Acharya Prashant explains that there are two kinds of religion: the popular, organized belief systems and essential religiosity. Organized religion is often based on stories and belief systems that lack truth, which is why many people, especially the educated youth, are turning toward atheism. He notes that as science and human capability have advanced, the need for juvenile stories about a supreme figure has diminished. This form of atheism is seen as a natural and even positive development when it serves as a counter-narrative to superstition and organized stupidity.
