[Reader-list] Banish religion

[Yousuf]

Are castism and racism a product of religion or of the
competition for survival? Will competition die if we
banish the religions and god?

The root cause of this anomaly is the
over-subscription to organized religion. The morass of
political correctness and religion- centric debates,
rhetoric, policies and politics is one of the primary
reasons for the increasing suffering and deaths all
over the world. It is ridiculous that thousands of
innocents are being slaughtered (from Gujarat to
middle east) on the basis of imagined beings (gods)
their so called messages and superstitious practices
being proclaimed by hordes of self seeking
representatives. The aberration of casteism is the
product of this.

Banish religion  and its advocacy from the public
domain and return its (religion) practice to the
private fold

Let the rule of law prevail. Maybe affirmative action
and social justice will be better served if it is
based on class rather than caste.
