People thought Buddhism was non violent until the Rohingya killing in Myanmar happened.

Hindus don't but others do. Kerala state for example eats great beef delicacies. India is also the largest exporter of beef above Brazil. So I suppose they are beef after dead. The current right wing, national Hindu nationalist government passed a law banning beef but many states refused to abide, there was also an uproar. Elections after all matter. That's why Kerala never had a BJP party government that in power nationally. Kerala is also communist, multi cultural, prosperous, communal riots free which consists of one third Hindus, Muslims and Christians each. Kerala state slogan is... God's Own Country.

The best thing about them is it has fantastic naturopathy centers, you go and check in for two weeks, eat their food, follow their schedules, take their herbal medicines, check out mobiles, computers, get fully personalized attention (not in groups) and come out detoxed and healthy. It works wonders to your body and mind.

Here are some beef delicacies from Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana - all Southern states.

Just like in the US, there are always against the Northern states but not for the same reason. The South Indians think they are Dravidians - the original torch bearers and guards of Hinduism free from race mixing from Muslim, Greek, Iranian, Afghan invaders for over 1,000 years - while the North thinks they are Aryans and have a superior culture. They have the same gods but all customs and traditions are different. Interracial, cultural and language marriages are not common. The skin color in the South is mostly dark while the North have taller, fair skin genes tracing back to Afghan and Persian heritage.

Lol.... Go for it

You left out giants, sea monsters and death rays.

According to Bertrand Russell: "In the Bible there is not one word in praise of intelligence nor is any humor to be found."

Through animal sacrifices to Gods?

This is not “getting meat”. It’s animal sacrifice and it gets really sick. [cnn.com]

@FreethoughtKaty Sacrifice, sports hunting, fashion merchandise or food, we are still slaughtering animals for our particular purposes.

@jlynn37

We don't eat animals scarified in god rituals.

@St-Sinner When one kills an animal for sport and mounts it's head on the wall in the trophy room and most likely eats the remainder, what is that animal sacrifice for or to whom?

@jlynn37

Seems like you don't understand what animal sacrifice in religion is about. You are talking irrelevant things.

@St-Sinner You see it your way, I see it my way.

@jlynn37

That is a fair statement.

@jlynn37 there is nothing immoral about eating. We eat to live. It is unnecessary to torture an animal before eating it. Causing unnecessary suffering is immoral.
