After all creativity is constructing something that was not already seen and enjoyed, All the words in a language are already in the lexicon. The Genius like Shakespeare finds a new Combination of words. It could be a new concept or a new interpretation of the old concept. In the world of religiosity an agnost stands out like a sore thumb or acrobatic thinker. Almost twenty years back we made a film called KUBE MATTHU IYALA in Kannada. The moral of the story was "The one who denies "GOD" will end up as a God himself and there shall be a religion in his name as a punishment. The film was disliked by both. Yet we created a new set of compromise mongers.
At the age of 15 I was influenced by the speeches of E.V.Ramasamy Naicker from Erode of Tamilnadu whose main quotable quote was “If you meet Brahmin and a snake spare the snake“ and ….suggesting ‘Kill the Brahmin.’ I was born of Brahmin parents. My father a Gandhian named all his sons as ‘Hasans.’ My S.S.L.C book had an entry “Religion nil- Caste-Nil-Indian.’ When I finished my law in 1951 my results were withheld as under the Indian Constitution I had to declare my caste and religion for the state to decide whether I was entitled to any preference under the reservation schedules of the Indian Constitution in admission to education or state appointments. Finally I solved the issue by claiming to be born to Brahmin parents practicing no caste or religion myself.
After 63 years of logical thinking I believe that `God’ is a concept of human mind like a `Unicorn’ that its nonexistence in the objective material reality does give me the right to dismiss the concept itself. I have a 16 year old grandson who is a Marxist. The difference between him and me is that when God appears in person and convinces me that He does exist I shall gain new knowledge. My grandson believes that he can shoot God down with an AK 47 and prove His non-existence
