Man sacrifices infant daughter on tantrik’s advice

[WintersLegion]

We have an insane murderer and an insane accomplice as far as I'm concerned, they both need to go.

I'm just having trouble deciding who's worse, the religious crackpot telling people to sacrifice their children to cure their ailments or the person who actually hears that and goes "sure, that sounds like a great idea!"

The guy that actually did it. It's a lot easier to say things than to go and do it especially since the Tantrik probably didn't have anything to do with the daughter so she was just a stranger to him.

doesn't really get more disgusting or fucked up than this, hopefully he'll be put down like the animal he is.

[Cosmic Janitor]

Flay that son of a bitch and his guru alive.

Hell they did this shit in England sacrificing some young kid just to get some drug dealer off the hook cause they thought that shit would work!!

This is why I love superstition / religion, clearly make the world a better place.

Oh please. Like Hitler, Mussolini, or Stalin committed all of their terrible acts in the name of superstition/religion.

What an ignorant comment to make.

[toxicrusader]

So you'd rather they sit out in their own little pocket like some zoo exhibit?

That he's being punished IS the mixing of cultures. The Indian government will punish him for breaking the law, regardless of whether it would be "illegal" in his culture. (Though the mother's reaction makes it sound as if it isn't exactly deemed "acceptable behavior")


You have a very weak perception of the influence of western culture, apparently.

A very lucid comment, in answer to a very dumb statement.

Bravo.

People will commit atrocities whether there is religion or not.

Like sacrificing their children in black magic rituals?

Oh please. Like Hitler, Mussolini, or Stalin committed all of their terrible acts in the name of superstition/religion.

What an ignorant comment to make.

And more apologists of barbarism crawl up from under their rocks.

People have been sacrificed to shit like socialism and nazism, but they are practically religions to their supporters.

Religion makes it easier to influence stupid people though.

The difference being that was 3 "evil" people. Whereas Religion can make people that aren't considerably evil do evil acts under the guise of belief.

We definitly need this kind of cultural enlightment in Europa!

private plane for him and his entire family to the EU pronto!

But... did it work?

<account of benighted barbarism>

Ah. India.

[Video Games]

Normally I'd say let them rot in prison. But for this, I think he should be put to death.

[Gaidax]

Ah yes religion. I hope eventually humankind will be cured of this cancer infecting people's minds, whether it manifests itself as shamans preaching to simpletons in Narauli or same kind of shamans in different attire preaching to simpletons in Vatican, Mecca or Jerusalem.

Where did I apologize for this shit? This whole situation is fucked up and I think the dude should rot in jail the rest of his life or face execution.

I was merely pointing out how retarded it was for people to just immediately start making assumptions about religion in general when some of the worst shit that has happened in human history has had absolutely nothing to do with religion.

But please, go on with your false accusations and practically worthless response.

Hypnotists can make people do bad things. Drugs can make people do bad things. Black mail can make people do bad things. Torture can make people do bad things. Lovers can make people do bad things. Lack of sleep/paranoia can make people do bad things. Lies/misinformation/jumping to conclusions can make people do bad things.

Singling out religion is about as stupid as it gets when there are shit tons of other things that are just as bad if not worse in today's society as well as throughout history.

But please, go on pushing your agenda.

Those three made people mass murder others in the names of atheism, racial, and political ideology.
Which reinforces the point that people will murder others for whatever reason.

Not all cultures are equal, its why they shouldn't be mixed.

My opinion on it is that culture is entirely a human construct and as such it can and should be changed. You also shouldn't treat outliers and cults as being representative of the cultures of a specific country.

And rather than trying to segregate cultures (which has never worked), we (the Developed Nations of the Americas, Europe and East Asia) should work to modernize their cultures.

Stannis you assho...oh, nevermind.

[ItachiZaku]

Should have vaccinated.

The number of people in "developed" nations like the US and Canada who kill their kids using "Natural remedies" or "faith healing" would disagree. The VAST majority of these kind of things are almost directly religiously influenced.

Most people who are religious find that kind of shit to be retarded. Let's not pretend that "religious" automatically means you're a complete mouth breathing fucktard.

Also, natural remedies have 0 to do with religion. Natural remedies are not directly religiously influenced.

No, it's why they should be mixed, so positive cultural values can outcompete negative cultural values.
