    @FluffyCookie He does have good points.
    I do have to point out I love how they are having a mutual respectful conversation where they just let each-other talk and listen and then ask further questions and are not degrading to the other person but just have an attitude of curiosity and understanding. I wish more debates were like this... Not all, because you know, sometimes it's just sensational to see some drama :sweat_smile:

    @FluffyCookie One big pro is that it's not Islam :grin:
    Need I say more?


  • @Eucalyptus
    I m not Islamophobic, I have Muslim friends irl. But one thing that bothers me about Islam is ghazle-e-hind . Idk if it's true or not since I didn't read kuran . But according to ghazle-e-hind, if Muslims kill or convert hindu people into Muslims then they will go to heaven. That's why mughals converted a lot people in Muslims. Other religions also encourage people to accept their religion. But in the name of religion mughals did all this.
    Telling again I'm not Islamophobic, if I offended any Muslim here 😅


  • Indeed. I mean , why even eat something like this?

    @Its-the-Sleepy Aww, such a cute fluffer :heart_eyes:


  • @Its-the-Sleepy lol..looks meaty..dont you know that baby cows are a good source of chymosin--the protease needed to curdle milk for cheese making.

    Nowadays, cheese is genetically modified (GMO)--using E. coli that produce chymosin. But the taste/flavor of the end product from this is very far from those produced using the real chymosin.

    To extract that, we have to kill calves. :smirk:


  • @Lake-Bodom Portable document format?

  • Banned

    @Ash33 I got a Quran verse for you..

    "Whoever kills an innocent person it is as if he has killed whole humanity" Quran 5:32

    'If people make mistakes blame them, not their religion.'


  • @George_Floyd

  • ABOOBS

    @XR7_ Soo, does that mean that to the quran, whoever doesn't believe in the quran is not considered innocent?

    Hinduism is better than other religions because

    1. Indians get a lot of holidays due to the festivals celebrated by the Hindus in comparison with both religions. But then every religionist and atheists (Hindus or non-Hindus) who live in India, get the same holidays. If Hinduism did not exist, they won’t be given those holidays. I do not think it is a pro for a foreigner though.

    2. There is never been a forceful conversion of anyone to Hinduism.

    Hinduism is indeed no better than other religions because -

    1. The absence of doctrine in Hinduism- Unlike other religions, you can worship or not any deity or god/goddess. Some worship Durga while some would worship Ganesh. Some other worship Shiva and so on. This does not make Hindus united like other religionists.

    2. Caste-system in Hinduism- Today’s caste-system has its roots in the Vedas. They mention only 4 varnas named- Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra. Untouchables and tribal people were not kept in these 4 categories of Varnas. All these 4 varnas were originated from Brahma via his different-different organs. Shudras (native Indians) were said to be slaves or dasa because they lost to Aryas (the ones who invaded earlier India).

    (ii) During the later vedic period, Brahmins and Kshatriyas had privileges in rituals. The Vaishyas were called oppressed at will and shudras as beaten at will. Shudras were supposed to be gifted along with the land as main gift. Indeed, all four varnas were categorized according to their Karmas till this period

    (iii) During 500-200 BCE, Brahaman and Viashya varnas became rank/ jati now. The higher the occupation, the higher the rank they belonged to. And now four varnas were classified according to their maternity.

    (iv0 During 320-650 CE, Mahabharta 12.181 mentions varnas according to their colors where Brahmans was white, Kshatriyas was red, Vaishyas was yellow and Shudras was black. The teacher named Dronacharya resisted to teach archery to a guy named Eklavya because he was untouchable, yet Dronacharya’s name is said with respect today.

    There are indeed many or even all upper caste Hindus who don’t like to drink the water or eat the food touched by an untouchable or lower caste person today. They don't like to dilute or pollute their blood by marrying the person of other castes (this includes foreigners too who belong to any race black, brown or white).

    1. The beliefs of Vedic religion, Upnishadas, Manu-smriti and Geeta are indeed funny themselves-
      The Rig-veda came from fire, Yajur-veda from Air, Sama-veda from Sun. (shlokas 22-23, ch.1 manusmriti). I never seen a book coming from a non-living thing.

    People did yagyas (and do it today too) for rain and worshipped the Indra, worhsipped the sun for light and for air to the Varun. They had 33 gods as mentioned in the Vedas. In earlier Yoga school which preceded these Vedas, had just 1 personal God. The Vedas precedes the Puranas. The puranas had 100 Gods. Nice multiplier there !

