Religion

act whenever, whatever, however is necessary for the benefit of all...is religious;
the rest all are irreligious.
-Deep Trivedi

same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are

instead of the talks and teachings of Buddha, Jesus and Krishna, they were
presented with the Bible and Vedas concocted by the religious gurus.
