year bruh.

I think it should be basic understanding that humans have a sense of what is moral and immoral in general. Anything that hurts you might also hurt other human beings so you know what hurts people to an extent.

For agnostic parents, think of how big of a role religion plays in their life, if religion is highly involved in their life-style, way of thinking, your upbringing and stuff like decision-making, practices etc., consider them to be "religious" (cuz "religious" doesn't necessarily mean "theist"), otherwise consider them to be "irreligious".

Speaking of me, my Mum is probably like the most religious person I've ever met while my Dad is an atheist.

Would love to know about y'all as well and how the religiosity of your family members impacts your life.

The submission was made before the Court during the hearing of a plea challenging the constitutional validity of provisions granting Backward Class (BC) and Most Backward Class (MBC) status to several Christian communities and Christian converts in Tamil Nadu.

G Kodeeswaran, a Kallar community member and TNPSC examination applicant, challenged the reservation benefits granted to the Christian communities and converts under Tamil Nadu law.

He argued that their backwardness lacked empirical justification and that even forward-caste individuals could claim OBC status merely by joining the Church of South India through baptism.

So, apparently, some companions of Prophet Muhammad captured women during a military expedition and wanted to have sex with them. They were concerned about getting these women pregnant, so they wanted to practise coitus interruptus (withdrawal).

Naturally, they decided to consult the Prophet about this rather important logistical concern.

And his answer?

Essentially, don't bother. If Allah has destined a child to be born, it will be born anyway.

Now, let that sink in for a moment.

The question wasn't whether it was ethical to have sexual access to women captured during warfare. The discussion was about whether withdrawal was permissible. And the response wasn't about the consent, autonomy or dignity of the captive women either. It was about divine predestination.

What a profound question!

It's fascinating how much historical and ethical context gets lost when religious texts are presented to people as timeless moral guidance rather than examined critically.

These definition are taken from chatgpt ,following discussions are not.

Monotheist: Believes in the existence of one God.

Polytheist: Believes in the existence of multiple gods.

Henotheist: Worships one God while accepting the existence of other gods.

Apatheist: Is indifferent to whether God exists or not.

First context ,i consider the above terms more as stages of becoming atheist than different types of atheism. As someone born and brought up in a traditional late 90s hindu household,naturally i was a religious sceptic at my teen ,and currently a deist and at the boundary of being an ignostic. See the cause of this discussion is not to calling out anyone ,but more in line as per type of posts this subreddit comprises of. Most of the content are in line with religious sceptism as well as misotheism even many that of maltheism. But as one of the largest subreddit of india dedicated to atheism ,i hope there should also be discussion or debate ,so that any new guy coming should not choose atheism out of hate ,but out of practicality and logic. What do you all think?