    Hinduism/sanatan dharma asserts that each mahayuga is made by the 4 yugas and when one mahayuga completes, another mahayuga starts. Therefore, this universe is infinite which is absurd because we don't know whether the universe is finite or infinite or multiverse. We have some hypothesis only.

    1. Hinduism is not so peaceful either- from partition of India to today, Hindus have killed so many Muslims which include destruction of Babri Mosque, 1992 and Godhra-train incident etc. During Gadhimai festival, they killed 15,00,000 animals within 6 years (2009-2014). Shakti temples in Orissa, West Bengal, Tripura and Assam still practice animal sacrifice- goats, male buffaloes, chickens, pigeons. In these four states and in Navratra they also sacrifice buffalo for Durga. In Karnataka, Andhra pradesh, Tamilnadu hindus sacrifice them to local dieties. They offer cocks to theyyam Gods in Kerela. They sacrifice them to Kuldevi in Rajasthan and female deities in Maharashtra. Male goats are sacrificed to Samleshwari goddess in Orissa. Bali Jatra is an annual festival in which they sacrifice them too. However, they don’t kill cows. In fact, cows may have 8 kinds of parasites too- 1. Liver flukes, 2. SGI, 3. Strongyles, 4. Lice, 5. Flies, 6. Scabies, 7. Ticks, 8. Paramaphistone. It does not make any sense to worship cows but not pigs, buffaloes, horses, camels and goats. Nor does it make any sense to kill other animals and leave cows behind.

    Hindu Gods are not so non-violent either. Rama himself killed 14,000 asuras ( asuras mean those who do not do their duty or who do work against the religion). Arjuna and Krishna burnt whole Khandava forest. They killed million innocent animals and civilians. Krishna cleverly tried to defend himself where he said the God of fire wanted to burn it for satisfying his hunger. But he did so due to his own enemity. Doing Ashwamedha Yagya was a prime duty of every king prescribed in the vedas. In this yagya a chosen horse is sacrificed after freeing him as a challenge. Rama did the same yagya. Almost every king had done it till 1100.

    1. Buddha denied Brhaman-atman concept and the authority of the Vedas yet he is said to be the form of God Vishnu. He even preached people to not worship yet Hindus initialized to worship him to make Buddhism less important. His earlier school was actually heterodox.

    2. Krishna was the jealous God like Allah and Yahweh-

    Those miscreants who are grossly foolish, who are lowest among mankind, whose knowledge is stolen by Illusion and who partake of the atheistic nature of Demons do not surrender on to Me (Bhagvad Gita, 7.15)

    Those who are thus bewildered are attracted by demonic and atheistic views. In that deluded condition, their hopes for liberation, their fruitive activities, and their culture of knowledge are all defeated. (Bhagvad geeta 9.12)

    1. Hindu Gods are not so good character-wise- Krishna was polygamist who had 16,108 wives. He was certainly a pedophile because he had 8 yo Rukmini as his wife. Also, Krishna loved to steal butter in his childhood, He was the one who loved to see naked females when they bathed together in river. Even though, he stole their clothes to get the chance to stare them.

    8.The Vedas are themselves contradictory and have no author at all- There is no encyclopedia so sure about the author of the Vedas, yet 99%+ Hindus accept their authority and consider them so sacred.

    Example of a contradiction-

    The universe had an initial source- Hirangharbya. This egg existed before the creation. (Rigveda 10.121)

    Darkness there was at first, by darkness hidden;
    Without distinctive marks, this all was water;
    That which, becoming, by the void was covered;
    That One by force of heat came into being;
    Who really knows? Who will here proclaim it?
    Whence was it produced? Whence is this creation?
    Gods came afterwards, with the creation of this universe.
    Who then knows whence it has arisen?
    Whether God's will created it, or whether He was mute;
    Perhaps it formed itself, or perhaps it did not;
    Only He who is its overseer in highest heaven knows,
    Only He knows, or perhaps He does not know. (Rig veda, Nasdiya Sukta,10.129)

    This universe was arisen from Purusha. It has already existed and ever will be. (Rig veda, Purusha Sukta 10.90)

    I hope I have described prominent pros and cons.
    Edit- I amended some errands


  • @Zack-Williamson wow! I thought the caste system was abolished already.
