Please mention most important Messenger of your Religion. Also mention any specific sentence you chant to remember him/her and the religion. Please be as sect-specific as possible.
I'll start with what I know: 1. a. Religion : Digambar Jainism b. Messanger : Kundakunda c. Sentence to chant to remember messenger and religion : mangalam bhagavan Virah, mangalam Gautamo ganih,mangalam Kundakundadyah, Jainadharmo 'stu mangalam. ( Mahavira is Auspicious , Gautama is Auspicious , Kundakunda is Auspicious , Jainism is Auspicious ) |

I really like my mail carrier. I'll respect her privacy and not divulge her name but I usually say something like "Hi. You ya doing?"

Let me help out to our Atheist friends. Please correct if I am wrong:
2. Religion : Atheism Messenger : ????? Slogan: Springing forth from these elements itself solid knowledge is destroyed when they are destroyed— after death no intelligence remains. Fire is hot, water cold, refreshingly cool is the breeze of morning; By whom came this variety? They were born of their own nature. That the pleasure arising to man from contact with sensible objects, is to be relinquished because accompanied by pain— such is the reasoning of fools. The kernels of the paddy, rich with finest white grains, What man, seeking his own true interest, would fling them away because of a covering of husk and dust? While life remains, let a man live happily, let him feed on butter though he runs in debt; When once the body becomes ashes, how can it ever return again? |

There's a teeny problem in that atheism is a "religion" as much as bald is a hair color.

Seems like Atheists cannot write a single sentence without a contradiction in it.

Seems like some "believers" cant stop categorizing atheism as a religion.

There is no contradiction in pointing out that atheism isn't a religion. Nor is baldness a hair color.

My post wasn't contemptuous, friend
'Twas just a poor attempt at a humorous way of making a point.

Here it goes again. So Atheists are not believers? Don't they believe their sensual experiences?
