SHRI S.P. ATTRI'S ARTICLES
THE HUE AND HUB OF THE
RELIGIONS OF EXCLUSIVITY
By S.P. Attri (USA)
1. Abject faith in superstitions, confutations, &
mendacities of the type found in the exclusivity religions
of Islam & Christiantiy and construed as divine revelations
by their adherents, is totally unscientific &
anti-intellectual. Besides lacking facts of actuality, these
two religions are afloat in the grossest perversions of
history that it is possible to make & obedience to them is ,
ipso facto, a subjugation of the human intellect &
unsettlingly unfair to all alert unbiased souls who are
forced to revolt against the absurdities & dashing
hypocrisies that are masquerading as the word of God in the
Koran & the Bible.
2. Both Christianity & Islam, from head to toe, are semitic
religions, and both got their initial kick-start from the
tent-dwelling, wandering Desert Bedouins of Arabia. These
nomadic desert tribes, through their fructuous imagination,
created a God and this God resembled its creators. He loved
and hated what these nomadics loved & hated and was
invariably on the side of those who were in power. Through
their castle-building fecundity, these nomadics created a
far-off place or planet which they named as the Heaven (a
place of endless mirth & merry-making) where their God
dwelled & from his starry throne in Heaven, he frequently
came down to earth majestically, via an apostle or
intermediary messenger (the privileged prophet) who claimed
to have received revelation from this God, revealed once &
for all to him, all in flawless utter perfection.
Consequently, a new prophet could always maintain that his
revelation was more authentic & more perfect than those of
his predecessors & there is nothing in the dogmas of either
Islam or Christianity that proves or shows that this claim
could be invalid. What has happened before, can happen
again. Initially these divine apostles or messengers were a
guild of professional psychics, diviners, and clairvoyants
who acted as consultants to the kings of Arabia but as time
went on, they gradually matured into prophets, representing
a specific tendency or belief that they heard God speak to
them during moments of revelation (Note: Modern psychiatry
can easily recognize most of these receptions as
well-defined & well-understood Auditory Hallucinations &
Pathological Syndromes). They scared their people with dire
threats of Hell-fire, that the hour of reckoning is near at
hand, that this God from Heaven will come & wipe out all
those who have opposed or neglected this One and Only One
True God. These prophetic utterances were accepted by the
believers in those days as God's own words.(There was no
psychiatry in those days to refute these Auditory
Hallucinations as Psycho-pathological Syndromes, which is
what they were).
3. What is most dumb-founding about this God of the
prophetic religions (Islam & Christianity) is that he
flaunts proclitives & temperaments that are so familiar to
us because they occur so commonly in human beings. For
instance, whenever people failed to worship this Bedouin God
or failed to feed or clothe his priests (an act considered
to be inspired by an "imaginary" Devil), he visited them
with pestilence or famine or glutted his vengeance by
murdering them. This jealous, revengeful, tyrant God
promised abundant mirth & merry-making here & hereafter to
all his slavish followers & issued the bully's threatening
calls to eternally punish in Hell all those who either
disbelieved in his existence or suspected that some other
God might be his equal or superior. This uncalled-for
untruth was easily passed on by declaring all competitive
beliefs & Gods as the works of a nasty hateful "Imaginary"
Devil & by issuing thundering & threatening proclamations to
wage "un-essential" unremitting wars against those who
question their religion or who refuse to submit & succumb to
its doctrines & dogmas. As matters stand, their doctrines &
dogmas, do not constitute any eternal or everlasting truths,
either now in the present or in future in time to come, as
claimed by their adherents but put through very simply the
customs, habits, and culture of the Bedouin people of Arabia
that prevailed in either 100 AD or 600 AD. The basic
impulses that are sturdily embeded in these two religions of
exclusivity (Islam & Christianity) are fear, conceit,
superstition, intolerance, and extreme hatred and the
attendant passions that thrust their way through due to
these undesirable impulses are what forms the HUB AND HUE OF
ISLAM AND CHRISTIANITY.
