'A very good message has been given, sir. It has been proven that there is no religion greater than humanity; those who are poisoning each other in the name of religion should also think that humans can be bad, but no religion is wrong. Man creates religion to live his life, not to hate you sir. Keep spreading love among people and move forward in life,' a third user reacted.
