let's be real. hindus today believe in Ishvara or at least in their personal Bhagavan, even while many often worship several or more devas. and yet wikipedia talks about "hindu atheism" (often with sources from the 19th century) as if there is a significant cohort of hindus who believe in the eternal authorless nature of the vedas (who the fuck cares about the vedas anymore except the upanishads cmon) who dont believe in God. perhaps part of this misconception is the tyranny of christianity which says that if you believe in a predominantly impersonal God you dont believe in God. but I think its mostly just ignorance which leads people to talk about hindu atheism today, as if theres some huge cohort of mimamsakans or classical samkhyans that nobody talks about.

kinda neat how india pops up positively in afrofuturist writings. the indians didnt have an african slave trade like the christians and muslims at the very least.

It's a shame that so many people confuse what Catholicism and Christianity actually teaches with either their own scrupulosity and what they have been taught by simply being dragged into Church and the example that has been shown to them by others. The idea that God is an angry God who's just itching at the chance to blow up on you and throw you into hell. The God who you have to appease by doing all the devotionals perfectly or they aren't going to "count". The God who throws babies into hell or limbo because they happened to not be baptized. When the God of Christianity in reality is the God who is constantly reaching out in love to us to pull us into union with all things good. The God who loves each one of the hairs on our head and the one who knew us before we were formed in the womb. The humble God who came as a poor man from the worst part of Israel to show us sacrificial love instead of a military leader from Jerusalem who won wars against the gentiles and established a powerful kingdom.

Non Christians: "I follow the teachings of Jesus better then any of those hypocritical Christians! The teachings of Jesus are radical!"

Those same people when the teachings of Jesus actually start to get radical and demand radical love for the people they don't like: "uhh well uhh you know it's actually nuanced and uh what about mixed fabrics and uh shellfish!"

if I ever have the chance to eat real wagyu I'd probably eat it tbh. I'd say a prayer to Govinda first of course.

why would a perfect, full, complete and totally divine being not invest some of His creation with divinity after his own? why wouldnt everything He touches have an imprint of the divine?

its so sad that there are only like a thousand samaritans left, when there used to be millions. its kind of stunning when you think that if not for judaism becoming a portable religion separate from the temple cult, there would only be a thousand jews left clinging to the ruins of their second temple in Jerusalem...

one of my new friends who's asian when she asked my ethnicity also asked me my "spiritual ethnicity" and after saying "you mean like rachel dolezal?" I admitted to being an indiabu. I said "I like hinduism and stuff". I did not admit how deep the rabbit hole goes...
