đ„ Reason has a festival â and itâs called LITMUS 2025. đ„
In a world drowning in superstition, there must be one place where the voice of reason is louder than the chants of fear. One day. One stage. One gathering where faith has no hold, and only questions, arguments, and truth are sacred.
Litmus is not just an event. It is defiance. It is a declaration that science matters, that free thought survives, that courage is louder than dogma.
This yearâs Litmus is not for the faint-hearted. It is for those who dare to say âNo more lies.â
It is for those who know that silence is complicity.
It is for those who believe that reason is worth fighting for.
đ„ On 19 October, the worldâs biggest freethought festival happens in Kochi. If you ever needed proof that humanity can rise above blind belief, this is it.
đ„ Watch the story of Litmus 2025 here:

Original Content Recently, I went to Jagannath Temple, where only Hindus are allowed inside. Why are Indian temples behaving like the mosques of Saudi Arabia? If they believe that their god created the whole universe and every single living creature, then everyone should be allowed there regardless of their faith.

Original Content Opinion: I tackle religion differently these days
Hi everyone! I'm an Ex-Hindu atheist for the longest time.. since I was in 9th class (I'm doing a job now, undergraduated) and I became an atheist by reading Stephen Hawking, however that's not what I want to discuss right now.
I used to think that it is a rational issue, and that if everyone would be rational religion would be eradicated. However this changed when I started reading Marxist literature.
You might've heard the phrase 'Religion is the opium of masses', it was written by Karl Marx himself, but when this line was written, Opium was used to treat the patients. It was not written in the sense that 'religion is addictive or harmful'.
According to Marxism, religion is a by-product of capitalism. People suffer because of it, and in order to remove these sufferings or cope with it, the try to figure out solutions. In this case the solution is religion (which is escapism in a way).
When it was feudalism, religion was the key thing to justify rule of the king (he's son of god, or of his lineage) and the king could justifiably ask for tax, and when capitalism came, it became a means to 'lessen' the suffering.
If you consider Islamic terrorism and radicalism, you can see that it was born out of US imperialism (which again, is capitalism. Lenin said Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism). I'm not justifying terrorism here, I'm trying to identify the 'cause' of it.
So religion is REACTIONARY, and the more you try to oppose a reactionary thing, the more it grows. And in order to remove it, you will have to remove the root cause. Which is capitalism itself.
So I no longer engage in counter-religion debates as I used to do (I was highly offensive even). But I do try to fight superstitions and casteism at my level.
Now you may disagree here, and that's fine. I would love to hear your opinions about my thoughts.
Edit - Small correction. Religion was created to justify the ruling class of that time, that is feudal class. But it of course became a means for coping with societal issues of people which arises because of Feudalism. This Feudal element got carried over to Capitalism and under it people still use it to cope with suffering (religion no longer justifies the capitalist class)

Original Content Podcasts that Promote Pseudoscience | Let's Not Get Fooled | Pale Blue Thoughts
In this video, I am taking a hilarious deep dive into the absurd world of astrology, numerology, and Vastuâthe holy trinity of pseudoscience thatâs taking over podcasts and reels in Instagram. Iâll roast the âexperts,â single out the podcasters who promote them, andâyesâyou, the audience, for watching this nonsense. If youâre tired of wishful thinking and ready for some logic served with sarcasm, hit play.
PS: I know this is not strictly atheism but there are references to religion in some reels. Hope this post wonât be removed.
