If you think even for a moment, how much valuable resources and precious time
of the world is being eaten up by these so-called religions in exchange of "false

come up instead.
-Deep Trivedi

this skill of ours works...because there is no dearth of intelligent people in this
world.
-Deep Trivedi

then, embracing the world you will be able to tread the path of progress.
-Deep Trivedi
God has no religion.

I am for religion, against religions.
