Babu Gogineni is an Indian humanist, rationalist, and human rights activist who has served as Executive Director of the International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU) and is also the founder of, South Asian Humanist Association and Indian Humanists. He is also the founder and owner of Skillguru, a training organization.
On this episode of Pause with Nandini, he discusses the disease of caste in India, South East Asia, among the diaspora, and in cultures around the world, and the transformative role of science in bringing about social change.
Known for debunking myths and exposing religious charlatans of all hues, he brings an interesting perspective on how ‘religion is an enterprise of answers, and science an enterprise of questions’.
As a rationalist, he is equally critical of ‘namby-pamby liberals’, the religious and ‘spiritualists’. While some of his statements may appear provocative, they invite a deeper contemplation about the profound and often negative implications of religion-fuelled power structures within human society.
An engaging and thought-provoking discussion. Do watch and listen, and leave us your thoughts in the comments.