4. The way things stand now, the archaic customs, habits,
and routines of these ancient nomadic tribes of those ages
have acquired a status of fixity, permanence, and an air of
respectability as a result of having been cited in the two
books of Koran & Bible as Divine Revelations & Sanctions
(which they are not!). Historically, these
Divinely-construed Revelations have launched malevolent
mischiefs & diabolical perturbances par excellence by adding
elements of powerful passions, frenzy, fury and fanaticism
in the minds of their adherents. Through these unworthy
passionate urges, the books of Bible & Koran have let loose
the followers of Christianity & Islam to indulge these
passions without limit or restraint with the result that
their followers have appointed themselves as God's Police
Force On Earth to enforce their God's system. It shoud be
understood that it is because of these specifics
proclamations of Divine Sanctions in the Bible & Koran, that
Christianity & Islam have become such frightful forces of
fiendish evil in the world. It should be absolutely clear
that without the proclamations of these Divine Revelations
in the Bible & the Koran, the Christians & Moslems otherwise
might have been able to control their Savage Passions of
Barbaric Terror to some degree.
5. After creating their God, the Desert Bedouins did not
just stop at that. Through their fabricative imagination
they conjured up another creature of nullity which they
named as the Satan or the Devil (supposedly created by their
God initially) & who is always at war with their jealous,
tyrant God & who is supposedly responsible for everything
that goes wrong in the world. If their God had possessed any
smarts of omni-science, he would have known ahead of time
that this Devil would be revolting against him and,
therefore, would not have created this Devil in the first
place. But their God did create this nasty, hateful Devil,
thereby demonstrating explicityly that this God was not
omni-scient & did not know the consequences of his
injudicious action ahead of time and was, therefore, no God
of any worth or merit. With a little reflection it is also
possible to see that the real purpose of the Desert Bedouins
in creating this creature of non-existence (i.e. the Devil)
was to avoid responsibility for their actions, to pass the
buck, and to find a scape goat to lame for things that go
wrong in the world & then to make this scape goat the object
of their invetrate hate. This creature of non-existence (the
Devil) served another important function to the Christian
and Islamic clergies by helping them to scare & startle
their people, to fill their heart with absolute terror &
fright and to snare them into their net. It is because of
this reason that the reality of non-existence of the Devil
does not raise any eye-brows in either Islam or Christianity
& both Moslems & Christians continue to unendingly subscribe
to the ludicrous buffoonery of this "Institution Of The
Devil." There are hundreds of very similar & equally absurd
concepts of moral & intellectual perfidy in both Islam &
Christianity & Moslems and Christians accept these ludicrous
absurdities as unyielding truths without ever so much as
daring to question them. This is because sedulous training
from earliest childhood prepares them, to treat these
preposterous absurdities as Divine Truths, as words straight
from God and anything contrary to them as just Devil Talk
i.e. the Words Of The Devil. Thus this cloak of Divine
Sanction, around the otherwise totally absurd books (Koran &
Bible) enables to the Islamic & Christian Clergies the
passing of preposterous myths among their congregations an
easy task.
6. Another outlandish attribute of these two religions of
exclusivity is their "Personalization Of God." For instance,
Christianity preaches the "Fatherhood Of God" & extolls his
offspring of "Son." If God is the Father and has a Son, then
it is reasonable to infer that this Father God must also
have his grandsons, his daughters, grand daughters, and
great grand daughters etc. There is no way to escape notice
that this Decorous Divine structure of Personal God is
dressed up in the manner of the structure of the tribal
family of the desert Bedouins, the people who knitted this
web of fairy tales. It must not be forgotten that this
religous braid (of Islam & Christianity) is overlain by &
weaved through ceremonial traditions, prophetic edicts,
sermons, traditions of animal sacrifice, and a host of
priest-craft (i.e. the church Fathers of Christianity & the
Mullahs, Maulvies, & other Ulema of Islam). It is worth
noting that nearly 70% of the dogmas of Islam & Christianity
are nearly interchangeable in substance & essence. This is
because both Islam & Christianity have borrowed their dogmas
from the Old Testament & both reflect the customs, routines,
& practices of the nomadic tribes of Arabia, who knitted
together these Arabian Night type stories of the Bible & the
Koran & imparted an elegant label of "Divine Sanction" to
them. Inside the wild jungle of mis-matched fantasy castles
(braided together by the nomadics), which lacked complete
rapport, over the centuries the Christian churches & its
priests became more & more concerned & molded to creeds &
dogmas in the name of Christianity. During this shaping
(Christianization) process, they desired to augment the
power of their church because it augmented their own
personal power also, to dominate people's lives. Many of the
priests were more likely so doubtful secretly of the
soundness of their elaborately embellished dogmas that they
would brook no discussion of it & over time became
absolutely intolerant of doubts, discussions, & questions on
these dogmas, not because they were sure of their faith, but
because they were not & dogmatism with its attendant
intolerance took care of the problem for them. As the
dogmatism of the Church hardened in this manner, it
persecuted heretical bodies with ever increasing attention,
energy, pursuit, & violence and preached crusades against
those troublesome enquirers who dare examine the
deficiencies & inadeqacies of the Christian religion or
refuse to express full confidence in the Christian religion.
