Then you would disown the book which rails agonist “kaffirs” and “polytheists” and calls them the “worst of creatures.”

Given that this is part of a religious belief and considered the “word of god” it is far more toxic and dangerous than a #CharlieHebdo cartoon.
#CharlieHebdo is a joke, it is meant for laughs.

I wish the absurd beliefs in eternal heaven and hell and “God’s only son” and “last prophet” were also taken as jokes and not taken seriously by grown men.

I’d have no problems with these then.
You can go ahead and find all the verses against kaffirs and polytheists in your book. Now imagine for a moment all those verses were against Muslims with "proper context." Would you not find these verses hateful? You need courage to examine this.

This is a good academic reference of all the verses against kaffirs and also their violent implementation by "true believers." So let's not spin away their effects. @waseemsayed

digital.lib.washington.edu/researchworks/…
Banal words like "ever merciful" mean nothing. They are simply words. They'll be judged on their effects, not the spin. And the effect is barbaric invasions and slaughter, effect is Al Qaeda and Taliban and Boko Haram and #ISIS. It is terror, not mercy.

This is a disingenuous. The Taliban spent a lifetime studying the Koran. #ISIS leader Baghdadi was a Ph.D. in Islamic studies. Saying this is all "misinterpretation" doesn't help the #Yezidi killed and enslaved by Islamic zealots. You avoid the issues.

What if your "Holy Book" insults me? It holds me as "worst of creatures" as a polytheist. It insults my devas when it rails against "there is no God but Allah." It insults my guru and *your* Imām Mahdi. It kills Ahmediyas. You defend your own slaughter.

They mean nothing because the actions of those who claim to follow them are anything but "merciful." So clearly they mean nothing to all the brutal invaders on whose sword Islam was spread. Using them you mock the suffering of those killed, like #Yezidi.

Feel free to. But then don't go around claiming that you "respect all beliefs" and you "religion teaches you not to insult others" and that is why #CharlieHebdo is wrong.

Own your hate and bigotry. At least be honest.

So you won't be insulted if I declare your religion false and fabricated? So you mean your prophet was delusional to make up a false religion? I hope you won't consider this insulting, because I'm not trying to insult you, just to understand your point.

Is that why you riot when “insulted”?

It would be good if you can compile a list of all of the verses of "Allah's word" which are "invalid" today. Maybe even crowd-source it. Once there is a full list you can cc the Taliban and #ISIS & Boko Haram and Al Qaeda since no one sent them the memo.

Shouldn't your lessons about "peace and understanding" be directed towards #ISIS, Taliban, #AlQaeda, #LeT and so many other groups. They'd say you're bs'ing about #jihad not being valid today. Let me know how it goes—and do tell them you're Ahmediya too.

Actually the West is being Hinduised. Without any petro$ or "dawa", millions around the world are embracing yoga, chanting OM, doing kirtan and Hindu goddess worship.

When they become Hindu they meditate for world peace.

And in the other case? *Boom*.

From the Newsweek cover story “We are all Hindus now.”

Of course. Why do you think I speak up for Yezidi and Native American and all the other indigenous traditions of the world brutalized by two predatory religions.

https://t.co/Xu7y5H8lcU
I honor all indigenous traditions of the world. They don’t need to convert or be “Hindu.” They follow their own ways, true for them.

Two monopolistic religions declare all others (and each other) “false.” This belief engenders violence in the world.

Medical arrogance.

Many "modern" medicine are also extracts of herbs. But the pharma industry relies on dismissing the original because it can't be patented and yields much less profit.

And they'll attack scientific studies which don't fit their prejudice and pocketbook. Image
Here is an example of @theliverdr misleads and misreads even their own research in even simple things like whether drinking more water is helpful for health.

With his initial list of "debunking" why drinking water doesn't help, he cites the following article:



Let's dive into it.mcgill.ca/oss/article/he…Image
@theliverdr In the article, @drlabos says, there is "no real advantage to drinking more water", and one can routinely get water via food.

In this article he cites a single study to back his claims, saying "drinking more water did not offer any benefit for kidney function."

Let's read it. Image

This is path-breaking if validated.

The IVC is Sanskrit script with Puranic references!
I will post explanations and queries from the paper. It uses a unique cryptographic approach to decipher the IVC script. More technical people need to do history. @yajnadevam

It makes the case that the script maps to a language, and uses regex to map it to Sanskrit.
@yajnadevam First question:

"The seal Dmd-1 single jar sign matches ana and eliminates other alternatives like ja and la."

Why are ja and la being eliminated? Image

Over 50% of White Liberal Women have a Mental Health issue.

This thread is not to mock them, mental health issues are serious and real. But here are some insights into why "progressives" may disproportionately suffer from mental health issues. 🧵 Image
Evie has a somewhat conservative take on this: "Progressivism is an ideology that supposedly demands quality for all, and one that keeps score to an exhausting degree.... that isn't just unrealistic, it's unsustainable." Image
In a dharmic gaze, equality is not only unrealistic, it is unnatural. So an ideological obsession for equality is a constant fight against nature.

From an Indic point of view, anything that takes us away from the Real, will lead to mental issues.

U.S. has world’s highest rate of children living in single-parent households.

If this the society to emulate? Image
“Older adults in the U.S. are more likely than those around the world to age alone: More than a quarter of Americans ages 60 and older live alone (27%), compared with a global average of 16%.”

You want this for your life?

pewresearch.org/short-reads/20…
Research shows that children raised in single parent households show impaired cognitive development and also a higher incidence of mental health issues.

So we build a less able next generation… is this a desired societal outcome?

BJP has a great fear of doing something for "their own" in case they're accused of favoritism.

So they consistently bend over to woo those who hate them and do very little for those who vote for and support them.

It's virtue taken to an extreme where it becomes its opposite.
Congress otoh starts its agenda on Day 1. It is very clear about its constituencies and its supporters and always takes care of them first.

The BJP is keen to appease the "opposite camp" instead and scared to do anything that might upset them. It doesn't mind riding roughshod over its supporters. They can even be killed, as in WB, and it won't act. Because someone could perceive it as "favoritism." It's a mental liability.

There are no "irreversible changes." Congress will change things the day that come back to power. Meanwhile BJP lost 10 years and an entire generation fed on toxic textbooks. They could have reinstated MM Joshi's books in a day. Just cowardice.

Many manual scavengers of today can be traced back to the Muslim invasions.

"scholars such as Malkani (1980) among others established that the Bhangis (manual scavengers) were warriors who made captives after they became the prey to the enemy, particularly Muslim invaders..." Image
So warriors aka kshatriyas, became bhangis due to Islamic force. So much for Islam being "emancipatory"—they created dalits.

"The people who were made captives were
forced to clean indoor latrines and to dispose of the night soil. When these captives were set free, they were not allowed to live in society, and they thus formed a separate caste of Bhangis and continued the work of scavenging.Image
And manual scavenging become widespread due to the other "emancipators of dalits", the British.

Manual scavenging "was expanded along with the expansion of towns or cities over the last two hundred years... it was legalized and spread across India during the British period." Image
