About the Book
Out of the innumerable boundaries human beings create to themselves, the giant wall of religion appears indispensable in our generation today. The ideological and theological boundaries it built overlay on lives oppressively and stifle the societal growth and paralyze the freedom to life and faith. The perils experienced by the victims that resides by the wall of the religious oppression gnashes in rage to step out of the limiting borders and boundaries constructed by the hegemonic fundamentalists. The articles in this compilation voice out against such menace from the context of the lived realities with an unflinching commitment to freedom of religion and self-expression.
