Hello World

[krish]

I was a practising Hindu until 9th std. I am here thanks to an
inspiring physics teacher who taught me to question anything that I
was told. I was introduced to Nirmukta by donatello. I have been a
passive nirmukta user for sometime now. I find the articles very
useful esp. when it comes to demystifying Hinduism. I have decided
to participate actively and contribute a lot more. I have a Computer
Science background, use and vouch for open source software and can
lend a hand in site maintenance related tasks to begin with. I am
open to other forms of contribution depending no Nirmukta team's
need.

Hi Krishnan, welcome to Nirmukta! We look forward to seeing you more around here

Hey krish, welcome to Nirmukta.

The thing about Hinduism, as many of us realize, is that it is simply a retelling of our common culture in divisive and often superstitious terms. Your commitment to open-source is very much in line with what my personal ideals are about.

Thanks for the welcome. I am still a newbie when it comes to finding the flaw in mumbo-jumbo Hindu philosophy arguments offered by sophisticated Hindu apologists. I guess it is a matter of reading articles and participating in Nirmukta.

Krish, welcome to Nirmukta Forums and hats off to your inspiring physics teacher . we need more such teachers at our schools who can guide their students to the right path.

Welcome. Good to hear that a school teacher had that influence on your, it's a reminder of just how important (good) education is.
