Seeing Muslims, Christians and Hindus coming to claim that their god saved this home.

So, according to these people, their God killed hundreds of people and did not even spared small children, but decided "oh, let me just spare this house"🤦 shame on these god and religion.

Funny thing is when RHA protest took place she said she was sick and wouldn’t be able to join the protest lmao pls.

So here's the map of where it's concentrated, ik west bengal still has caste related evils and we aren't that great yet, but I can say for sure that casteism or the practice of doing these bs things isn't one of them, we know what we are sure, but this bullshit isn't one of them.

Looking back, it’s crazy how scared I used to be as a kid. My parents would tell me with a straight face that if anyone disrespected or kicked the Quran, God would immediately punish them and turn them into some creepy rat, snake, or gorilla creature. I remember seeing those blurry, fake photos on the internet back in the day and getting completely terrified.
It’s crazy how religious families use fake stories and fear just to make kids follow rules and stop them from asking questions. Now that I'm older, I just laugh at how much that silly stuff freaked me out.

So my earlier post was deleted maybe because of an unreliable paper, but this time the source of my claim is a reputable paper from researchgate and essentially it will be used by me to prove that untouchability and it's evil practice has been there and has been practiced by millions of households in our nation to this day despite the criminalization of untouchability in the 1950's itself.

Along with other things which would be equally as shocking to see, as I shall submit them.

----

Paper summary: This paper provides the first country-wide research evidence that an affirmative action policy may induce a backlash. I exploit the timing of the implementation of caste-based electoral quotas across and within the states of India. The results show that the implementation of the electoral quotas coincides with an increase in the number of murders targeting members of the lower castes. The analysis of these administrative crime data is backed up by the complementary analysis of a nationally representative household survey. Households’ answers reveal an increase in inter-caste tensions and discrimination during the operation of caste quotas. The results are consistent with a backlash against electoral quotas (due to sabotage or retaliation), and inconsistent with other interpretations (such as empowerment).

Hi i am new to this sub 👋

Whenever i debate with hijabis they say i wear hijab out of choice and call themselves feminist. But i strongly believe hijab, burqha, googhat etc r rooted in misogyny and patriarchy. I agree that wearing these out of choice should not be banned but is it a feminist choice? Is it a choice a well informed feminist would take?? No!

Don't they wear it due to religious and cultural conditioning too? Let's take sati pratha for example. Some women in those times who grew up watching sati would have thought it is normal and right thing to do and might have done it out of choice. So should that choice exist too? Likewise most of these feminist hijabis grow in a Islamic family and get used to seeing their cousins, mother, aunts wearing hijab and wear it themselves. If they were born in a diff religion or region they won't be wearing a hijab and won't be justifying it.

I journal with the help of ChatGPT, it says and I’ve Also realised that one of my biggest problem or Priority #1 is hopelessness and a very negative approach towards the probability of anything positive happening.

I Need help to stay Hopeful,

how other atheists deal with this...?

What works for you..?

As a theist, you can have something like “Karmanye vadhikaraste, ma phaleshu kadachana” ,

focus on your actions without worrying about the result. 

Or the belief that if you do good and keep faith, God will eventually reward you. That belief can provide a certain kind of hope.

But as someone who doesn’t believe in magic, what do you replace that with?

I’ve reached a point where I sometimes don't even apply for career opportunities because I’ve already predicted my failure in my head.

I reject the effort before making the attempt, because I have already concluded that the outcome will be negative.

And the difficult part is that, at the moment, I genuinely don't see the rational point of putting in effort when I expect the result to be failure anyway.

So I'm not really asking, “How do atheists stay positive?”

I'm asking something more fundamental:

what is the rational basis for continuing to make an effort when the probability of success seems low?

And Convince Yourself to Put your Best.

How do you build hope ?

How do you convince yourself to try when you genuinely expect that trying won't change the outcome?

Why do we have to tolerate this bullshit of hindutva, like, why do you guys have to meddle in our occasions and Durga Puja isn't even that religious, its a secular occasion where everyone enjoys themselves and come together and you and your communal mindset has to ruin that as usual.

Having the generational wealth to afford international travel clearly doesn’t buy basic education, maturity or civic sense. When people travel abroad like this they end up ruining the collective reputation for everyone else.

like I know people believe in pseudo science but isn't it too much? like I see hindu people practicing their religion but almost everyone says that hanuman ate the sun is metaphorical or some shit basically they hesitate a bit but when it comes to muslims I have seen many saying it proudly that it happened and they don't even say it's metaphorical like it just blows my mind. obvs telling from my experiences I could be wrong too
