Those rules that you are trying to reinstate are rules made by men who didn't know anything about the earth, nor anything about all of the other inhabitants of it. How can you not see that?

These are man made rules - made thousands of years ago for the use of the humans who lived thousands of years ago.

Why did Lord Shiva lust after Mohini - how can he be the supreme and worthy of devotion if he did such a thing?

The people of the modern world have evolved past all of that nonsense.

What is your review of "Regent", episode 5 of Season 2 House of the Dragon?

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

A belief in a god is not the problem.

What was the worst decision you ever did?

I do not personally care if you believe in a god or not.
