Its better to be an atheist because no religion teaches humanity tbh. Muslims and Hindus both are anti human.
First of all Hindus who claim that India is the best place to be a non hindu should remember that India is not a hindu state and most of the hindus in India are just hindus by name. Otherwise the orthodox hindus are very radical in nature. Hindus also does have a violent past like muslims and Hindus literally wiped out Buddhism from India. Also the barbaric sati practices and human sacrifices known as Narabali does not proof that Hinduism is peaceful. Also eating beef in hindu kingdoms like the Maratha empire was a capital offence and any non hindu found eating beef was beheaded.
Now coming to Islam, many muslims claim that Islam is a peaceful religion however there is no proof of it. Muslims since its founding have killed millions of non muslims and conquered non muslim lands just for conducting mass murders. Prophet muhammad himself ordered the execution of 800 jews and decapitation of many christians and pagans which was not an act of peace. Even great scholars like Ibn battuta and Rumi glorified killing of infidels by muslim rulers in their works. In the current world muslims especially the radical ones are promoting racism against non muslims. In most of the muslim majority states, non muslim minorities are oppressed and have no rights.
So in the end it can be said that religion is bullcrap.
It is better to be athiest than killing humans .
