Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?

Quotations
Religion
The one who on demand of time, situation and circumstances can carry out an
act whenever, whatever, however is necessary for the benefit of all...is religious;
the rest all are irreligious.
-Deep Trivedi
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa "Ramakrishna Paramahamsa"
When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.
-Robert M. Pirsig

-Hitopadesa "Hitopadesa"
Religion. A daughter of Hope and Fear, explaining to Ignorance the nature of the Unknowable.
-Ambrose Bierce
Those who think religion is about belief don’t understand religion, and don’t understand belief.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
The modern habit of doing ceremonial things unceremoniously is no proof of humility; rather it proves the offender’s inability to forget himself in the rite, and his readiness to spoil for everyone else the proper pleasure of ritual.
-C. S. Lewis "C. S. Lewis"
I want Jesus to come back and say 'THATS NOT WHAT I MEANT!'
-Margaret Cho
We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate
our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being
clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper.
This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and
positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it
is for you.
-Deep Trivedi
