The atheist who helped create a new religion

Partha Sarathy is one of the organisers behind Dinkoism, a new Indian religion whose followers worship a cartoon mouse with superpowers. More than 40,000 people like the group’s worldwide Facebook pages and this month they’re even marching to try and become recognised as a religious minority. But Dinkoism was really set up by rationalists in the state of Kerala to parody organised religions and many people have found it offensive.
