We Need No Religion

Edit Post: The text going to follow is the reproduction of what I gave as a persuasive speech. I wanted to write something on the same lines for quite a long time. Writing about something, which you truly believe gives you a high for sure.

(Also, there is some problem with indentations and font,will rectify later,bear for the time being)

Neanderthal Hunter was the most uncomplicated form of human life. He was naked and so were his needs, to the bare minimum, almost transparent. But, as man progressed tearing across human limitations and boundaries, not only did he find new ways to comfort himself, he exchanged it by making his life much more convoluted.

When Man first discovered fire, he was neither a Ram, Jesus nor Mohammed. He was what he actually is. A mechanical assemblage of parts meant to be dictated by his own needs and desire, not by some mythical dogma. When he roasted the food for the first time and raised all of us to a new pedestal, he was doing what he is best at. WORK. I have always believed that faith makes a man strong. But, the way in which religion has been distorted, couldn’t be far from disturbing, which makes me question the existence of the same. Why do we need Religion? The answer, is pretty simple,

WE NEED NO RELIGION

Have you seen a transition of faith to fanaticism, from beliefs to bullshit? Well! This world has,oflate. INDIA, the land of GREAT CULTURE and HERITAGE is also a land of mother of all double standards, is also a land of illogical Customs and practices

Let’s face it,Religion is this country's favorite pastime. There are debates on Taj Mahal belonged to whom?Shah Jahan or a hindu king?Was it taj mahal or tejo mahal?The answer is, does it really matter? Beauty is not a function of religion.Period.Some years back, there was another argument of the same kind, regarding ayudhya.Was it the land of Hindus or Muslims.What does ayudhya deserve? Ram Mandir or Babri Masjid. I say ,none.If I had my way, I would bombard each and every temple,mosque,church,gurudwara.EACH ONE OF THEM. Wipe everything from the face of this earth that tries differentiating one man from another. And what do we do instead? On the same land, we will build hospitals, schools for children, set up free medical camps. As a DEVELOPING nation, we don't need ostentatious temple like Akshardam,we don't want morons giving crores of rupees to sidhivinayak when thousands of their countrymen die silent deaths on the cold pavement.

As said before, faith is and SHOULD not be a function of pompousness.Our society doesn't need zealots; it needs sensible human beings. Not someone who is devoted to gods and indifferent to its own beings.

So, let's try driving this society to a point where it is no longer betrayed, no longer
fragmented, no longer raped. Where every man be empowered within himself, not faithless but replete with faith, where work be his only form of worship and where he finds god not in some golden temple, but within himself, in the hearts of his fellow beings. And as Dalai Lama said," This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness
