This is a hilarious article written by India’s Consul General at SFO about an event on a plane.
“I am a Hindu. Do you know anything about it?” I asked, though it was clear that to even begin to explain the concepts and complexities of something so alien to her was an impossible task.
“No. I know very little. But can I tell you one more thing? Do you know anti-Christ?” she asked again with complete concentration on her question and total indifference to mine.
“No. But do you know some Hindu beliefs?” I persisted.
“We don’t have much time. Please remember one thing. A huge war will come. The anti-Christ will try to put a mark on everyone’s wrist. The Book called it a mark. We now think it will be like a chip. The devil will put a chip under everyone’s skin to control them. It may start here in California, as the devil needs many chips. Please remember what I am saying. If someone tries to put a chip, do not accept. If they say they will kill you, let them, but do not get the chip put. If you die, remember what I said. You will go straight to heaven. You look like a nice person. Don’t you want to go to heaven?” she asked breathlessly as the vast spread of Los Angeles appeared below from the windows of the aircraft.
Her serene frame, her kind tone, her deep eyes all implored me to accept this, should I face the choice one-day.
“But I am a Hindu. Please don’t misunderstand me. We believe in rebirth or in the liberation from the cycle of life and death. Not in heaven,” I protested gently as the plane touched the ground.
Her eyes looked glazed and she appeared devastated. “Just remember what I said. Don’t accept the chip,” she concluded, while gathering her bags.
Everyday when I read the news and some story on America pops up, it’s always the same. People going to the courts because they want to believe in the seven-day story of creation; wanting to control other people’s private lives – when they die, when they can abort, whether they can abort, whether a man can love another man and a woman another woman.
It is quite scary to even imagine that a country of fools is the superpower of the world today, and that it is even led by a person who believes sincerely that he’s started the 21st Century Crusades with the Iraq war!
I’ll let you read Prakash’s article, but first, leave a comment on where you think America is heading with its Conservative Right – which is ruling now!

A crystal is what knowledge is, it was however fallen through-below a murky sea. They throw an anchor from a sea, making it stuck, and it will still be stuck if they don’t do something about it.
But at present, they are confused. How has the anchor reacted? Did it undergo magnetic fusion with the seabed-rocks? Being sailors, they thus conjecture, not knowing that they might be on the mark.
However, religious zealots are people who blindly believe fiction. Blindly believing, they are deserving of the ignorance to which they are bound. Moreover, their erroneous impression is that the vague, error-prone religious scriptures are an evidence in support of their faith.
But, Occam’s razor speaks differently. What Occam’s razor is, is a rational principle. Telling us what not to believe, it protects our rationality.
Fantasy and reality merge together, though, and when the dangerous thrill of the unknown takes seize of everything that is living–then, only, can change occur. Then, only, is evolution able to take place!
Evolution contrasts itself to nihilism. It’s in contrast to abandoning the anchor, forever in its depth. Having made that clear, it is now time for us to raise the anchor. We have reached the time to think rationally.
Is God real? The negative is concluded, given that Time Cube’s proven true, meaning that a 1-corner God cannot be.
Time Cube, however, has four corners. Four corners.
