33 Million Gods in India and Not ONE capable of producing Oxygen! Charlie Hebdo

Thank you for your explanation.

The issue is not criticism but ridicule. Neither Hebdo the enlightenment of Harsha nor exercise of liberty or free will as showcased by Arjun.

Muslims may not agree nor understand your religion but when it comes to fundamental rights of horizontal spectrum, they draw the same line for them as for you.

Namaste sir ji,

I couldn't understand what you exactly mean. Can you please elaborate?

Ridicule/mockery is not criticism nor it is reasoning or questioning.

For example:

a) 33 Million Gods in India and Not ONE capable of producing Oxygen!

b) 33 Million deities in India, home of Ayurveda, yet no healthcare or compassion.

Which one is criticism and which one is ridicule and mockery?

No one criticizes polytheism. Have your religious cake and eat it too, any way you want.

People though have different reactions to people taking cow-dung-baths, and banging pots/pans to ward off viruses.

THAT is seen only in India.

This is subhuman behavior - if you will pardon the expression.
Everyone criticizes polytheism actually, you have to be blind to think it doesn't exist. That's basically the point of this thread.

I am exactly of the same same view sir. Whatever they have postedas the cartoon is actually not a sensible cartoon but cheap trolling. Parheps, they were in a hurry to prove that they make the cartoons irrespective of any religion leaning . However, they should have chosen some better event to make some sensible cartoon. Making such cartoons when thousands of people dies is insensible.

Namaste sir.
In fact, we don't want to stop charlie habdo to stop any such cartoons. We don't have any problem with such cartoons unless they are outright abusive.

We have a tradition of question the gods. Arjun questioned Lord Krishna, Parvati Mata asked thousands of questions to Lord Shiva.

We have one famous story of a great writer call Harsha. He has written an all time great book Khandan khand khadya on the possibilities of creation of this universe. He was a great devotee of Lord Shiva. In those days big confrontation was happening between Boudha and Sanatan Hindus on establishing the superiority of their Dharma. Lots of debates used to happen to prove the superiority of their own Dharma. Harsha became the disciple of baudha and learn Buddha philosophy from them and subsequently challenged them for the debate and defeated all of them in debate. Once he went to the temple to do the Darshana of Lord Shiva. Shiva idol turned its face away from Harsha. Because he had betrayed his Buddha teachers,(as the shiva was hindu god. Any other god would have offered him heaven) from whom he had learned the philosophy of Buddhism. Harsha replied to Lord shiva and said that when this Buddhist monks try to show you a lesser God, nobody accept me comes to your rescue , so live your arrogance and give me the darshana.
We have this tradition. Our gods are not beyond questioning , nor they can not give us commands. They can only teach and guide us like Arjuna was guided by lord Krishna. Krishna taught Arjuna and left it to Arjun to decide whether to fight or not. They guide us and then leave us to decide the course of action.
agree with you
there was a difference in this cartoon, it was not at the level of abuse that one targeting muslims faith on repeated occasions

sadly monotheism hardy has any good examples of conduct and behaviour from history to current day to show its followers are better human beings.

Do you think the creator will choose between Virus & Human being?
That is not how it works, both are equal life forms.
