Vivek harry asked me a question:

@ali, these are not assumptions, when you are not willing to stand by your beliefs, then why are you so confident about it, is it not true that only you people are good, i am asking you a direct question, answer it if you have the guts, then we will see, your evasive answers itself show that you do not believe your faith.

My answer :

A devout law abiding hindu is better than a non law abiding muslim. I hope this time you didnt think that I was trying to confuse you.

Majed Ali, I appreciate your open mind. I believe, you have a good heart, and so you judge well. At the end of the day, all humans have two kidneys, two eyes, the same sort of digestive and other organs, the blood is the same colour..... !!
We should not allow theology of any religion to stop us appreciating each other's goodness and badness. I buy my masala, dhal vagaira from one particular shop because the shop-owner is honest - he happens to be a muslim. My plumber-cum-electrician is good with his skills, he happens to be a Hindu!! Three or four people who have cheated me in the past, some were Hindu, some were Muslim. So, it shows, there is good and bad in every bunch!!
Hindus are not too strong on religion. The feeling is that Muslims may be a bit too strong on religion and allow that to influence other areas of their lives.

Please teach me the art of understanding a book by reading just one line from somewhere in between. Obviously the sentence must not have appeared just like that.

Dear Majed Ali, the so-called holy books are creations of sur-realistic visionaries. They are no more serious than Gulliver's Travels or Aesop's Fables.

Life on planet earth is the only thing known to mankind. Enjoy that to the fullest extent possible without harming others for getting rewards in an imaginary life here-after.

Believe in yourself. Beleive in the basic goodness of all humanbeings. Beleive in the principles of neo-humanism and modern civil laws.

Pl download an read The Necessity of Atheism by Dr. D.M. Brooks freely available at "Project Gutenberg".

I dont think a person would go to hell. It is for God to decide.
