Few days ago, there was this post on HN. Go through it > Screw motivation, what you need is discipline Link: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8976451


Clearly misleading title. What does it have to do with Ramadan/Muslims. You are just trying to create a bad effect. I think clearly this is a publicity stunt. What did you get from writing this? Happiness? Stop hurting other's sentiments.


To everyone, I urge you to stop commenting on religion. With all the comments I read, says the OP is innocent and it's the religion at fault. You do not have the complete knowledge nor the right to just go on insulting other's religion.

The OP is smart enough to use the language and not show the link to the posting that has landed him into the trouble.

I do have sympathy for OP, but this discussion is going way on a different track. I also advice the HN admins to delete this post.


For reference, this appears to be what got him in trouble (this was posted elsewhere in this discussion): http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/18/sex-bloggers-coul...

So yes, it would be hasty to jump to the conclusion that the religion is to blame, but based on what is presented in the article, it's pretty safe to say he wouldn't be imprisoned if he did the exact same thing in a non-Muslim state.


Your story brought tears in my eyes. Thanks for sharing with us all. Surely someone or the other will benefit from your findings. Also, salute to your patience, and the hope that kept you on. I have never been outside India, but if I ever came to US, I will surely meet you.
