HAPPY AGNOSTIC / ATHEIST DAY

It is surprising that there are people predicting the arrival of World War III whereas  from the blood dripping from most newspaper articles and TV channels it seems to have already arrived. Mostly being waged as life by the sword
History tells us that the first thing that  gets devastated by war or war -like conditions is the economy . Productive resources get diverted to defensive ones and progress marks time on the spot. This affects life of all in a 360  degree manner. We seem to be already in that state.
Tolerance and understanding are the only long term stabilizers .
Pained by the bloodshed and violence this is my effort to give respect and acknowledge the Right of every Creature to not share my Beliefs
or acknowledge Truth ,the way it appears to me ,
and let's not kill each other over the difference !

Your  saying " there is no God " will not make Mine disappear just as my saying " There HE is " make Him appear to you
===
Believe nothing,
No matter where you read it
Or who has said it,
Not even if I have said it,
Unless it agrees with your own reason
And your own common sense.
Buddha

Ancient Roman tombstone
Do not pass by my epitaph, traveler.
But having stopped, listen and learn, then go your way.
There is no boat in Hades, no ferryman Charon,
No caretaker Aiakos, no dog Cerberus.
All we who are dead below
Have become bones and ashes, but nothing else.
I have spoken to you honestly, go on, traveler,
Lest even while dead I seem talkative to you.

Most importantly :
Men never commit evil so fully and joyfully as when they do it for religious convictions.
Blaise Pascal
============
....and in Indian conditions especially

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.
