Kinda like the backwood rednecks of India if you will. Technically, I'm a brahmin, a middle/upper-middle caste
[QUOTE=Dr. Fishtastic;25318758]Agnostic Atheist[/QUOTE] You don't know what to believe in not believing there is a god?
[QUOTE=JesterUK;25318694]Why are you no longer a Hindu?[/QUOTE] Well, all my life I've been a skeptic. I've always questioned the logic of God since I was 8 or 9ish, and recently I began reading Sagan's Demon Haunted World and Dawkins' the God Delusion. Those books crumbled the foundation of my already-weak belief in God [editline]06:45PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Akayz;25318784]You don't know what to believe in not believing there is a god?[/QUOTE] Er, no I don't believe in a God, but I don't deny that a God may or may not exist, it's just impossible to flat out prove it either way [editline]06:48PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Tudd;25318743]Have you eaten cow now?[/QUOTE] Yeah, and it's goddamned delicious HOW NOW BROWN COW? :madmax:
Curry is delicious. Do you still eat it?
Eh, was being Hindu really hard or anything?
[QUOTE=pkt;25318971]Eh, was being Hindu really hard or anything?[/QUOTE] Well, it's kind of subjective. I found it hard to believe a lot of the mythos I was told. I had no idea where to place it in a historical context, and with my discovery of science I found it harder to believe that stuff
Did you like hating on casteless people?

Did you ever realise that the Vedic scriptures were like, the coolest thing ever written? They tell you how to lie and get away with it. For example, one guy called Aswatthama died on the battlefield. His elephant was also called Aswatthama. In order to avoid upsetting his friend, Yudhisthira, the guy tells him 'Aswatthama *whispers* [i]the elephant[/i] is dead.' One Upanishad also ends by saying that the entire text could be wrong, no one can know for sure. 'Only upon your death will you truly know the afterlife. ...[i]or will you?[/i]'
[QUOTE=Lolkork;25319642]Which one of these gods do you find to be the most intresting: Brahma, Vishnu or Shiva, Please tell what you thought both after and before.[/QUOTE] Well, my mum worships Ganesha (or Ganapathi, whatever). To be honest, Ganesha was made out of saffron by Paravati, wife of Vishnu, to stop people from entering the home while she bathed. So when Vishnu tried to get it, the kid beat the shit out of him and sent him packing. So Vishnu came back with a massive fuckin' army, and the kid fucks them up too. While he was fighting the second army, Vishu beheaded the kid while he wasn't looking. Paravati went batshit crazy and started annihilating the army with her badass demon powers and the help of other godesses. So to calm her down, they cut off the head of the first animal that passed by the kid's body. That animal was, you guessed it, an elephant. And then they reconciled and shit, and lived happily ever after. I don't deny the myths make great stories though.
Do they make beef curry?
