Most Indian atheists are illiterate idiots who don't know what they are babbling about.
I glanced through some of those articles and sure enough they are filled with so many mistakes.
I bet not one of those idiots knows Sanskrit or Tamil and rely on motivated translations for their half baked knowledge (like the article on how brahmins supposedly "destroyed" the bhagavata "revolution").
I have been an atheist (i.e I have no belief in anything supernatural) for years and I feel no need to evangelize others to atheism like the Hitchens-Dawkins variety. I find those types as annoying as the Xtian missionary morons.
Indian atheists fancy themselves to be some great revolutionaries while forgetting that most of what they say had already been said by the Charvaka school of materialists a long time ago under complete freedom, it's another matter that his message never caught on with the masses.
They will also hide under their sofa's when it comes to criticizing either Islam or Christianity.
I consider myself a Hindu very much though and a proud one. I must also mention that the founder of Hindutva Veer Savarkar was himself an agnostic.
Then there was Varsha Bhosle one of the fiery pro Hindu columnists at rediff (sacked for her pro Hindu leanings by the "secular" editor) who was also an agnostic but a very proud Hindu.

They say that buddhism ,upanishadism,bhagavatism,lokayata(Charvaka)was against ritual sacrifice(especially animal sacrifice),caste-system ,costely rituals,earthly pleasure(except lokayata),brahman authority.
he
They claim that brahmans slowly infiltrated in above movements and introduce in the sacred texts the pro-caste atitude,costly puja(replacing sacrifice),guru unquestioned authority (replacing brahman unquestioned command).
Thoose -buddhism and upanishadism transformed in advaita vedanta,bhagavata in vishnuism,
i have a respect for Dawkins for his clarity and for his fight against terrorist religions.
Theese indian atheists claim that if they were born in pakistan will critic islam,or in Italy they will critic catholicism.
