You may be wondering why we are using the name ‘The Freethinker’, as it has no match with the domain name? We have a popular online magazine www.thefreethinker.tk and website www.srai.org . We planned to integrate both. That is why we are using the name ‘The Freethinker’ on www.srai.org . We have also a domain name www.the-freethinker.com , which is redirecting visitors to www.srai.org .

Why do’nt people start thinking freely (thinking based on science reason and logic)? Why to believe in supernaturals?
1.When you cannot bring an inch of movement of a little pin without using physical energy (by pushing/ pulling/ by blowing air)and by using supernatural energy alone, how the bloody spiritualists/ theists expect everyone to believe that supernatural god is cause of first motion in matter and universe?
2.When you cannot prove that supernaturals are causes of any events empirically and all events / effects are known to have only physical or empirical causes, then how this theist / religious idiots / bigots claim that supernaturals such as god, soul, influence of celestial bodies and vastu on persons are true and / or scientific?
3.When Astrological predictions were compared to real events, only 10% predictions matched with facts which shows that it is a mere chance. To accept astrology as true/ scientific, atleast 99% predictions should match with real events. Then the people who are believing astrology not the idiots and bigots inspite of this is several times informed by free thinkers?
4.Lord chilkoor Balaji’s devotees claim that this god is 100% fulfiller of their desires and popular as visa god. Would they agree to put their belief to test, by seeing how many devotees get visas in 15 days after they pray to this god. If Atleast 98% gets visas, then one can think that there is some relation between their spiritual prayers and desires fulfilled. Since the devotees are believing without having put their belief to test, are they be not the idiots or bigots?
5.When a vastu pandit claimed that any thing kept in the north east corner of a house the whole property of the owner gets lost within 15 days. When this claim was tested by placing a stick at north east corner of 100 houses for more than 15 days and even more than two months, nothing happened ( that is no decrease in amount of property of owner. Then what does it mean? It surely mean that Vastu is bulshit superstition and are people believing it not the idiots and bigots when they are believing this without empirical proof in favour of it?
Believing any thing without empirical proof is superstition. When empirical proof lack for any event, a person having scientific temper would simply says ” no proof exists and we cannot believe” instead of invoking any proofless (unknown or supernatural)causes into it.
