@roymustang.595 So what? Whether I worship 33 million or 33 billion Gods why do you care? Mind your own business.

@Sarthakdas89 The word Koti has many meanings. If you believe Koti means types it is your personal belief. Do not impose it on others.

@Sarthakdas89 All religious books can be edited by anyone who knows Sanskrit language. Anyone can write anything if they get a chance. It does not matter whether there are 330 million or 33 Gods.

@Sarthakdas89 You are imposing your understanding of 33 Koti on others. There is no need to do that.

@Sarthakdas89 Do not believe too much on what is written in books. Take only what is useful for you and leave what is not.

@Sarthakdas89 Narrative means story. I find it very strange that as technology is advancing people are increasingly fighting over narratives. Technology was supposed to free humanity from fantasy world but it has clearly failed to do so.

@Sarthakdas89 Well meaning advice is often considered as imposition. If you want to go down that road so badly nothing can stop you. Experience will teach you like I learned my lessons.

@Sarthakdas89 Science evolves on questioning the existing body of knowledge on the basis of limitations and gaps identified by rigorous review of existing scientific evidence. There is no role for any narrative in science. The role of philosophy in science is limited to the approach adopted towards solving a problem by the scientific method.

@Sarthakdas89 All the fight in today's world is over narratives and I think it is going to get physical very soon. Right now the only thing stopping a bloodbath on the streets is the fear of losing one's job or business and one's family. Once people get desperate enough they are going to start killing each other over narratives. The coming global recession may well be the trigger.

@Sarthakdas89 Newton's 'words' were not stories. He demonstrated his theories and they are still used to analyze real world problems. This is the first time in my life I am hearing that scientific theories are narratives.

@Sarthakdas89 Narrative is a story. You can completely ignore facts and make a narrative to suit your politics. You can't do that in science. Of course a lot of scientific research being done today for the sake of obtaining funding from generous government and private benefactors does tend to be more of political narrative than actual science. Even then the creative writing part happens in interpretation of the data.

@Sarthakdas89 Wars are being justified today. All the competing narratives in the world today are about who is the victim and who is the oppressor in a historical or currently ongoing conflict.
