My assessment is that Nasci Caldeira is prejudiced against Hinduism and Sikhism. He has also personalized my general criticism of theistic religion, and become erroneously convinced that I am attacking his religion, in particular, when I am doing no such thing. Nasci Caldeira has now acquired the habit of being personally abusive and obnoxious in response to simple questions about religious beliefs, which were not even directed at him. > >Does your science only leads a tirade against >'Christian Beliefs' in the name and under cover of >Science? > Many beliefs of Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, etc. contradict Science.

For instance, Science contradicts Hindu cosmology, astrology, ayurveda, reincarnation and miracles. > >Not a word from you! > Nonsense! I have challenged and criticized all harmful Hindu beliefs and practices. Please see my response to Gilbert. Please go through the Goanet and Goa-Goans archives to find my criticisms against the following Hindu practices: 1. Casteism 2. Astrology 3. Vastushashtra 4. Quackery in the name of Ayurveda 5. Vedic Mathematics 6. Hindutva philosophy and historical revisionism 7. Hindu godmen such as Satya Sai Baba 8. Hindu cults such as ISKCON 9. Hindu miracles and miracle hysteria such as lactophilic Ganesh idols 10. Contradictions in the Bhagvad Gita. 11. Hindu pseudospiritualism 12. Unwaranted bloated depictions of the knowledge and achievements of our ancestors. > >Are u a fundamentalist hindu under disguise of an >agnostic? > No. > >Are you implying that multiple hindu gods are >Scientist proven and accepted, but not Jesus as God? > No. > >Are U saying that Bhudhists and Zorastrians and >Muslims and Sikhs and Jains etc have their beliefs and >practices proven scientifically? > No. > >I do not know; I think you are confusing Science with >Religion and trying to 'create confusion' within >Christian and other religions and covering up the >beliefs of your own religion. > You are mistaken.

In all my posts I have only pointed out the conflict between science/rationality and supernatural religious explanations of the natural world and natural phenomena, irrespective of whether these beliefs come from Christianity, Hinduism or any other religion. I demand an apology in return for Nasci Caldeira's recurrent obnoxious personal attacks against me. In fact, one of the Goanet administrators has already warned this guy privately about his personal invective against me. > >Don't spoil my sleep. > Please don't read my posts. Cheers, Santosh