7. As a result of the above developments, the legacy of
superstitions & confutations continues unabated in both
Christianity & Islam right down to this date & is being
forcefully propagated in the world of today under the label
of "The Word Of God." No Christian or the Moslem has the
intestinal fortitude to expose the rank absurdities of their
religion or to provide a refutation to them. Just like the
Christians & in fact more so, the Moslems keep their troops
(faithfulls) in line through the device of deadly FATWAS
which unnerve most any Moslem who may dare question the
sufficiency or deficiency of Koran or the Islam.
Historically, dogmatism has come in extremely handy to Islam
in its expansion. From the very first day of Islam, Islam
has been energetically going at flank speed, capturing
country after country, in the name of Islam & their merciful
& compassionate Allah (the touting of merciful &
compassionate Allah provides a benign cover to masquerade
their violent military moves to subjugate all humanity to an
Islamic empire & making everybody in the world surrender to
their merciful & compassionate Allah). Islam has been
expanding with use of religion of Islam as their flag &
ideology to justify & sanction its brutal conquests,
forcible conversions, and point-of-sword subduing of
non-Islamic people. Like their earlier Christian
counterparts, Moslems also have had similarly-held doubts &
anxieties about the revelations of Koran & the ensuing
doctrines. Because these doctrines are the product of
knowledge of the seventh century desert nomadic Arabia but
are projected by Islam as eternal values, each advance of
scientific knowledge came as a threat to the Moslem Clergy,
because they called into question the revelation & doctrines
of Islam & the authority of the Prophet himself. To keep
these anxieties at bay & to remove the threats to Islam, the
Moslem Clergy (the Ulema) within 200 years of the Prophet's
death, decreed that the doors of "Ijtihad" (i.e. the right
to interpret the Islamic book) have been closed. They
explained their action by stating that this was being done
because no pious Moslems were left who could give reliable
interpretations of Koran. Literal adherence shall be the
rule henceforth, therefore, with a stamp of finality.
Because of this embaro on Ijtihad, Moslems have been
slavishly following the doctrines of the Islamic past &
rulings on them issued as FATWAS by the Ulema. It is a case
of false reverence of the past enforced through FATWAS in
which the Moslems find their security in totally & blindly
following these absurd doctrines of the past as fidelty to
their faith & this has been the real cause & the biggest
cause of the ossification & dense backwardness of the
Islamic societies in the world that we see.
8. From the moment the Prophet acquired control of Medina,
Islam became linked with the power of the state, with
complete amalgamation of the church & the state & Islam
determined for its state the rules of rulership & provided
rationalization for their application. The Ulema acquired
enormous say in applying this law (Shariat) and they to this
day issue FATWAS & exercise decisive say in the day to day
life of a Moslem, encompassing every detail of his life.
Because of this all-encompassing control of a Moslem's life,
Islam is a totalitarian religion (ideology) because it
regulates the totality of a Moslem's life. Because of this
distinctive totalitarian feature, the Ulema have acquired
such a wise-like grip over the life of the Moslems who are
in such awe of the Ulema. Ulema make sure that the seventh
century desert Arabia is not just merely a model but a mould
to fit in for all Moslems. If any indolent Moslem dares to
question any edict of Koran (even by mistake), he gets
echoes upon echoes of allegations from the Ulema who brand
it as a naked assault on Islam. This shuts out the few
daring questioners who dare think for themselves. In India,
the Ulema maintain a parallel structure of courts (the
Shariat Courts) which is completely outside the legal court
system of the country & loudly shout that if Shariah goes,
Islam goes. This kind of vociferous recitation is more than
enough to force any liberal (and spineless) Indian
politician to back down.
