I never value the question whether God exists or not. This question, in fact we have been asking from the very dawn of history is inept and fruitless. What does not matter is there is a God or there is no God. Your God if you have one is not going to get you out of the mire of poverty, nor he rescues you or salvages you out of the disaster if you are hemmed in.

That there is God and he created the universe and billion billions of galaxies are ruled by him is a rubbish notion. OK if you believe in God is a private matter and keep it to yourself and use it publicly but sparingly.

I do not say God exists or not for I can not prove it is not there and neither I can prove it is there.

Godheads or prophets appeal to me immensely. The Buddha and Christ's teachings have some telling effects on my lfe.

All I believe in human values. Altruism, philanthropy really appeal to me. I think we can immensely benefit from such things than tangling ourselves by the question of God. Fundamentalism is setting in growingly and they are branching out expansively. There is more friction, more violence in the name of religions.

Fanaticism is creeping up and they do out of their great passion for a particular belief system. Nazism was the upshot of a religious passion springing up in the regime of Adolf Hitler. He was a devout Christian and gassed countless innocent to death. There was a question of religion.

I apologize if it hurts some who have faiths in a religion or in religions. I never mean a religion can be a vicious subject. No, the application of it wrongfully .

The one and only thing I am totally interested in is humanity. and if a religion serves humanity and if it does not impede this cause then I have no comment.

I do not say religions have always done disservice and damage. No. Mother Teresa and some missionaries have dome the marvelous.

This thread will remain open in good faith of the moderators that it will not turn into another religious 'bickering'.
