1. A)Yes , monotheism does mean there is one God & all other gods are false.

But your statement that it also mean " that God is my God " is misleading . It depends on the doctrine of that monotheistic religion .

From Islamic monotheism , Allah never said that he is Creator of Arabs . He is Creator if all in creation . So from a doctrinal pov your statement doens't hold up .

B ) how did u write Advaita = hindu philosophy ? Do u want me to mention difference between Advaita and dvaita ?
" There is no concept of shirk in Hinduism " . This is a red hearing , No One claimed Hinduism also has concept of shirk .
2. Tribal God ? In Islamic doctrine . No where it says Allah is Only God of Quraish tribe .

It was always " ilahi n Naas " , not to mention islamic was always about one's belief & not race/ethnicity , So it was never tribalistic in its Nature .

https://t.co/LC1j5y6CIk
& If someone's doctrine is to be Questioned for being tribalistic , It's Hinduism . It's a ethnico religion . Originated on the banks of Indus river , With special mentions to " Aryans " in 4 vedas.

Even after 4000 yrs , 95% of it's followers live in India .
Looks like a tribalistic religion which remained tribalistic in 2021 🙆
3. A ) So Those who surrender unto Jesus Christ makes no difference ( acc. to Hinduism per ur understanding ) .

https://t.co/CT2KPVSR3Q
B )Christians are as much saved for next life as Hindus are . If suppose all Hindus convert to Christianity & Nothing of Hinduism left on Earth . It wouldn't make a diff. Because Acc. to you , no matter who they pray to . It's Acceptable under Hinduism ( per ur understanding )😉
then it would be hypocritical for any hindu to feel bad if anyone converts to Christianity , Islam or Buddhism .
C ) now , you Quoted 9:23 . Lets see 18:63 of Gita .

Ohhho , this looks like a clear Contradiction as now krishna says surrender exclusively unto him . So that universal consciousness is Krishna ?
Now a Question for Mr. Shakrant , wht if someone rejects Krishna Existed ?

1. For if you say it doesn't matter as long as he does Good karma in life , then Hinduism itself doesn't matter . As people can do good acts without Hinduism . Why should Anyone convert to ur religion ?
2. If you say No Krishan is Brahman & must be loved ( as written in Gita ) , then this nullifies ur first Argument where u said monotheism is about " tht god is my God " .

As it is case with Hinduism that there is One UC , that is my UC & it's Krishan .
4. Again if the Doctrine Always said God is Creator of all things & he is One .

Whether you call it " ek ishawarwaad " or " ek devtavaad " , it doesn't make any difference.

5. My shoe is more real than the imaginary " Universal Consciousness krishna ." Kinder too. Definitely gentler and more worthy of respect than the cruel, vindictive, jealous and insecure imaginary " UC Krishna "

https://t.co/x19NnUX7VB
who didn't stopped kurukshetra war where millions died including Childrens .

Classic strawman & red hearing from u again .

*I don't know how problem of evil in the World is an argument in your favour . As for putting people in " hell " it exist in Hinduism too .
6. Neither hell , whiskey , Sex , heaven , Virgins ( 1000+) , religious war to get heaven etc is Alien to Hinduism .

So how is this an argument in your favour.

You look like a man who doesn't have legs but is going around body shamming others 😕
https://t.co/PIdai6MUOq
7. That's a strawman . Nobody says it's a prove that Allah Exists . It's an argument to show word Allah is not a specific god's name like Krishna or rama .

Allah means God . That's the only thing people mean by this statement !
https://t.co/czOxyrzIY5
Another red hearing which is debunked many times , & not even an argument in your favour as I can say a god who created caste system , Approved slavery & heaven with 1000+ apsaras is certainly fantasy of a Brahmin who wanted to establish a hierarchical Order to rule people.
8. But human slavery isn't a sin in Hinduism as well 😕 ! I'm Amused by your lack of self Awareness .

You're ranting about things which Exists in your religion & from here I Only see you're just repeating the same BS .

Total Worthless . Lol

More from Religion

"Hinduism was one of the world's most easy-going faith traditions, famed for it's non-persecutory history."

I can assure you, it is NOT.

It is neither easy-going, nor non-persecutory. In fact it is the very opposite.

Thread.


Modern Hinduism is a British colonial concept, created in concert with Brahmins, who are at the "apex" of the caste system. The word "Hindoo" in fact, is of Persian origin, meaning a person who lives in the Indus valley.

Colonialists who attempted to study Indian religion in the 18th century (NOT, at the time, Hinduism) were baffled by it. Strata of people living distinctly (the caste system) with overlapping gods didn't fit into their Judeo-Christian understanding of religion.

Which has an ecclesiastical authority, a holy book etc., which Indian religions lacked. In studying "The Hindoo", colonialists prioritized textual sources of knowledge, which is where Brahmins, the priestly caste with a monopoly over education/text come in.

Brahminism was a distinct "religion" (although i don't really want to use the term in this way) that was frankly terrorized of other castes. In fact, the very basis of Brahminism is oppression. Brahmins had scholars who recorded *Brahminical* canon textually.

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x


The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x

Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x

The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x

It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
"I really want to break into Product Management"

make products.

"If only someone would tell me how I can get a startup to notice me."

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