9. Hinduism has always comprehended the existence of good &
evil & the struggle between the two as a continuous &
necessary reality of life in the universe & has no need for
an imaginary bogus creature such as the Devil. The profound
mystery of this dualistic phenomenon appears in Hinduism
literature again & again via symbols & poetic expressions &
is well understood by the Hindus. The universally just,
ethically sublime, and 100% moral principles of Karma &
Reincarnation were discovered by the Hindu sages, seers, &
Rishis eons ago. There is nothing like these profound &
sublime principles in either Islam or Christianity who
continue to guide their lives according to the absolutely
false, ethically pervert, & highly depraved principles of
the "Doctrine Of Original Sin" and the "Doctrine Of The Day
Of Judgment" both of which only destroy the justice system
of the world & multiply crime in the world.
It must be remembered that the lofty, sublime, elegant, and
magnificiently moral principles of Hinduism were produced &
developed under excellent economic condition of ancient
India by sages & seers who had unlimited opportunity to
apply their creative minds to do some real hard thinking on
the ultimate questions of life. As contrasted to that, the
conditions in desert Arabia in centuries gone by were
totally different. Devastation, poverty, harsh life, loose
morals, cranks, and wanton wiles were the order of the day
to survive in the Arabia of those days. Because of this, the
Semitic religions that could & did develop under such
illiberal, mean, harsh, & oppressive conditions of Arabia
were predatory, immoral, & militaristic, controlled by the
rules of plunder & "Might Is Right" principles. These
religions were totally intolerant of competitive ideas &
concepts and the military success of these two religions
(Islam & Christianity) aggrandized unspeakable evil in the
world for centuries to come after their appearance.
Christian & Islamic record of centuries contains within it,
abundant warnings of impending dangers to Hinduism, which if
unheeded at this late stage, would make it impossible for
Hindus to turn the tide & escape the terible onslaughts
which are sure to follow against the Hindus if Hindus don't
wake up to the challenges of Islam & Christianity. Speedily
& unsuspectingly, both Islam & Christianity are
strengthening their forces in India to further their evil
imperialistic designs. All they need now is a vantage ground
& this is already being provided to them by the
pseudo-liberal policies of the Indian Government. We are now
entering a time & period of history in which a battle
between the religions of exclusivity (Islam & Christianity)
and a religion of Inclusivity (Hinduism) is shaping up with
rapidity & Hindus need to be prepared for this impending
upcoming big battle.
Willing or not, ready or not, consequences of this battle
affect all Hindus. Our Hindu way of life, our Hindu desire
for liberty, freedom from oppression, from brutality &
religious intolerance (from Exclusivity Religions), our
Hindu faith, our families, our educational system, our Hindu
culture, our Hindu identity, which many Hindus have taken
for granted, are now all in jeopardy. No Hindu will be
exempted from the consequences of this battle with the
religions of exclusivity. It would be smart for all Hindus
to unite forthwith & get ready, without ever forgetting,
that both Islam & Christianity, are determined to subdue &
decimate the idolatrous, Kafir Hindus of India. There is a
massive volume of high-powered commandments in both the
Koran & the Bible, commandments which diligently instruct
them to hate the idolatrous Kafir Hindus & to send them to
perdition and tons of Islamic & Christian money is flowing
into India to assist them to do that Divinely Sanctioned
Task.
In the words of an eminent Hindu writer, Sita Ram Goel,
Honest Gangsters do their dirty work (aggression, massacres,
plunder, pillage, enslavement & the rest) in a
straight-forward mannner. "I want your land, your wealth,
your women and children & you yourself as my slaves.
Surrender or I will kill you." Dishonest Gangsters ( Islam &
Christianity) have done the same dirty work in the name of
the "Only True God. "God is not needed by them except as an
alibi. Communists have done the same in the name of History,
and the Nazis did it in the name of the Master Race. It
behooves us Hindus, therefore, to be forewarned.
