I Am An Atheist. I Do Not

Religion Is Against Women's Rights And Women's Freedom. In All Societies Women Are Oppressed By All Religions.

I Dont Agree With Those Who Think That The Conflict Is Simply Between Two Religions, Namely Christianity And Islam... To Me, The Key Conflict Is Between Irrational Blind Faith And Rational, Logical Minds.

I Was Well Acquainted With The Calcutta Literary Circle Since I Was 17, When I Lived In Bangladesh And Published And Edited A Little Magazine Called 'sejuti,' For Which Young Poets From Both Bengals Wrote. If You Look At My Life, There Is No Question Of Using Anyone For Anything. I Have Only Got Banned, Blacklisted And Banished.

All I Ever Want Is To Return To Either Bangladesh, My Motherland, Or India, My Adopted Home.

I Support The Rights Of All People To Practice Their Religious Beliefs Privately, But I Oppose The Idea Of Respecting Religions. In Truth, I Have No Respect For Any Religion. I Believe Religion Is Not Compatible With Human Rights, Women's Rights, Or Freedom Of Expression.
