Which religion? o_O
Christianity? Like how Rome conquered the world "defensively"?
Islam? Shall I start talking about how you get all those women your right hand is supposed to possess.
Hinduism? Shall I start on Caste system?
But yea, in the absence of religion - people will find...
Don't get me wrong. A lot of urban/educated/moderate muslims practice birth control. I myself have only 2 siblings.
The backward/uneducated/fanatical muslims are the ones overbreeding - based on the same 7th century primitive beliefs I outlined in my previous post.
Here are your reasons

Islam forbids people from practicing even primitive birth control mechanics like Coitus Interruptus - even if you are having sex...
Buddhism orginated from Bodhgaya which is in India.
Most ancient Buddhist literature: "the tripitakas" were written in pali which is a corrupted version of Sanskrit.
On that note, yes, one of the things I like about India is that Siddharth Gotama was born there. If I were forced to...
Haha yeah. I almost always go out of the way to help Indians here, especially students :P. Yeah, I help Pakistani students also. But I always make sure that those Indian lads and lasses are well aware of our generosity :P
Positive note about India: Having been to both India and Pakistan, I can state with a fair degree of confidence that Pakistan is atleast 10-15 years behind India.
Negative note about India: All this glitter is only for the rich/well employed. A common Indian cannot afford all this. A foreign...
Aye for some peace here fellas. What do you like the best about the OTHER country [NOT yours].
India:
1) Education Institutions: IIT for Engineering, AIIMS for Medicine and IIM for Management.
2) Entrepreneurs of India.
India might be superior to Pakistan. But it's definitely inferior to Thimphu :P
Well, here is the only good thing that I like about India. They have some SERIOUSLY good educational institutions like AIIMS, IIT and IIM.
It's Thimphu . . . period.
I've been to Islamabad, Lahore, New Delhi, Mumbai, Kathmandu, Colombo and Thimphu. You guys have NO idea. Thimphu is probably the HAPPIEST place on the face of earth.
Man, I look at you guys and I kinda envy your dedication. And here I am . . . eating 4000 calories every day ... part of my workout regimen :S
Well a cheerful Ramadan to all of you all.
Well Karmic theory is more than metaphorical. Well, I kinda regard it as a metaphorical truth . . but I am sure it means a LOT more than to Hindus. And I just don't understand how a believer of the karma theory finds astrology acceptable.
I don't know about women - but I will tell you something. No physically non-disabled man is incapable of getting "good looks". Personally, I am extremely ugly. But, I've undergone strength training, then strength-endurance training [No to the silly isolation workouts], and now I think I am quite...
1) Einstein also believed that the theory of Quantum Mechanics was wrong. Guess what?
2) To my knowledge .. there is no reason or basis for God. In fact, there isn't even a universal agreement in terms of definition of God. So even if God DOES exist, which "version" of God is the real...
What about Karma theory? Something I had an intense fascination about, in my adolescent years. How is this horoscope BS compatible with the theory of Karma?
Stupid research basically. If you sit and ALSO indulge in a lot of physical activity, you should still be fine. I say - start deadlifting. When you deadlift, your back posture itself changes - you will no longer sit the same.
Of course, most sedentary workers dont workout - and that explains...
