> We don't have to respect religions as we have to respect people.

Why must we respect people, and why does that not include their religion?

 Exactly, that’s the impression it gives me when non-religious people want to silence those who dare to oppose different religions. By doing so, they think they’re on the side of tolerance, while they’re complicit in oppression from religions…

I realize that religion has always been a highly political body, which hasn’t been able to apply the deep truths of the laws of Nature to the moral needs of humanity. Gurus are powerless to understand ancient science & secret of Mysteries. https://image.nostr.build/3ac72cc350ed1ff4eaa92846587e6cd6bd3fa4e39e17c398235d8bba7111380d.jpg
