Immaculate Conception of Nochukuppam
Invoking Religion for mere physical {co}existence is like blaming the condom for one’s impotency. That doesn’t mean that Religion should be kept away from the common man. It certainly requires skill (read: understanding) to operate Religion and to offer faith based answer to some meta-physical questions. That said, the common man can flirt with meta-physics with {un}adulterated version of “Distilled Spirit”. Shit yes, this is Democracy!
In my fantasy world, Buddha can exercise his suffrage without the influence of environment fear of Fundamentalist groups.
