Religion is a myth
by Narendran kumar on Feb 20, 2008 06:51 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

First of all I would like the soul of Dinakaran to rest in peace. Though I am against his way of preaching, I do not want to abuse a dead man. Secondly, each and every religion is a myth. If you study deeply every religion is well crafted by some people for the benefit of some by looting a large mass. All the gods, whether it is Yehowa, Jesus, Allah, Vishnu, Shiva, Buddha, or whatever, they cant save their disciples in crisis. Tsunami took 2 lakh people's life with no difference in religion. Muslims, Hindus, Christians, all died. Where were these gods on that day. People die at Mecca because of stampede. Nearly 47 people lost their life in Sabarimala some years back, every day israelis, gods own people, die at the hands of palestenians. It is all business. Nothing more than that. Missionaries, priests, mullahs, monks everyone live on the money of common man. The world would have been better if no religion was found. A religion is for the priest and by the priest.

Karunanidhi is a secret worshipper. He wears a yellow shawl on the advice of his astrologer. But he behaves dear to minorities just for vote. He behaved more than a devotee to Sathya Sai Baba recently and his family members visit all the temples secretly for his well being.

Taral Prakash Bhatt,

Mr. Karunanidhi had even visited the Ashram of Sai Baba of Puttaparthi a few months back. He is a politician and would like to keep all sections of the society happy. Nothing more to be read into that. Btw Mr. Dinakaran was not a dread criminal to be avoided at any cost. Though we may not like his ideology, that is not a reason to hate him as an individual. And to the best of my knowledge he did not create any animosity among the people of our country on account of religion.
