As an atheist Indian (Hindu family), I think ideologies can be criticized.
If you can paint Nazis and white supremacy beliefs in a broad brush, so can you criticize religions which unequivocally sentence people to hell for leaving the religion.
- olcor 8y agoI’m not arguing against criticizing ideologies. I have no intention of republishing what the flagged parent said; I merely pointed out that the criticism needs to be valid, properly sourced and have understanding of nuances. This includes criticism of white supremacists and nazis.
- rohit2412 8y agoFair enough. I am a bit fed up of hearing "all religions are equal and peaceful", something which is objectively false. I have been flagged once and can be banned for "religious flamewar". I didn't know hackernews has blasphemy laws. So I won't comment anymore.
