Hi Nirmukta members,
I am a new member of Nirmukta.Recently I came across these videos on youtube

and I was wondering if we can produce similar animation of popular hindu mythological stories or critique the religious texts. Use of sarcasm and humour can make the atheists point of view more palatable to the youth ( who I believe is the prime demography for our message). One of the hilarious ones and I believe a very good starting point would be the story of Ganesha. It is one of those which is used most frequently to brainwash kids (think Bal ganesh) etc and is so full of logical fallacies that it is a wonder that so many hindus believe in it.
Anyway I was wondering if any one has thought/discussed about it or has the expertise in producing such videos.
A free website for producing animation is xtranormal

However using this website we can only produce the most basic animation with computerized voices, so please check it out and let me know your thoughts.
