The rights of the people to be free to exercise their religious and philosophical beliefs” includes *by necessity* the right to abstain from the practise of any religious and philosophical beliefs.
This right cannot be guaranteed in any environment wherein a practice of this type is enacted in a state funded context — like a classroom — and the participation is all but compulsory for those present in that they must experience another’s religious practice on their time and against their will.
School ground is not the issue. School TIME *is*. At that point, it becomes STATE time, which makes it STATE religion.
Say hello to theocracy.

number of view: 664Mahabharata says, Gandhari cursed Srikrishna for his causing Kurukshetra war and hence destroyed him and his tradition. So Gandhari was powerful than Krishna. Then why should the Hindus worship Krishna?
I am very much interested to know the abilities and disabilities (if any) of the God you worship
Because of his innocence, my 10 year old child wishes to become God. He is ready to sacrifice or learn anything for this purpose. But I don’t know how it is possible. I don’t know what the present God has done for his getting that position. But it is not the child’s mistake to wish to get such a position and thereby helping the whole universe. Everybody should get equal chance to reach in a high position. Why the present God is so greedy to his chair?
Big ones have no time to listen the little ones. That is a truth we know. Still most people pray. Is it not the first wonder in the world?
It is scientifically proved that some diseases are hereditary. People say that God is our forefather. So what is wrong in saying that he is the reason for such diseases?
Sisupal is an example. If God has created him as a cruel person, it is God’s mistake. God could have changed his mind in the initial stages. It is God’s mistake waiting to see him more cruel and wicked. Lastly God has killed him. That is also a mistake of God because killing is not a remedy for eradicating cruelty from this world. So my conclusion is, either God is Mad or Hi is a pacca fool. What you say?
God is like a farmer who destroys everything he sows. Our cry will not reach his ears. Then why the hell religions ask us to pray?
After giving sedation, when the body is operated, can you explain what happens to the soul inside it? If the soul is watching the operation as a third person, why it could not able to remember it afterwards? Soul and mind are one and the same, existed only when the brain is active. Is it not the truth?

number of view: 541Hindu God Krishna said, ‘Chathur varnyam maya sritam’. OK, agreed. But who has created the other castes in Hindu? And who has created Christians, Muslims etc?
52. Theists say God is beyond Logic. Then, how they have decided God’s existence? Was it imagination or Logic?
Did that God has no power? One or two persons say “By God’s grace I passed the examination”. But another 24 or 36 persons failed in that examination. Are they not fit for God’s grace?
We have enough vegetarian food in the world. Then why should you kill (or make others killing) animals for food? If you are a believer of a kind hearted God, stop the sin of eating his own children. If you are a rationalist, think that pain is same to all creatures which have mind and brain (Excluding plants) and stop killing your dear domestic animals for food.
There is no use of religion if it is not able to teach you to stop eating meat. If God can not stop pain in the world, what is the use of pray? Are you tiger or lion? Are you not civilized enough to avoid the painful killing of animals for food? Will you agree if somebody eat your meat telling that it is tasty and telling that God had created you for his food? Why can’t you stop that dirty habit of making your stomach a crematorium?
Plants have life but they don’t have brain to know pain. So please don’t compare. Pain will be the same for humans and animals. What is your justification in eating meat? If it is your taste, then human meat also may be tasty. Dear Theists, please think that killing is a sin and desist from that habit. Dear Atheists, please think that your cattle, goat, rabbit, etc. believe in you. They come to you when you call them. They think you are his owner and you will protect them. But you put the knife on its neck! Are you lion or tiger? If it is painful to you, it will be the same for them as well. So please desist from the habit of eating meat. I want to know your justification in killing animals. Please keep in mind that everybody will see your answer. So give the answer logically.
Those who do not believe in any religion may also give their justification in eating meat. Pain is the same to all living things which had a brain to feel it. Then why do you follow that cruel habit?
I am not talking about dog lovers etc. But about such great personalities who give importance to all animals from ants to elephants. I hope a religious person cannot think so.
59. Hindus are running behind everything to worship it. Do you agree with these words of Swami Vivekananda?
Hindus could not survive without worshiping something, he said. Was he right?
