I think Dogmatic power structures need to be opposed as much as religion. I mean various “isms” that were atheistic like Communism( in China, Cambodia etc. ) Nazism etc are a great examples of how, even a political ideology can end up to be as bad or worse than religion. Religion is a very strong variant of this kind(or maybe even a template for the others). Any system that doesn’t have to answer and prove itself again and again should be in check. No no to inherent “perfect and irrevocable systems “ i mean.
Religion was important in the course of history. People use it for their own gain, then it became worse eg: Islam and early Catholic Church. Intrinsic religiosity is 👍
Therein lies the problem with tackling the irrationality in India. The more, posh, 'intellectual' right-winger Hindu nationalists like J Sai Deepak would argue that they are bringing 'Hinduism to modernity', and that vedas aren't solely religious scriptures. That our ancient scriptures contain immense amount of material knowledge, which many modern European scientists are credited for. There is some truth to it, the Pythogoras theorem being one example. They argue that they are infact contributing to science, and are far more rational than the atheists who oppose Hindu Culture and are brainwashed or Decolonization. By the way, I would like your opinion on 'Decolonization of indian minds', which one of the main agenda of the more 'intellectual' Hindutva nationalists you would find at IIT. Maybe a video or 2?
Yes core religious beliefs must be questioned, a litmus test on rational and irrationality inside them. Very few will do it. Atheists rational thinkers must put more light on this.
*Superstition force us to believe which is not exist or not possible thats why we oppose to believe in Superstition BUT at the same time, if we say that we believe in GOD, then thats the biggest problem. becuz in reality everybody know GOD doesnt exist in the UNIVERSE, but if we believe in GOD's existence then we are actually believing in SUPERSTITION where one side, we opposing to believe on Superstition.*
@@vimoh when you say god here do you mean a personal god here . I had earlier asked you a question which was like what comes to your mind when you hear the word God and you simply said 'I don't know' so now what do you have to say on this. In this context what do you mean to say by the statement god is the greatest superstition pls clarify 'which god' or 'what god'
Ok i agree with everything u say. But there are good things also in religion. Should we eradicate them also with all this? Is that actually worth it? Just to be clear i am an atheist. Just asking questions coz i am curious
That peacock and tears issue was really so dumb and shocking… he was a high court judge.. just think about his statements and judgements on others !!!?? 😬
That's for religious people to try. Not me. I don't think it's possible, because religion is almost 100% based on magical thinking. In addition, it is a way to consolidate political power and nobody wants to let go of it.
@@vish-sw9dc yes brother you should stop stop chanting and worshipping as it is just timepass..... These things never works if you have to cross a road you have to walk .... I am just helping but at the end it's on you.🙏

Is Nazism atheistic ?

Atheizm is as Problematic or more dangerous than any other Izms.
This is a really good point, and gives us a lot to think about.
Great content! More power Vimoh!
You are highly underrated.

You are right.
Excellent! Well said.
I am a religious person but I believe that truth matter most.
@vimoh u should have a podcast with j sai deepak about rationality that opposes religion lets say..hindu..islamic or any other religion

God is the greatest superstition.

And where is irrationality, the most important thing to fight against in the 21st century? What problems are it causing?

He wants the people not to be blind believers on anything said on the name of religion..
That peacock and tears issue was really so dumb and shocking… he was a high court judge.. just think about his statements and judgements on others !!!?? 😬
Perfect
While there have been many atheistic schools of thought channeling rationality, why do you think religion persists?
Will bringing the change in religion with being more rational solve the problem instead of opposing the religion? May be that could be a Win Win??

Can you elucidate by what you mean by "lend its power to other people" at the end. Power here is?
As I said, legitimacy and acceptability.
